OpenAI has introduced ChatGPT Atlas, a Chromium‑based browser that places its AI chatbot at the center of the web experience. Designed for macOS initially, the browser offers a minimalist interface, integrated search, and an “Ask ChatGPT” feature that can answer questions about the current page.

OpenAI introduced ChatGPT Atlas, an AI‑powered web browser built on Chromium that places ChatGPT at the center of the browsing experience.
