  • What's up with -5 downvotes? I don't see anything particularly bad in the article.

  • There are currently more than 5800 AI and LLM out there. In Vivaldi anyone is free to add easily with a click those of their choice in their search engine list, as bookmark, in the web panel, as extension or even as script. That all browsers now include AI as a function is more due to commercial hype than real utility (privacy concerns apart). If I want to use an AI, I prefer to use one that really works for me and adjusts to my needs, instead of already having a built-in ChatGPT or similar by default. In Vivaldi I have this possibility to choose, the main feature of this browser, in the others I have to swallow what they offer, whether it works for me or not.
