In an unlikely bid that shows the growing brashness of young artificial intelligence companies, the AI startup Perplexity has made an unsolicited offer to buy Google’s Chrome web browser for $34.5 billion.

The browser is slated to launch in the coming weeks and aims to use artificial intelligence to fundamentally change how consumers browse the web.

Many see Perplexity’s bid to buy Google’s Chrome browser as a strategic statement rather than a likely transaction.
