Key Takeaways
- OpenAI is reportedly considering creating a web browser that can compete with Chrome.
- ChatGPT’s AI features integrated into the web browser can create serious competition for Chrome.
- OpenAI is hiring former Chrome developers, and is reportedly in talks with Samsung to integrate ChatGPT into its devices.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT is one of the most popular AI chats out there. It has been putting a lot of effort into the AI space in recent years, and now more than ever, its eye is on improving Google’s Chrome. Now a new report from The Information suggests that OpenAI is considering the idea of creating a web browser, which could challenge the market dominance of Google Chrome.
When or if this web browser will happen is up in the air, as it’s still in its early stages — and it may be a long time before OpenAI launches it. But, the idea of a web browser fully integrated with ChatGPT sounds interesting and could be a game changer.

OpenAI should do it
ChatGPT’s AI features in the web browser can make users switch
OpenAI and Google are already competing with ChatGPT and Gemini, but OpenAI is creating a web browser, integrated with its own. AI search engineit will take great pictures on Google.
So far, we know that OpenAI has hired two employees who have played a major role in developing Google’s Chrome, Ben Goodger and Darin Fisher (via TechRadar). According to statcounter, Chrome has a 66.7 percent share of the browser market worldwide, so hiring two key players who were previously involved seems like a decent first step.
There was also a recent report from a South Korean publication, the Korea Herald, that OpenAI is in talks with Samsung to integrate ChatGPT’s AI capabilities into Samsung devices, as it recently did Apple Intelligence on iPhones. Samsung is a key player in the Android ecosystem, and the tech giant has worked closely with Google for years. This could be another move from OpenAI that shows it is willing to take on Google and its Gemini AI technology.
I think OpenAI should take a shot at making a web browser. Google is currently facing problems with Chrome and the Department of Justice (DOJ), along with ChatGPT’s AI capabilities, OpenAI has the potential to make a significant dent in the tech giant’s browser market share.
