It is still early days - gpt powered browsers are becoming a commodity. One use I've found is leadgen automation. But it still not stable and frequently ends up in infinite loops.
What do you call it when you have a form where people give you their email explicitly to to sign up for notifications about your product? Or does that not called lead gen?
If you're using the email addresses to provide some specific thing the user asked for, that's not lead gen, that's just "notifications" or "a newsletter" or whatever actual thing you're doing.
If someone voluntarily gives you their email address and then you send them marketing messages, the part where you collect their email address is called "lead gen". But all the other parts of that process have different names (creating a cool-looking blog is "content marketing", getting people to visit it is "SEO", sending the marketing emails is "nurturing"), and AI can't really automate the process of someone else typing their email address into a form, so in an AI context "lead generation automation" usually means either data gathering or cold outreach.
I am incredibly amused by the idea that OpenAI was so cynical about the latest in what people are hyping that they decided to make a browser themselves.
It’s designed for stealing your data, they can’t exactly list that as one of their primary use cases but it’s the truth. You are there to help feed their training models.

By what metric are they becoming a commodity? They’re niche among a niche group of tech enthusiasts.

Is 'leadgen automation' an euphemism for ads?
It is a euphemism for "spam". (Or, more precisely, collecting a list of people's contact information to send unsolicited messages to.)

How is a gpt browser useful for that?

Was Chrome browser designed for any other reason?
> your data
I think stealing third party data that are either paywalled or private might be a main objective too.
