In this episode of ChatGPT Curious I walk you through OpenAI’s newest release, Atlas, a web browser launched October 21st for Mac users. I cover how to set it up, what you can actually do with it, and why I think it’s largely redundant to ChatGPT itself. This episode unpacks both the function and business play (in my opinion) behind Atlas, and how it might be signaling an AI slow-down.
Main Topics Covered
- Introduction to Atlas
- Setup and initial questions
- Interface overview (Home, Globe, Images, Videos, News)
- Emphasizing agent mode
- My early impressions of redundancy and money motives
- Concerns about unbundling features
- Highlights and bugs from personal testing
- The “Ask ChatGPT” feature in action
- My two pennies on the future of AI tools
- Recent ChatGPT use: Rachel’s Gemini Win
