OpenAI introduced a new free web browser for macOS yesterday, built with ChatGPT at its core.
This browser, named ChatGPT Atlas, follows the company’s introduction of a web search in ChatGPT last year; today, it is one of the most used features.
Atlas allows the user to complete tasks on the browser without copying and pasting or leaving the page. The Windows, iOS, and Android versions “are coming soon.”
ChatGPT Atlas understands what the user is looking at and stores this information in its memory, allowing conversations to draw on past chats.
It also remembers history and context from the sites visited. It means that, for example, the user can ask: “Find all the job postings I was looking at last week and create a summary of industry trends so I can prepare for interviews.
Atlas can also work while browsing using agent mode, automating tasks, researching and analyzing, and planning events or booking appointments as you browse. This feature is available in preview for Plus, Pro, and Business users.
This feature of the ChatGPT agent comes natively in Atlas.
OpenAI warns about the risks of agents as they might hide malicious instructions in a website or email, overriding the ChatGPT agent’s intended behavior. “This could lead to stealing data from sites you’re logged into or taking actions you didn’t intend.”
As outlined in the ChatGPT agent system card, we’ve run thousands of hours of focused red-teaming and have placed a particular emphasis on safeguarding ChatGPT from such attacks, including designing our safeguards so they can be quickly adapted to novel attacks.
“Our safeguards will not stop every attack that emerges as AI agents grow in popularity.”
