OpenAI has expressed interest in acquiring Google’s Chrome browser if U.S. antitrust regulators compel Alphabet Inc. to sell it.
This was disclosed in Washington during Google’s ongoing antitrust trial, where the Department of Justice (DOJ) seeks remedies to break Google’s dominance in online search and advertising.
Nick Turley, Head of Product for ChatGPT at OpenAI, testified on Tuesday that the company would consider buying Chrome if Google is required to divest it.
