I thought personal attacks were not allowed in here. But I think you'll get a free pass.

Classifying a comment tone as nonconstructive and/or a shitpost is not an attack, let alone a personal one.

Funny, I also think many of your comments here are shitposts, so I guess we're even.

Third-party cookies, and presumably Privacy Sandbox are both enabled by default. I can't find any controls to disable Privacy Sandbox, and I see the presence of Privacy Sandbox attribution APIs in JS.

While all the security / privacy concerns in this thread are spot on I must say that this thing works . I had it do a proximity based search for me in Google Maps and then populate a new Google Sheet with this data and it just went off and did it right the first time. Now obviously Google could probably do this much better once they get around to it, but this is the first truly usable browser automation tool I've eve…

do you know if it can run the same task in a loop/at predetermined times?

> It's a no brainer. Google's hegemony is really going to take a hit Wonder which company has the best in class browser today, along with a really really good model, an in-house chip, datacenter infra, and most importantly, is cash flow positive?

You really think chrome has such a big moat?

It's more about the fact that if both Chrome and Atlas have AI, then which will people choose?

There was a phase when ChatGPT would respond to everything I said, even in the same request with something like “..here’s the thing that you asked for, of course, without the fluff.” Or blah blah blah “straight to the point.” Or some such thinly veiled euphemisms. No matter how many times I told it not to talk like that, it didn’t work until I found that “core memory”.

I have the same issue. I often get annoyed with ChatGPT yammering on and on, so I repeatedly told it to cut to the chase and speak more succinctly. Now it just says "I'll get right to the point..." and then still yammers on and on unabated.

This happened to me too. I eliminated it in text responses, but eventually figured out that there's a system prompt in voice mode that says to do this (more or less) regardless of any instructions you give to the contrary. Attempting to override it will just make it increasingly awkward and obvious.

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.

I think it makes sense, many don't have a choice to run Windows (Linux/Mac won't work for them for whatever reason). If MS turned on Recall without a disable (and its not hard to believe they wouldn't, onedrive), people would be upset.

With ChatGPT Atlas, you simply uninstall it. done.

I don't want an AI browser and don't understand the attractiveness of it. Like. What does it add that a normal browser + chatgpt extension doesn't? It is a gimmick to boost usage and token count and fake growth I think. This is the reason I dont trust Altman. He is all about fake growth.

Would be interesting if it made things cheaper to buy through group buying power, and even a crypto balance upon install. Google don't have their own currency... yet.

The end goal here seems to be a road to profitability aka serving you ads. So this is a great way to personalize those ads since they know all your online activity.

Profitably through serving you crypto, and products to buy with that crypto. Don't worry, they'll have pre-mined it. Paypal/Amazon gives new users free money. So it's the Faucet ftw.

Seen how big Binance Coin has become?

October 1999: "Critically, PayPal offers a $10 referral bonus for each new user, and $10 just for registering. This becomes their biggest driver of user growth, and also one of their biggest burns of money."

The main hurdle with crypto adoption is having a navy to protect the associated commerce and the sea lanes for companies/countries using some new currency. I realized that over 10 years ago. It's a gray area.

There are also privacy issues. This is a new concern for me. If someone can know about you, shouldn't you be able to know all about them? Transparency is fine, until it's not, then Privacy takes over. How are the serfs going to take out loans in 15 years to pull themselves out of poverty with all their parents' grand ideas, if they're even still alive?
