Here are the highlights from the .DMG installer screens ( https://imgur.com/a/Tu4TlNu ): 1. Turn on browser memories Allow ChatGPT to remember useful details as you browse to give smarter responses and proactive suggestions. You're in control - memories stay private. 2. Ask ChatGPT - on any website Open the ChatGPT sidebar on any website to summarize, explain, or handle tasks - right next to what you're browsing. 3.…

For now.

Being able to search browser history with natural language is the feature I am most excited for. I can't count the number of times I've spent >10 minutes looking for a link from 5 months ago that I can describe the content of but can't remember the title.

Isn’t this what Recall in Windows 11 is trying to solve, and everyone got super up in arms over it?

I have no horse in the race either way, but I do find it funny how HN will swoon over a feature from one company and criticize to no end that same feature from another company just because of who made it.

At least Recall is on-device only, both the database and the processing.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I found a big part of what makes doing an activity enjoyable is the time spent thinking/planning involed to make it happen. For example if I spent a week looking at exactly how to plan my trip, and then finally going out to accomplish it vs just waking up one morning and someone guiding me on exactly what to do

I'm the complete opposite. Nothing enjoyable about it whatsoever. I love going on trips with a friend group where someone takes lead and I don't need to be involved in the planning at all.

I think thats a different enjoyment which is just having a good time with friends or perhaps doing something you havent done before

One thing that I would watch out for with _all_ OpenAI products is that they use Keychain's Access Control lists to encrypt data such that _you_ cannot unlock or access it.

It's a change that they made to 'fix' this issue: https://pvieito.com/2024/07/chatgpt-unprotected-conversation...

The net effect however is that if you use their apps, you can get data _in_, but you can only get it _out_ in ways that their apps themselves allow. The actual encryption of Chrome data seems to be _potentially_ held behind the 'ChatGPT Safe Storage' key that - since it's Chromium - you can unlock (for now), but the rest of Atlas's keys do the same thing as the above - locking you out of the encrypted data on your own computer.

I understand the rationale that it protects the data from malware or users willingly filling in a password dialogue, but the current approach means that any _intentional_ access by other apps or automated backups or export (even with Full Disk Access or similar) can't see into the apps' data.

I turned off chatGPT memory entirely because it doesn't know how to segment itself. I was getting inane comments like this when asking about winter tires: Because you work in firmware (so presumably you appreciate measurement, risk, durability) you might be more critical of the “wear sooner than ideal” signals and want a tire with more robustness.

This happens with GPT-5 (instant) but not on Thinking mode. The instant response mode is just so much worse than the Thinking mode, I wish I could turn it off entirely and default to Low Thinking mode (still fast enough for live convo)

They already have Gemini for chrome which no one uses.

and there is Copilot for Edge which no one uses. It can also summarize pages, scale recipes etc.

That Copilot feature is very useful actually, the summarize is good enough for a free AI with no ads.
