I think this will be really interesting, and if search is faster than Google Chrome, it will really be a big blow to Google.

i do think openAI has lacks real focus/strategy and they've been throwing spaghetti on the wall- whether acquiring windsurf to compete with claude code or going after hardware. Though they do it with boldness and speed, so hats off to that. My bets are on Google and Meta long term.

Like I have been saying over the last few months, OpenAI realize, to their credit, llm as a service doesn’t have a future and so they are getting into vertical integration more and more. The genetic browsing is a key aspect of the whole story but they want to get into more. The browser release seems odd though. It feels to me they rearchitected the browser to fit into the genetic browsing solution and they are just taking advantage of that and releasing it as a product. It could become the default standard for such solutions but it sure it will have legs beyond that. This is clearly a play to get more data from their users and improve their “search” product which is the chatgpt app.
