Technology Updates: ChatGPT Atlas browser puts AI right where you need it, but can you trust it?

ChatGPT:


OpenAI has launched ChatGPT Atlas, a new browser for Mac that embeds its AI chatbot directly into users’ web experiences. The free browser allows users to access ChatGPT on any site without switching tabs — for example, while browsing Airbnb listings, one could instantly ask the AI to plan a trip or suggest nearby activities. For paying users, an agent mode can perform more advanced tasks, though OpenAI acknowledges potential security and reliability risks.

OpenAI emphasizes that Atlas was designed with safety and transparency in mind. Agent mode cannot access other Mac apps, install extensions, or act on sensitive websites without user confirmation. A logged-out mode limits data exposure, and users can control which pages the AI can view. Despite these protections, OpenAI admits that AI agents remain vulnerable to malicious instructions embedded in webpages or emails, which could lead to unintended actions or data theft.

Atlas also introduces “browser memories,” which remember details from visited pages to offer smarter responses — such as building to-do lists or continuing research. These memories, along with search queries, stay private to the user’s ChatGPT account and can be reviewed, archived, or deleted anytime. OpenAI states that it does not use this data for training unless users opt in.

CEO Sam Altman describes Atlas as a reimagining of how browsers can integrate AI, calling it a “once-a-decade opportunity” to reinvent web interaction. Currently available on macOS for all ChatGPT users (Free to Pro tiers), Atlas will soon expand to Windows, iOS, and Android, promising a seamless blend of browsing and AI assistance — albeit one that still requires cautious use.

Opinion:

Will be using it as part of the trifecta of browsers; Safari, Chrome and now ChatGPT Atlas.

Will see if there's any differences between the web version and this.
