Microsoft-backed (MSFT) OpenAI is near launching an AI-powered web browser that seeks to challenge Google Chrome (GOOGL), Reuters’ Kenrick Cai, Krystal Hu, and Anna Tong report, citing three people familiar with the matter. The browser is set to release in the coming weeks and intends to use AI to fundamentally alter how users browse the web, and will also give OpenAI more direct access to user data, the authors say. The Fly notes that AI company Perplexity announced on Wednesday the launch of its AI-powered web browser Comet. Apple (AAPL) is another publicly traded company with its own web browser.
