#42AI brain rot continues but now it's reaching unimaginable levels and infecting browser APIs, wow!
Do you have a specific objection to this feature's technical merit or is this a kneejerk to seeing "AI" in the headline?
All I have is a tweet stating a new property `ai` is being added to the browser window context. That and a short video with a link to a Vercel app that stops me because I'm not using Chrome.
So no, I don't have much technical objections.

This is fun. I also imagine skipping frontend dev and just sending back high level commands to window.ai

Why is it brain rot? It still blows my mind that it’s even possible for a low-power device to talk and behave like us. For all practical purposes, LLMs pass the Turing test.
This a major leap forward in human innovation and engineering. IMO, this could be as influential as the adoption of electricity/setting up of the power grid.

#46Sigh, don't make me tap the sign*. I used to hold Google Chrome in high esteem due to its security posture. Shoehorning AI into it has deleted any respect I held for Chrome or the team that develops it.

What a needlessly hostile and cynical blog post. I also can't relate to their appraisal of copilot. It's been an incredible productivity booster for me in how it removes so much cognitive load that's tangential to the problem I'm solving. It mostly completes the same line/s I was about to type, sometimes even pointing out an error in my code when the output is odd. It's also awesome when it spits out 20+ lines unexpectedly that do exactly what I was about to do, taking only a brief moment of code review by me to verify.

#47I mostly think it's an interesting concept that can allow many interesting user experiences.
At the same time, it is a major risk for browser compatibility. Despite many articles claiming otherwise, I think we mostly avoided repeating the "works only on IE6" situation with chrome. Google did kinda try at times, but most things didn't catch on. This I think has the potential to do some damage on that front.

If Copilot is so great, why does your employer even need you? Replacing you with Copilot would be more capital-efficient.
