Could this be an Extension, for Chrome / Firefox / Edge / and others ?

Are these extension-fodder:

- "new tab" shows custom UI with LLM prompt

- Reads contents of user's web page in Chat UI, shown alongside web page

- new UI gizmo at Text-selection, showing ChatGPT flower icon, with context features available for selected text

- maintains "agent personality / context" (IDK the term) across tabs

That's what I thought: is an extension really that restrictive to where you need your own fork of a browser engine?

It appears to me like they're posturing to investors on the AI hype train. Publishing an extension isn't as sexy or "grand" as shipping a browser.

Controlling the full browser gives you a lot more freedom for any future additions.
