Hahahaha fuck off
New product is part of OpenAI’s broader strategy to capture data on users’ web behavior
So, not really a new browser but new spyware..
Hallucinations built right into it?
You can download eight other browsers to cross-check each other! It’s the future!
I assume it's been vibe coded, sauce for the goose being good with the gander and all that.
ETA: /s just to be clear.
It's not a new browser if it's built from the same. Chromium baseline.

It is based on Chromium according to the article.
Edited to quote the article:
OpenAI's browser is built atop Chromium, Google's own open-source browser code, two of the sources said.
Firefox for the win!
Lol. Right. I'll get right on using browser made by an a. I company. What a friggin joke
