Google Chrome get over 60% share for world browser market and na big data source for Google adverts and AI things. Perplexity AI don bid $34.5 billion, plus Search.com wan offer $35 billion as informal bids. OpenAI dey plan to put ChatGPT and future AI models directly inside Google Chrome, use anonymized user interactions to make their language models better and give personal web experiences.
