What do you all think about Perplexity Comet vs. ChatGPT Atlas? Have you tried either of them? I’m especially interested in your insights on aspects like data privacy, security, memory footprint, performance, ...

I look forward to 'semantic' page search (i.e. rather than searching for a string with ctrl + f, you can ask the LLM can you find 'x' on the page and it will likely locate it, even if you described it differently to how it appears on the page).

As a web dev, I'm really interested to see if I can write automated 'system UX tests' in natural language. E.g. The test would be something like "go to the home page, log in, update your status" it passes if the LLM completes it (the premise being if the LLM fails, your users probably will too).

I very much dislike that they arent available for linux. Which means I havent tested them; I also dont see a need for them.

I dont want or use AI in the browser. Brave has had Leo for ages now. Qwen3 14b in the cloud is a fine model, no thanks though. I very much prefer my local llama private models for privacy. None of these ai browsers let you go local; but even if they did, i doubt id use it anyway.

What the world needs is a new browser, open source, that isnt chromium. Brave, Librewolf, and Ephipany.

I'm super excited for: https://ladybird.org/

and

https://servo.org/

Hopefully they become huge.
