Openi is nearing the release of an AI -powered web browser that will challenge the alphabet market domaining Google Chrome, three people aware of the matter told Reuters.
All three said the browser will start in the coming weeks, and its purpose is to use artificial intelligence to how users browse the web. This will give Openi the basis for Google’s success: more direct access to user data.
If the chat is adopted by 500 million weekly active users of GPT, Open’s browser can put pressure on the key component of Google’s advertisement Google. Chrome is an important pillar of alphabetical advertising business, which makes nearly three -quarters of its income, as Chrome provides user information more efficient and profitable to help with alphabetical target advertising, and provides Google as a default search traffic to its engine.
Two sources said that the Open AI browser is designed to keep some user conversations in a native chat interface like Chat GPT instead of clicking on the websites.
A source said that this browser is part of a wider strategy for consumers’ personal and working life by Openi.
Open refuses to comment.
Sources refused to identify because they do not have the power to talk about the matter publicly.
Under the head of the Entrepreneur Sam Altman, Openai promoted the tech industry with the launch of his AI Chat Boat Chattegot at the end of 2022. Following the initial victory, Open has faced stiff competition from rivals, including Google and Startup Entropic, and is looking for new development areas.
In May, Openi said it would enter the hardware domain, which would pay $ 6.5 billion to buy AI Devices Startup, IO from Apple’s former design chief, Jonny Iow.
People say a web browser allows the openness to integrate its AI agent products, such as operator, in the browsing experience, and enables the browser to perform the work on behalf of the user.
Browser access to a user’s web activity will make it an ideal platform for AI “agents” that can take steps by them, such as baking or filling out the protection, directly to the websites they use.
Fierce competition
According to the Web Analytics firm State Counter, the Openi has finished its work – Google Chrome, which uses more than 3 billion people, currently contributes more than two -thirds of the browser market worldwide. Apple’s second place safari is far behind with 16 % shares. Last month, Openi said it had 3 million payments for Chat GPT.
Anxiety, which is a popular AI search engine, launched an AI browser, Domcity, which was able to take action by the user. Two other AI startups, browser company and Bahadur, have released the AI -powered AI -powered AI -powered AI.
Chrome’s role in providing USer user information to the alphabetical target advertising is more efficient and profitable, that the Department of Justice has demanded discrimination after the decision of an American judge last year that Google parents are illegal in search of online.
Two sources said that according to Google’s open source browser code, the opening browser was built on the chromium. Chromium is the source code for Google Chrome, as well as many competitive browsers, including Microsoft Age and Opera.
Last year, Openi hired two long -time Google Vice Presidents, part of the original team to produce Google Chrome. This information was first to report to their fare, and earlier, Openi considered the construction of the browser.
An Open AI executive testified in April that the company would be interested in buying chrome if anti -trust enforcers were able to sell sales.
Google has not offered Chrome for sale. The company has said it intends to appeal the decision that it has a monopoly.
A source said that the openness decided to make its browser instead of just a “plugin” in the upper part of the browser of another company, to overcome its data.
