OpenAI Discontinues ChatGPT Atlas for New Desktop App

OpenAI is discontinuing ChatGPT Atlas, its standalone desktop browser. This move comes as the company releases an all-new ChatGPT desktop app today. The new app includes a ChatGPT Work agent and ChatGPT Codex. It also offers robust browser capabilities. OpenAI's James Sun confirmed the discontinuation of Atlas, stating the targeted deprecation date is August 9th. More information will be shared in-app and via email. ChatGPT Atlas first launched on the Mac in October, and a dedicated Codex app followed in April. Now, these features are bundled into the new ChatGPT desktop app. This development means users will transition to the integrated desktop app for their ChatGPT needs.
