Why would they build their own browser from scratch? That would be dumb without a significantly compelling reason. The author of this post reminds me of one of those guys who writes an entirely new game engine instead of using an off the shelf product and ends up never completing the game..

Good grief. Developers who use Unity/Unreal/Game Maker/ whatever don’t announce their game as being a revolutionary new tech.

The problem isn’t that they made yet another chromium based browser with their garbage on top. The problem is that they’re positioning it as this exciting and radical new thing when it’s just chromium with their garbage on top.

You’re not the target audience for the announcement, but like many people, they probably already know that and just want to be annoyed.

Who exactly is the target audience? Browser not exactly a hot bed of competition. Am I in the market for an AI browser? No.

But is anyone?

Those features are already being pushed in the browsers people actually use.
