"OpenAI has introduced ChatGPT Atlas, a new web browser that integrates ChatGPT into the browsing experience. Rather than functioning as a separate assistant that users have to switch to, Atlas incorporates the model throughout the browsing process. It understands web pages, answers questions, and assists with tasks in real-time. The company describes Atlas as "a browser built with ChatGPT at its core," designed to bring the assistant into the same space where users already read, research, and work."
"ChatGPT's memory is integrated, so the assistant can recall context from past visits or ongoing projects. For example, it can summarize the job listings a user looked at last week or continue research where it left off. OpenAI says browser memories are completely optional and can be viewed, archived, or deleted at any time. Agent mode, first introduced in ChatGPT earlier this year, also arrives in Atlas."
ChatGPT Atlas places the ChatGPT model inside a full web browser, enabling real-time understanding of pages, on-screen analysis, summaries, and in-page task assistance without switching contexts. Integrated memory allows the assistant to recall past visits and ongoing project context, summarize previously viewed job listings, and resume research, with browser memories optional and user-manageable. Agent mode enables multi-step automation like gathering information and filling forms, while safety restrictions prevent code execution, extension installation, and access to external files and require pauses on sensitive pages. Early user reactions are mixed, with some users cautious about automation and others seeing niche use cases.
