🌐 ChatGPT became a web browser

PLUS: How to instantly turn any idea into ready-to-present deck in seconds

Good morning, AI enthusiast. OpenAI just expanded ChatGPT beyond chat apps, launching Atlas, a next-generation AI browser that blends web browsing with an ā€œAsk ChatGPTā€ sidebar. The company aims to make the browser a central hub for AI-assisted computing, and a potential competitor to Chrome.

In today’s AI newsletter:

  • OpenAI launches Atlas

  • Google AI Studio Launches AI-First Vibe Coding

  • YouTube rolls out AI tool to detect deepfakes of creators

AI NEWS

OpenAI unveiled its new Atlas browser in a surprise livestream led by CEO Sam Altman, calling it a ā€œonce-a-decade opportunity to rethink what a browser can be.ā€

  • Atlas replaces the URL bar with chat, letting users summarize pages, ask questions, and navigate interactively inside one window.

  • Head of engineering Ben Goodger (ex-Chrome lead) described it as a ā€œmulti-turn search experience,ā€ unlike anything on Google.

  • The launch could siphon traffic from Chrome and threaten Google’s ad dominance, especially after the DOJ blocked its search exclusivity deals.

  • OpenAI’s recent adtech hires also hint at a future where Atlas powers its own contextual ad network.

By combining web browsing and AI, Atlas could change how people access information online, giving OpenAI a direct path to user data, subscriptions, and potentially challenging Chrome’s dominance, all while expanding ChatGPT’s role as a computing platform.

AI PRODUCTIVITY

Google’s AI Studio now lets users build and deploy apps in minutes using natural language prompts powered by Gemini models. Describe what you want, and AI generates the code, all in a unified interface.

  • Prompt-to-app generation with Gemini 2.5 Pro by default

  • Live preview, refinement, and one-click deployment to a shareable URL via Cloud Run (paid API key required)

  • Templates, voice & multi-modal input, context window for full project, and GitHub integration

  • Designed for beginners, developers, and data scientists alike

Google is making app creation accessible to everyone, turning ideas into deployable apps almost instantly. This lowers the barrier to entry and speeds up AI-powered innovation across the board.

AI TOOLS

Creators in the YouTube Partner Program can now verify their identity and review flagged videos in the Content Detection tab of YouTube Studio.

  • The tool works like Content ID, letting creators request removal of videos that appear to use their likeness without permission.

  • YouTube began testing the system last year with talent represented by CAA and plans a broader rollout over the coming months.

  • The feature may occasionally flag real, unaltered content and is part of YouTube’s broader effort to manage AI-generated media, alongside labeling and policies for AI-altered music.

As AI-generated content proliferates, platforms like YouTube are starting to give creators tools to protect their likeness and identity, a major step toward balancing AI innovation with creator rights.

HOW TO AI

šŸŽØ How to turn any idea into a presentation in seconds

In this tutorial, you will learn how to instantly generate professional presentations using Kimi Slides, an AI-powered tool that drafts, designs, and formats entire decks for you in second

🧰 Who is This For

  • Students and educators creating classroom or research presentations

  • Startup founders and marketers building pitch decks in minutes

  • Content creators who need fast, professional visuals for slides

  • Anyone who wants AI to handle design, formatting, and structure

STEP 1: Access Kimi Slides

Head to the Kimi Slides website or open it through your preferred AI workspace. Once loaded, you’ll land on a clean chat interface titled ā€œKimi Slides.ā€ At the bottom, you’ll see a single input box where you can type your idea or topic.

For example, you can write:
ā€œMake a 6-slide tutorial presentation on how to start a YouTube channel. Include slide titles, bullets, and a short explanation for each step.ā€

Hit Enter, and Kimi will immediately start building your slide outline.

STEP 2: Let Kimi Build the Presentation

Kimi automatically researches the web and gathers real data from multiple sources to fill your slides with accurate and well-structured content. Once the outline is ready, the tool will display a set of professional templates.

Browse through the available options, each template includes different color palettes and layout styles. Choose the one that fits your brand or topic best, then click Generate Slides.

STEP 3: Customize Your Deck

In seconds, Kimi will create a complete presentation. You can now edit any element directly within the interface. Click on text boxes, images, or icons to make adjustments, just like you would in Canva or PowerPoint.

You can tweak fonts, reposition graphics, or rewrite points to better match your tone. All edits update live within your deck preview.

STEP 4: Export and Share Your Presentation

Once you’re satisfied with your slides, look toward the top-right corner of the screen and click the Download button. Choose your preferred export format (PPTX or PDF).

Your presentation will be ready to share instantly, complete with structured content, polished design, and professional formatting, all generated in under a minute.
