OpenAI exec says the company would buy Google’s Chrome browser if offered the chance


An OpenAI exec said during Google’s antitrust trial this week that OpenAI would be interested in buying Google’s Chrome browser, were it made available for sale.

The executive, ChatGPT chief Nick Turley, said in a court hearing Tuesday that acquiring Chrome would allow OpenAI to “offer a really incredible experience” and “introduce users into what an AI-first [browser] looks like,” per Bloomberg.

Turley had been called by the Justice Department to testify as part of a trial aimed at determining what business practices Google must modify after a judge found the company monopolized the online search market. The Justice Department has asked that Google be forced to divest Chrome.

OpenAI has reportedly considered working on a web browser to compete with Chrome. The company went so far as to hire ex-Google developers Ben Goodger and Darin Fisher, who worked on the original Chrome project, several months ago.
