OpenAI launched its new ChatGPT Atlas browser. “This is an AI-powered web browser built around ChatGPT,” OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman said during a livestreamed event on Tuesday.

<h2>A new AI-driven browser experience</h2>As per OpenAI, this new browser allows users to open a ChatGPT sidebar in any window to summarise pages, analyse data, compare products, or complete online tasks such as booking a trip or making purchases.&nbsp;In its agent mode, ChatGPT Atlas can interact directly with websites on behalf of users, performing complex tasks from start to finish.&nbsp;The browser is currently available globally on macOS and will soon roll out to Windows, iOS, and Android, OpenAI said in its official announcement.&nbsp;<h2>Competing in a crowded AI browser market</h2>The launch of ChatGPT Atlas places OpenAI in direct competition with a growing number of AI browsers such as Perplexity’s Comet and Opera’s Neon. These browsers integrate AI tools capable of summarising content, filling forms, and drafting code to make browsing more efficient.&nbsp;Shares of Alphabet, the parent company of Google, dropped 1.6 per cent in afternoon trading following the announcement, reflecting market reaction to the new competition.&nbsp;Google has already begun integrating its Gemini AI assistant into Chrome for U.S. users, with plans to extend support to its iOS app soon.&nbsp;<h2>A challenge to Chrome’s dominance</h2>ChatGPT Atlas represents OpenAI’s effort to expand beyond its core chatbot technology. Since the debut of ChatGPT in 2022, the company has sought new ways to grow amid increasing competition from Google, Anthropic, and other AI startups.&nbsp;By embedding AI directly into the browsing experience, OpenAI aims to create a more interactive and intelligent internet tool one that goes beyond traditional search engines.&nbsp;A recent Bloomberg report noted that this shift comes at a time when Big Tech companies are heavily investing in generative AI, reshaping the online information ecosystem.&nbsp;In a related development, a U.S. federal judge ruled in September that Google can continue paying partners to promote its search engine, acknowledging that generative AI now poses a serious challenge to traditional search dominance.

Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, till recently was on a mission to cure cancer—or at least that’s the headline goal. But apparently, curing cancer can wait, because on Tuesday (Oct 14) he signed off on another high-priority initiative: letting OpenAI's ChatGPT make porn. Yes, you read that right. Altman took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce that ChatGPT will now “treat adult users like adults.”<h2>What did Sam Altman say?</h2>In an X post, OpenAI CEO Altman said that they had made ChatGPT "pretty restrictive" to make sure they were "being careful with mental health issues". However, now they've apparently "realised" that staying sensitive to mental health issues made the platform "less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems".

A 13-year-old in Florida asked ChatGPT, "How to kill my friend in the middle of class", leading to his arrest. An AI-powered school monitoring system called Gaggle immediately sent an alert, after which a school police officer came to his class. NBC-affiliate WFLA reported that the teen, a student at Southwestern Middle School in Deland, was taken away by the officer. When asked about the question he posed to ChatGPT, the student claimed that he was &nbsp;“just trolling” a friend. However, with the shooting incidents on the rise in America, the school did not take it lightly. Local police from the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office arrested the teen, and he was booked at the county jail. A video of the student being arrested is also doing the rounds on social media.&nbsp;<h2>Police ask parents to remain vigilant about their child's activity on ChatGPT</h2>WFLA reported that the police called on the parents to remain alert about what their children are doing on the internet and with ChatGPT. They asked them to check on the kids to ensure they do not use these tools in this manner. The local sheriff’s office said, "Another 'joke' that created an emergency on campus. Parents, please talk to your kids so they don’t make the same mistake." In this case, what helped the school authorities take action was Gaggle.&nbsp;Gaggle is a device installed on school devices which can detect a student's behaviour that might be a cause for worry. Their actions could either be directed towards themselves or others. Gaggle also helps block inappropriate content on devices. While Gaggle might prove to be a boon in some cases, it has mostly garnered criticism. It has led to countless false alarms in the past. Critics also say that it creates a surveillance state-like environment on school campuses.

A stolen Lamborghini Huracan EVO has been recovered in the United States with the unexpected help of artificial intelligence. The supercar, worth over $200,000, belonged to Andrew Garcia from Orange County, California.&nbsp;According to US local media reports, the car was stolen in December 2023 as part of a rental scam where thieves used false documents to re-register luxury vehicles and sell them on the black market.&nbsp;For almost two years, Garcia had no leads. Then, in August 2025, he received an Instagram message from a stranger who claimed to have seen the vehicle. The person shared photos and said they found Garcia’s business card inside the car.

<h2>How ChatGPT Analysed the Clues</h2>Instead of calling the police immediately, Garcia decided to test an unusual approach. He uploaded the images to ChatGPT, asking it to ignore the Lamborghini itself and instead study the background details such as blurred vehicles, street signs and vegetation.&nbsp;ChatGPT analysed the photos and suggested possible regions. Garcia combined this with Google’s geolocation tools, narrowing the search to Denver, Colorado.&nbsp;Once Garcia had enough evidence, he contacted Denver police. Officers checked the vehicle’s VIN and confirmed its identity. The car was soon returned to its owner.&nbsp;Denver police said this case shows how consumer AI tools can support traditional investigations, although they stressed that official reporting remains vital.

