ChatGPT Atlas's coverage has been dominated by stories about prompt injection and privacy.

A prompt injection attack was demonstrated in the first 24 hours.

Ben Mathes: "Can't wait for people to start sending emails with prompt injection attacks in them so that you open up your browser agent on your Gmail tab and it leaks your Gmail"

Michael Nielsen: "In today's version of this: OpenAI is going to have a web browser. But, unlike Chrome or Firefox or Safari, they're going to have a person (i.e., an AI) personally watch everything you (and your friends and everyone else) do. Doesn't that sound great?"

Anil Dash frames ChatGPT Atlas as the anti-web browser.
