ChatGPT Atlas

I hope they start to-reinvent the way things are accessed so that I can stop being the product.

You can already ask ChatGPT for product recommendations and they(at least in what they say) don't take product placement or ad money.

It would be incredibly refreshing to have a portal into the current internet in which I am not the product.

I'd pay them substantially to be an unbiased assistant rather than some conglomerate shoving whatever they're paid to shove down my throat

I don’t trust anyone to provide anything like this. Our best bet is a box of AI connected via USB so it doesn’t have a way to access the network, but this means open weights, which I don’t think any frontier models will have available (without a scale breakthrough, anyway).

Pay for Kagi Ultimate: private search, and your selection of multiple models.

Every token incurs a cost.

They are giving away a browser for free.

Do the math.

Don't they have a deal with Walmart?

I'm increasingly reluctant to hand over more context from my life to OpenAI and Google etc. Giving Gemini etc access to all my emails, notes etc is just a step too far IMO.

The future of these products absolutely needs to be locally running, private solutions rather than cloud based, and if they can't provide that, I'll be using open source alternatives instead.
