Two major artificial intelligence (AI) companies are reportedly launching web browsers to rival Google Search’s dominance. Perplexity AI announced Wednesday that it launched Comet, an independent search engine for Mac and Windows that bypasses traditional browsers like Google Chrome or Apple’s Safari.

OpenAI has its work cut out – Google Chrome, which is used by more than 3 billion people, currently holds more than two-thirds of the worldwide browser market, according to web analytics firm StatCounter. Apple’s second-place Safari lags far behind with a 16 percent share. Last month, OpenAI said it had 3 million paying business users for ChatGPT.

OpenAI will reportedly release its own web browser, putting it in position to challenge Google’s long dominance in web search.