Lamborghini Huracan stolen two years ago

<h2>AI in the Headlines for Other Reasons</h2>ChatGPT has also been trending for another reason. Recently, a Reddit user shared screenshots where ChatGPT praised a Chinese rival, DeepSeek, for its accessibility and depth. The unusual exchange sparked online debate, since AI models rarely acknowledge competitors openly.&nbsp;Experts note that as AI platforms expand, unusual use cases from helping trace stolen cars to surprising industry comparisons are becoming part of daily conversations.

A stolen Lamborghini Huracan EVO was found in the US after its owner used ChatGPT to analyse photo clues. The AI spotted details that helped police trace the $200,000 supercar. Know more about this story.

A California couple has filed the first wrongful death lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging that its AI chatbot, ChatGPT, encouraged their 16-year-old son to take his own life. The lawsuit claims the chatbot validated the teenager’s suicidal thoughts instead of guiding him toward professional help. OpenAI says it is reviewing the case and expressed sympathy, acknowledging that its systems have failed in sensitive situations before.

OpenAI sued: Lawsuit claims ChatGPT 'encouraged suicide'

Elon Musk has filed a lawsuit against Apple and OpenAI, accusing them of conspiring to suppress competition in the AI space—specifically targeting his AI startup, xAI, and its chatbot Grok.

The lawsuit, filed in Texas federal court, claims that Apple’s exclusive deal to integrate OpenAI’s ChatGPT into iPhones has effectively blocked xAI’s products from fair visibility on the App Store. Musk argues that this “lock-up” of generative AI access harms consumer choice and innovation.

Artificial Intelligence chatbots these days can answer anything for you. I wanted to see if they can solve one of the most complex issues in today's world, the Russia-Ukraine war. I found most answers to be similar, exposing the biases and sources of these chatbots. And I found a key gap in all the answers. Let me break it down for you.<h2>I started with Gemini, and here's what it said on resolving Ukraine war</h2>Gemini, the chatbot owned by Google parent Alphabet, called Ukraine war "deeply complex, shaped by long-standing security, territorial, and political disputes," (as if I didn't know that). It said peace will need to address five core issues:<h3>1. Territorial disputes:</h3>Ukraine is seeking the return to its 1991 borders and rejects territorial concessions, while some proposals suggest land-for-peace compromises.<h3>2. Security guarantees:</h3>Ukraine seeks strong Western-backed protections against future aggression by Russia. Full NATO membership for Ukraine is unlikely, but alternatives include NATO-like arrangements, whereas Russia opposes any NATO ties for Ukraine, given its own national security concerns.<h3>3. Ceasefire:</h3>A pause in war is a first step, but timing and conditions are still disputed. While Ukraine favours an immediate ceasefire, Russia continues fighting even during negotiations.<h3>4. Sanctions and legal issues:</h3>Western sanctions on Russia are central to peace talks, and a deal will have to balance sanctions relief with upholding international law regarding Russia’s occupation.<h2>5. Demilitarisation and neutrality:</h2>Russia wants Ukraine to stay out of NATO and adopt armed neutrality, which some say would be similar to Switzerland.<h3>What are the obstacles for peace?</h3>Mutual distrust due to failed past agreements like the Minsk Accords, and conflicting goals are the impediments. Russia wants control and limits to Ukraine’s Western alignment, while Kyiv insists on full sovereignty and territorial integrity. Domestic politics in all involved nations are shaping public opinion and negotiation limits.<a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/russia-ukraine-war-war-spurs-ukrainian-startups-producing-missiles-drones-1755836068435/embed">https://www.wionews.com/videos/russia-ukraine-war-war-spurs-ukrainian-startups-producing-missiles-drones-1755836068435/embed</a><h2>What did other chatbots say about resolving the Ukraine war?</h2>After checking with Gemini, I went to four other chatbots: ChatGPT, Grok, Perplexity AI and DeepSeek AI. To my surprise, most of them gave similar answers, and even their sources were similar (more about that later). So for your easy understanding, I only picked what’s different in their answers.&nbsp;Also read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/why-trump-imposed-tariffs-on-india-citing-russian-oil-purchase-press-secretary-leavitt-reveals-real-reason-1755664123235">Why Trump imposed tariffs on India citing Russian oil purchase?

This shows the limitations in AI model training. Russian arguments and sources were almost nil. This also reflects that Ukraine won the propaganda war while Russia, in spite of having a massive state media apparatus, could not bring its argument to the limelight. Clearly, a shadow banning of Russian outlets online by the search engines, owned by the very players who also the parents of most of these chatbots, is playing a role. Therefore, one would not hear much about the Russian-speaking regions of Ukraine, which possibly wanted self-rule or autonomy for years.

A balanced approach is lacking and pro-West bias is evident. Any solution to the war as given by the chatbots will not be agreeable to Russia. It exposes the need for a deeper understanding of the long-standing issues between Russia and the West that ignited the conflict. Moscow sees Ukraine as the amplifier of Western military interests across its border. Putin's lifelong fear was the flanking of his nation by the West.
