we had an intern ask AI what it could to to completely enshittify the browser. the AI simply responded, “put me in coach!”
You know how we thought " How could chrome get any worse?" well, we have an answer.
Why connect to the Internet with it then. The browser could just make everything up on the fly.
Got questions about a medication?
Maybe you want to check up on some disease symptoms?
AI can make something that sounds vaguely plausible.
Why connect to the Internet with it then
To check if your subscription to their models is still valid of course
Browsing the internet will be like playing AI Quake II, you’ll think you are in this alternate universe.
Why use head if you can use ChatGPT. Remove head and start working smarter.
I don’t fucking understand why Lemmy is permanently stuck in 2023 with AI
Using RAG (retrieval augmented generation) results in much lower, almost negligible confabulation rates
Generally speaking, people used ChatGPT back when it first came out, had a bad experience and never fucked with it again, so their understanding of it is frozen in time. Most people know next to nothing about the current state of AI unless you’re a researcher or enthusiast. They’re completely unprepared for the actual state of the industry.
How do Sam
Conman’sAltman’s boots taste?Oh fucking -please-
This place is genuinely more insufferable than Reddit. That is actually an achievement
Whatever dude, writhe in your own ignorance
Making an assumption regarding the entirety of a social network with at least tens of thousands of users based on a single inflammatory comment (mind you, a comment that has more downvotes than upvotes)? That’s a bit of a small sample to extrapolate from, don’t you think? You should’ve probably asked ChatGPT if that’s the right call.
I’ve seen this stupidity all over lemmy. It’s like, people “group psychology” -ed this thought into the central culture of lemmy and refuse to budge.
It also doesn’t help that capitalists are using AI to take people’s jobs and also a misunderstanding of how image diffusion works had lead to the artistic line of people to also hate AI
Nobody likes to fucking listen. People like to be smug.
Validating my years old decision to use Firefox
Are these fucks stupid? Chromium is open sourced. They can do it themselves
They don’t want to buy the browser. They want to buy the brand and the users. Chrome makes up over half the browser market. Think of all the data they could extract from Chrome users. It would cost significantly more to fork chromium and grow the user base to a point where they could extract anything valuable from them, and that’s assuming they’d be successful enough to make it happen.
There is no way Google would sell Chrome. But you can bet at least a thousand engineers are working on bolting Gemini onto it right now.
There’s no way Google would voluntarily sell Chrome. Unfortunately for them, they might be forced to sell Chrome.
Existing userbase
I like to think if people want whatever it is OpenAI thinks browsers need AI for, the userbase will manifest itself.
Suuuuure
Well, killing off Chrome would probably be a good thing.
When a company considers buying Chrome because it could help them extend the reach of their product, they are fucking drunk and need to go home. This would be like buying the state of Nevada so you could put up billboards all over Las Vegas.
Great! Now not only can chrome eat all my system memory, it can use all my GPU memory at the same time! It’s genius!
Likely it’ll use the cloud for processing, you’ll just get really hard-to-opt-out AI features, like “prompt by default” and “AI autocomplete”, which you can only “snooze” as they’ll automatically be turned back on the moment there’s a “great new feature”, like putting a filter on by default on image generators to fool the eye that it’s made by real artists.
OpenAI is like a zombie stumbling around trying to infect everything. We shove it away because it’s fuckin’ gross and we want nothing to do with it, while the bosses that reanimated it are like “well fuck, we made this thing, we have to use it for something.”
don’t they already have brave for that?
What does Brave have to do with it? It doesn’t even have ChatGPT’s models as an option.
it’s crypto trash
And is OpenAI somehow related to crypto?
crypto and ai are two sides of the same garbage
They’re really not. They’re completely unrelated.
Isn’t Google going to do it themselves?
Chome is already dead… it’s just a zombie.
WTF? Just download it for free.
Chromium is open source? What a concept…
This can’t happen. Not because I think google is doing a wonderful job, but it’s got serious market share now. Basically a monopoly. It needs to leave the hands of for profit companies and be transitioned to a foundation.
