How does this page not immediately address what I assume is everyone's first question? Is this browser built on Chromium, or is it a completely fresh creation? I have to assume that because they AREN'T highlighting it that it IS built on Chromium.

99.9% is based on Chromium. Would have taken ages to ship otherwise. It's great to see how much Chromium has lowered the bar for people to be able to ship new browsers.

As a consumer company, I assure you that not everyone’s first question is which browser engine this is built on.

Anyone feel like OpenAI is acting like Google lately? They announce a lot of products/features and then kill them when they realize people don't use them[0]. They also announce products way before they're ready for launch, just like google[1].

- GPT Plugins? (HN went crazy over this, they called it the "app store moment"...)

- GPTs?!

- Schedules?

- Operator?

- The original "codex" model?

[0]: I know, the diff is that google kills them despite knowing that many people use them.

[1]: I know, the diff is that google sometimes doesn't launch the announced product at all...

Why wouldn't it be Chromium/V8-based? New browser engine is multiple developer-years of effort.

But I thought AI was supposed to be writing 90% of code by now, you're telling me building a new browser engine is still a multi-year, difficult effort?

They hired a bunch of former Chrome engineers, so...

I think it's more like Apple - use ChatGPT as the iPhone and build an ecosystem around it
