OpenAI throws the weighs to Chrome (if justice finally forces Google to sell its browser)

This Monday began in the United States a trial in which the consequences of the historical sentence issued in August last year by the judge will be settled Amit mehtawho ruled that Google It incurred monopolistic practices in the territory of internet searches. In this trial, in which the Internet giant faces the United States Department of Justice, a plethora of sanctions for Google, but the most severe is undoubtedly the possibility that the company is forced to eventually detach its Chrome browser. AND If that sanction ends up effectively crystallizing, there is already a company interested in buying the celebrated Google browser. And that potential buyer is nothing more and nothing less than openaithe chatgpt matrix.

During the second day of the trial that is celebrated by the seas against Google he took part as witness Nick Turley, Head of Product of Chatgpt in Openai. And there he said that the company led by Sam Altman would make a purchase offer by Chrome effective if in the trial it would finally be forced to strip Chrome to put sticks on the wheels to its monopoly in the field of searches.

Even when OpenAI has as a partner in the Microsoft search engine, it seems that The company would not be fully satisfied with the quality of the results on the table by the Redmond company subsidiary (which Turley did not mention in any case at any time).

«We believe that having multiple partners, particularly to Google, would allow us to provide a better product to our users«, Openai would have communicated to the Mountain company in an email revealed in the course of the trial. However, Google would finally have ruled out the possibility of cooperating with OpenAi for considering that an alliance of these characteristics could end up hurting its domain in the field of searches.

Openai has confirmed that he would bid for Chrome if Google was forced to get rid of his browser

Turley appeared at the trial against Google because one of the measures that are studied these moments to sanction the company is to force the company led by SURDAR PICHAI A Share the data of your almighty search engine to its competitors. And Turley declared that this measure would effectively contribute to restore competition in the area of ​​networks in the network of networks.

Even when Judge Amit Mehta has expressed some doubts about the United States Department of Justice Department to force Google to get rid of Chrome, If this sanction became a reality, Openai would not have any pruritus when take control of the famous browser.

Turley said that if Google was forced to sell Chrome, Openai would enter the struggle to buy the Mountain View company browser.

Openai would currently be working on the development of its own browser (Based on the Chromium open source project) To compete directly with chrome. And several months ago the company recruited, in fact, the former Google Ben Goodger and Darin Fischer, who both worked at the launch of Chrome.

Chrome’s acquisitionwhich has 4,000 million users to its vera and has a market share of 67%, would undoubtedly provide an important competitive advantage to OpenAIwhich would probably integrate chatgpt into the browser. The data lodged in Chrome would also allow OpenAi to develop agents of AI capable of executing a whole myriad of tasks on the name of the user.

So much and everything, and even when Openai would bid for Chorme if Google was forced to detach himself from his browser, Mountain View’s company insists that Chrome could not survive as an independent company and will almost surely appeal if the courts force him to sell his famous browser.
