Perplexity, Web Browser and Google Chrome
Digest more
The browser is slated to launch in the coming weeks and aims to use artificial intelligence to fundamentally change how consumers browse the web.
Perplexity and OpenAI are entering the browser market with AI-driven solutions targeting Google Chrome's market share. Perplexity's Comet offers a unique chat interface, while OpenAI's upcoming browser could streamline online tasks.
OpenAI is reportedly developing its own AI-powered web browser, posing a potential challenge to Google Chrome. More details here.
If OpenAI does start offering users access to its own browser, it would be following Perplexity, which released a browser with agentic AI functions on Wednesday. That browser, Comet, is currently only available to those with a $200 per month Perplexity Max subscription. Opera also released a "fully agentic" browser back in May.
The browser wars could be about to heat up in a big way, with ChatGPT-maker OpenAI apparently set to launch its own web browser in the coming weeks. According to Reuters, that could put significant pressure on Google Chrome and potentially “fundamentally change how consumers browse the web.”
