OpenAI just made browsing smarter and smoother with a major update to ChatGPT Atlas AI, its revolutionary AI-powered browser. Launched last month on macOS, ChatGPT Atlas AI now packs fresh features that pull users away from Chrome and Safari. Vertical tabs, easy extension imports, and Google search integration top the list, turning the browser into a true ChatGPT companion that understands your every click.
This rollout hits at the perfect time. With AI browsers exploding in popularity, OpenAI targets Mac loyalists who crave seamless AI help without extra tabs or apps. Product manager Adam Fry says the tweaks fix real user gripes, making ChatGPT Atlas AI feel like home from day one. Download it free at chatgpt.com/atlas; it's ready for Free, Plus, Pro, and Go users worldwide.

OpenAI rolled out nine upgrades that boost usability and speed.
Here's the breakdown:
- Vertical tabs: Adjust tabs sideways in a resizable sidebar for clutter-free browsing.
- Extension importing: Pull in your Chrome or Edge add-ons during setup – no manual rebuild needed (coming soon for current users).
- iCloud Passkeys: Sync and use Apple's secure passkeys across sites for effortless logins.
- Google as default search: Ditch Bing; set Google for all queries right in settings.
- Multi-tab selection: Shift + Click to grab several tabs at once and manage them quickly.
- Smarter tab switching: Toggle Control + Tab to jump to your last-used tab, not just the next one.

ChatGPT Atlas AI stands out with its built-in Agent mode (preview for Plus/Pro). Approve it, and ChatGPT handles tasks like form-filling, research gathering, or travel booking across tabs. Optional browser memories remember your sessions for personalised tips, view, edit, or wipe them anytime. Privacy stays tight: Opt out of data training, and site deletions clear AI recalls too.
Windows, iOS, and Android versions are in the works, but Mac leads the pack. Fry teases more tweaks next week, including dockable dev tools. In the AI browser wars against Google and Perplexity, ChatGPT Atlas AI pulls ahead with deep integration that feels magical. Mac users, update now and let AI redefine your web world, it's browsing, but make it brilliant.
