To find out what someone truly believes, don't listen to what they say, observe how they act. I don't see how OpenAI's recent actions make any sense from the perspective a company that internally believes it's actually close to unlocking super-intelligence.

#13umm, I am not a fan of any of the recent new browsers but what's wrong with Chromium in itself? I think Chromium is pretty good, technologically mature, foss.

#14I guess if you ask ChatGPT to build a browser for you, this is what you get.

#15If I can't get extensions to work on it the browser just feels useless.

OpenAI has always had the stance of “commercialize narrow AI that is research aligned with AGI development”. In fact they used to ask this as an interview question — “should we commercialize narrow AI or aim to put all resources into AGI”. The correct answer required you to prove you drank the kool aid and also wanted to make tons of money.

#17I'm glad this point is continuing to get hammered home. Because on what feels like a nearly daily basis, I'm still seeing people surprised and learning for the first time that what they think of as a whole browser ecosystem is really just a bunch of things using a Chromium foundation.
But to try and be constructive for whoever's reading and thinking of their next AI browser, I would be impressed by a wholly alternative browser engine, or demonstrations of major capacity to maintain programming upkeep of alternatives on par with the programming capacity supporting Chromium. A big part of the Chromium "moat" as it exists right now is the ability to bring disproportionate resources to bear on browser engine modernization. I would be impressed if AI tools were being used to demonstrably close the gap, because it conceivably could have important implications for getting us away from the browser monopoly problem.

#18Why would they build their own browser from scratch? That would be dumb without a significantly compelling reason. The author of this post reminds me of one of those guys who writes an entirely new game engine instead of using an off the shelf product and ends up never completing the game..

#19So, Atlas, Comet, Edge, Dia, Brave, Opera, etc are all Chromium.
And any browser on iOS uses the safari engine under the hood?
Looks like we are down to two browsers.

I use Orion as my daily driver, mostly because of its Kagi integration.
