ChatGPT's Atlas Web Browser

Yesterday, ChatGPT released a standalone Web browser, called Atlas, with ChatGPT integrated into it. You can download it here for macOS only. Other operating systems are coming soon. 

As a web browser, it seems OK. 
But it really shines when you're on a web page, like a specific restaurant on Yelp, and ask it how long it'll take you to drive there.
"What time should I leave to arrive here by 6:15 today, accounting for live traffic updates?"

Also, since you're logged into your own ChatGPT account, your Atlas website queries are saved in ChatGPT. 


Perhaps, one day, Apple will integrate AI into their operating systems so it can answer questions like this based on what you're looking at on your screen.

Depth-first Recursion with AI in 103 Seconds

Once, when I was interviewing with the iTunes U team at Apple, I was asked to write a depth-first search, using recursion, in a language of my choice. I chose Java and proceeded to sketch out a tree on the whiteboard while keeping track of my stack on the side of the board.

It took about 10 or 15 minutes. Then the hiring manager and I walked though the code and I was thrilled that I passed, especially since recursion is not my strongest area of coding.

Today, I used ChatGPT which was released eight days ago. It came up with three different solutions in less than two minutes. This is fascinating.
