🌐OpenAI to Launch AI Web Browser

• What: OpenAI is launching an AI-powered web browser built on Chromium in the coming weeks. It integrates ChatGPT-style chat, real‑time summarization, contextual memory, voice commands, and its AI agent “Operator” to carry out tasks like form filling or booking reservations .

• Why: This matters because OpenAI could leverage its 500 million weekly ChatGPT users to lure people away from Chrome, challenging Google’s dominance and disrupting its advertising-driven data gathering model.

• Impact: If it gains traction, OpenAI’s browser could reshape internet browsing, turning the tool into a proactive assistant rather than just a navigation point. It may prompt fundamental shifts in how websites serve and monetize content .

Keep an eye out for the official launch later this summer. Will browsing shift from clicking links to conversing with an AI in-browser? It’s a big bet one that could redefine how we surf the web. Curious to see how it stacks up!

🚀Windsurf CEO Joins Google DeepMind

• What: OpenAI's proposed $3 billion acquisition of AI coding startup Windsurf has collapsed. Instead, Google DeepMind is now onboarding Windsurf CEO Varun Mohan, co-founder Douglas Chen, and parts of the R&D team, along with securing a non‑exclusive technology license.

• Why: This matters because OpenAI’s deal unraveled due to tensions with its major backer Microsoft, while Google swooped in with a $2.4 billion licensing-and-hire arrangement. The move illustrates how talent and tech deals are shaping the fierce rivalry among AI giants.

• Impact: Google’s new team will boost DeepMind’s agentic coding work for its Gemini platform. OpenAI loses out on the next big AI coding stack, raising fresh questions about its ability to compete in developer tooling.

OpenAI's vision is losing ground, or at least key talent, to its rival. Will we see a wave of defections reshaping the AI coding landscape next? Stay tuned for how this shift evolves.

I Built a Side Hustle with AI. Now It Pays Me $800 every month

$800/Month from My Laptop (No BS Guide)

Man, I was living off instant ramen,

trying to convince myself that I wasn’t just completely bombing at this whole “adulting” thing.

Every “make money online” trick? Total flop.

Upwork? Fired off 57 proposals — no one cared.

To my cousin. (She still hasn’t colored a page, by the way.)

I didn’t need a “get rich quick” scheme.

I just wanted to keep my lights on — and maybe avoid getting kicked out.

I’d already been messing around with ChatGPT,

Writing dumb product descriptions and pretending like I was Jeff Bezos or something.

But, if I’m being real,

I just thought it was a neat party trick.

Not some money-printing machine.

Then my landlord hit me with a rent hike.

Cue existential terror.

Suddenly, I’m deep-diving into every “freelance with AI” article I could find.

Most of it was trash.

You can tell half these people have never actually worked with a client. Just endless copy-paste nonsense.

But after some trial and (a lot of) error, something finally made sense.

I offered to write some email flows for a friend’s Shopify store

Used ChatGPT to speed things up. Took me an hour.

I just stared at my phone like I’d won the lottery.

That’s when it smacked me in the face:

AI isn’t gonna save you unless you treat it like a power tool, not a magic ATM.

Here’s the rookie mistake (yep, been there too):

People treat ChatGPT like an unpaid intern.

Cool… and now what? You’re left with a pile of digital junk you’ll never use.

What worked for me?

Picking one solid, no-BS service:

writing and automating email flows for small brands.

From One Gig to Paying My Rent

Not glamorous. Not viral.

But it works. And with AI? I’m five times faster.

Here’s how I use ChatGPT:

- Whip up cold emails that don’t sound like a robot had a stroke
- Build welcome sequences
- Crank out weekly promos that sound human

One gig turned into a retainer.
