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.

• 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
