OpenAI has introduced an update to ChatGPT Atlas, incorporating vertical tabs that resemble the layout of the Arc browser. This enhancement allows users to access tabs through a left-hand sidebar instead of the traditional top tab placement within the AI-powered browser.
Users can now resize the sidebar on ChatGPT Atlas, customize tab orders, and even select Google as their default search engine. The new sidebar feature, while not as extensive as Arc’s, offers increased flexibility and ease of navigation. To experience vertical tabs, users can right-click within the address bar, navigate to ‘Tab Style,’ and select ‘Vertical Tabs’.
Additionally, the update includes the ability to drag multiple tabs simultaneously by holding Command or Shift while clicking. Users can import extensions from their current browser upon downloading Atlas, although this functionality is not yet accessible to existing users. Furthermore, an improved downloads interface and support for iCloud keychain passkeys have been implemented.
ChatGPT Atlas, launched on macOS recently, joins the ranks of AI-driven browsing experiences such as Perplexity’s Comet and Google’s Gemini extension in Chrome. With ChatGPT Atlas, users can input URLs or pose questions to receive AI-generated responses. For a detailed list of modifications, visit OpenAI’s official website.
