OpenAI recently introduced SearchGPT, which is ChatGPT's official search engine. However, the company is considering developing a web browser that combines with ChatGPT and has exclusive power search features. This new browser would likely compete with Google Chrome and could include a variety of eCommerce websites and apps as its partners.
OpenAI could create an in-house web browser: Key details
According to a recent report by The Information (via Reuters), OpenAI has been in talks with various app and website developers, such as Conde Nast, Redfin, Eventbrite, and Priceline, to create its web browser. As per the report, these app developers have also prototyped the design of this browser.
Developing a web browser could further boost the usage of ChatGPT, as a native integration could allow for a seamless operation of the chatbot with a browser for curation of various topics. The move could also create a major competitor for Google, which commands a major share of the browser and search market with the Chrome browser.
Google has been ramping up its artificial intelligence capabilities since 2022 with its Gemini AI tool integration into its products. Currently, Google controls about 90% of the online search market with Chrome, with more than 50% of these users coming from the US market. However, sources caution that OpenAI is still far from launching its browser at the moment, and we may have to wait for more time for it to become a reality.
