OpenAI is reportedly exploring the possibility of creating its own web browser to compete with Google Chrome. This potential initiative showcases OpenAI's desire to broaden its influence beyond AI development, using its technological capabilities to challenge established sectors.
The proposed new browser would incorporate OpenAI's sophisticated language models, like GPT, into the browsing experience, providing users with intelligent search and assistance functions. Features such as automated summarisation, real-time translation, and context-aware search could distinguish the browser from others.
Moreover, OpenAI's intended web browser would focus on privacy and personalisation to set itself apart from existing options like Google Chrome. The new browser is said to feature enhanced encryption measures to protect user data.
With a commitment to minimal data collection, the proposed OpenAI browser aims to gather only necessary user information, prioritising user consent and transparency.
OpenAI has already engaged in discussions with various website and app developers, including Condé Nast, Redfin, Eventbrite, and Priceline, about building the web browser.
Additionally, OpenAI is negotiating with Samsung to incorporate its AI features into Samsung devices, potentially challenging Google's dominance in the mobile sector.
This collaboration with Samsung seeks to introduce functionalities such as ChatGPT and other AI technologies to millions of Samsung users, possibly rivalling Google Assistant. This partnership may also extend to Samsung's forthcoming AR smart glasses and other devices.
To recall, in August of this year, the messaging app Telegram launched its own in-app browser that supports multiple tabs, making Web3 accessible to nearly a billion users. It also introduced a Mini App Store.
