đź’» ChatGPT Atlas Redefines How We Browse
OpenAI has launched ChatGPT Atlas, a new AI-powered browser that blends search, automation, and personalization into one seamless experience. Rolling out on macOS first, Atlas turns browsing into a conversational, context-aware workflow driven entirely by ChatGPT.

The Shift:
1. Smarter browsing with built-in memory - Atlas integrates ChatGPT into every tab, remembering context from previous chats and pages to deliver personalized help. Users can easily clear, archive, or disable memories for privacy, giving full control over what the AI recalls.
2. Automate your work with agent mode - Agent mode lets ChatGPT perform real actions, from research to shopping, directly in the browser. It pauses on sensitive sites, can’t access files or run code, ensuring automation stays secure and reliable.
3. Privacy and parental controls built in - Atlas adds granular control with per-site visibility toggles and incognito browsing. Parental settings extend from ChatGPT to Atlas, allowing families to disable agent mode or browser memories for safer use.
4. A step toward AI-native web interaction 0 Beyond search and chat, Atlas represents OpenAI’s vision for the “super-assistant browser,” one that understands user goals and completes work proactively.
ChatGPT Atlas brings a new way to experience the internet, one that’s more intuitive, contextual, and personal. It’s a glimpse into how everyday browsing may soon feel less like searching and more like collaborating with an intelligent assistant.

🪩 Napster Reinvents Itself with AI Holograms
Napster, once known for disrupting music sharing, is reinventing itself with Napster 26, a new AI platform that blends holographic visuals, personalized digital twins, and real-time collaboration. The launch marks its shift from streaming to the AI companion economy.

The Shift:
1. From music to AI collaboration - Napster 26 introduces Napster View, a $99 glasses-free holographic display that projects 3D AI companions above Mac screens. The platform hosts over 15,000 AI specialists, from coders to wellness coaches, all available through live holographic interactions.
2. Digital twins and personalized assistants - Users can create AI “digital twins” that act as virtual versions of themselves, attending meetings, answering questions, and managing tasks. Each twin adapts to its user’s preferences, offering a more collaborative, context-aware experience.
3. Hardware, platform, and ecosystem integration - Napster 26 combines hardware, software, and an open ecosystem for creators. The View device separates holographic AI from main screens, while the platform allows users to collaborate with others’ AI companions and publish work within Napster’s creative network.
Napster’s comeback signals the evolution from chat-based assistants to immersive, embodied AI experiences. By merging holographic collaboration with adaptive digital twins, it’s redefining how humans and machines create together. Backed by its $207M acquisition by Infinite Reality, Napster is turning the old music disruptor into an AI-era pioneer.
