"The browser wars are heating up again, this time with AI in the driver's seat. OpenAI just launched Atlas, a ChatGPT-powered browser that lets users surf the web using natural language and even includes an "agent mode" that can complete tasks autonomously. It's one of the biggest browser launches in recent memory, but it's debuting with an unsolved security flaw that could expose passwords, emails, and sensitive data."
"Watch as Max Zeff, Anthony Ha and Sean O'Kane break down Atlas's debut, the broader wave of alternative browsers, the AWS crash that broke much of the internet, and more of the week's startup and tech news on TechCrunch's Equity podcast. Subscribe to Equity on Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the casts. You also can follow Equity on X and Threads, at @EquityPod."
AI is driving renewed competition in web browsers. OpenAI launched Atlas, a ChatGPT-powered browser that enables natural-language web browsing and includes an agent mode that can autonomously complete tasks. Atlas is a major browser release but contains an unresolved security flaw that could expose passwords, emails, and other sensitive data. A broader wave of alternative browsers is emerging alongside Atlas. A recent AWS outage disrupted large portions of the internet. Equity covers Atlas's debut, the alternative-browser trend, the AWS crash, and weekly startup and tech news, with subscription options and social follow at @EquityPod.
