This is actually very cool. Not really replacing a browser, but it could enable an alternative way of browsing the web with a combination of deterministic search and prompts. It would probably work even better as a command line tool.

A natural next step could be doing things with multiple "tabs" at once, e.g: tab 1 contains news outlet A's coverage of a story, tab 2 has outlet B's coverage, tab 3 has Wikipedia; summarize and provide references. I guess the problem at that point is whether the underlying model can support this type of workflow, which doesn't really seem to be the case even with SOTA models.

Thank you.

I was thinking of showing multiple tabs/views at the same time, but only from the same source.

Maybe we could have one tab with the original content optimised for cli viewing, and another tab just doing fact checking (can ground it with google search or brave). Would be a fun experiment.

I think the primary reason I use multiple tabs but _especially_ multiple splits is to show content from various sources. Obviously this is different that a terminal context, as I usually have figma or api docs in one split and the dev server on the other.

Still, being able to have textual content from multiple sources visible or quickly accessible would probably be helpful for a number of users
