AI Browsers Face Old Problem: How to Make Money

[chainsniff]

Despite excitement around AI-driven browsers like ChatGPT Atlas and Comet, analysts say it’s tough to dethrone Safari, Chrome, or Firefox.
TechCrunch’s Sean O’Kane notes most companies fail to monetize browsers, often burning cash before building sustainable models.
The difference now: OpenAI has “infinite money,” allowing it to test long-term strategies without immediate profits.
Still, it’s unclear if AI browsing can attract everyday users — or if it’s a tool built mainly for tech enthusiasts.
