To jest zloto... #TheBrowserCompany, ci od porzuconej przegladarki #Arc, wrzucili nowy filmik reklamujacy #Dia - ich nowa przegladarke, ktora jako jedna z pierwszych na wieksza skale miala wykorzystywac #AI. Miala bo nie jestem pewien czy w koncu wyszla z bety, jako pelnoprawna wersja 1.0. Stosunek lapek w gore do lapek w dol to 21/43 (a bylo 3/13 xD ), a do tego... komentarze pod filmem sa wylaczone. 🤣
Czyzby zaczelo ich za bardzo szczypac, ze prawie pod kazdym filmem ludzie im wyrzucaja, ze porzucili Arc'a? 🤔🤣 -

I’m not an expert, but I have a strong feeling that #Atlassian just wasted $600 million bucks; it’s either that or #TheBrowserCompany doesn’t exist in 2 years and they spent a pile of cash on employee acquisition.

The Browser Company, die den Arc Browser (und ja auch Dia) entwickelt, wurde von Atlassian gekauft :/
Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass diese beiden Firmenkulturen gut zusammen funktionieren. Immerhin soll Arc erstmal weiterentwickelt werden.

テっちゃんがあらためてこういう意見を表明したのは、AI が自律的に Web ブラウザーを操作するようなより踏み込んだかたちで AI が組み込まれたブラウザー（ #Perplexity の #Comet とか、 #Arc というブラウザーを作ってた #TheBrowserCompany の #Dia とか） が出てきたり、それによってメジャーなブラウザーも同様の AI 機能を組み込む可能性が出てきたことに起因してるような気がしている。
実際、記事の中でも
> 業界を見回すと、人工的なアシスタントがブラウザに直接埋め込まれるようになっており、答えを得るための近道のように提案されています。Google はページの内容を要約するために Chrome に Gemini を組み込んでいますが、ごく近い将来、ユーザーの代わりにタブを操作し、サイトをナビゲートする機能も追加されるでしょう。Microsoft は画面に表示される内容をスキャンし、ユーザーの行動を予測する新しいモードを含む AI ブラウザとしての Edge を推進しています。
と書いているし。
ちなみにこのあとに続く言葉として
> このような動きは、アドレスバーは単なる AI への指示入力欄となり、ユーザーの探索する喜びを無気力な傍観に変えてしまいます。
と書いていて、「無気力な傍観（英語の原文では "inactive spectatorship" ）」という表現はなかなか秀逸な表現だなとおもった。

Perplexity’s offer to buy chrome is well… perplexing
It also would help it raise a bigger funding round itself, boosting its own valuation:
> “Perplexity’s offer is significantly more than its own valuation, which is estimated at $18 billion. The company told The Wall Street Journal that several investors including large venture-capital funds had agreed to back the transaction in full.”
Of course, Google itself is going to fight tooth and nail to not sell Chrome, which has become something like the successor to the once-dominant Microsoft Internet Explorer. Just as Internet Explorer once had a chokehold on the whole web, Chrome has an outsized influence on which features make it into the web platform.
> “In testimony this year, Pichai told the judge that forcing the company to sell it or share data with rivals would harm Google’s business, deter it from investing in new technology and potentially create security risks. Chrome has roughly 3.5 billion users worldwide and accounts for more than 60% of the global browser market.”
It’ll be interesting to see what happens here. We don’t know if the judge will force a Chrome sale, and if it does, there will surely be other offers. (And perhaps it could strike a deal with an open source org like Mozilla to prevent a competitor from creating business risk for it.) But it’s a clear indication of the position Perplexity would like to take in the ecosystem — not just in AI, but in all of tech.
fair warning: I am biased. I love the web. I believe that the web is the one remaining platform that doesn’t have a traditional gatekeeper and AI is one of those technologies that might actually keep the one existing potential gatekeeper at bay. I’ve also played a role in making chrome successful. From 2012 – 2017, I built up chrome’s media stack and video codec strategy – building the media platform into the juggernaut that it is today.
This doesn’t mean I am not critical of chrome. Heck, during its memory hogging days, I was an internal champion shouting from the rooftops making sure that it will continue to be a good steward of the resources.
But, it’s 2025. If there’s one thing that we must all admit, it’s that Google’s stewardship of Chrome is one of the best by any company for such a mission critical platform and software.
Perplexity is many things. I personally think they are thinking about search in a novel way and bringing innovation to the fore. However, I urge you to try comet. You will (likely) agree with me that they are not the strongest candidate for a steward of a great web platform.
The fact that they are trying to buy chrome and eventually gut them into another comet also suggests that they don’t understand what needs to be done to be a strong steward of the web.
Here are some things that would have made them be serious:
- Convince and form a consortium: perplexity, openai, microsoft, amazon, meta, etc.
- Work to develop a non profit entity that will assume chromium along with guaranteed funding and developers to maintain chromium ad infinitum.
- Innovate on the default search engine setup so that you can have diff skins on chromium and allow dia, comet and whatever open-ai is cooking up to all have the best experience
- innovate on how AI agents actually work in a privacy preserving way – in fact the company has actually gone the exact opposite way
Chrome innovated on federated learning to ensure double blind privacy. I know that google gets shit for not being privacy focused. Again, caveat – I used to work there – people inside Google and Chrome were some of the most privacy conscious people who will work and fight hard against any privacy encroaching movement in the API, Platform or Google-code.
All to say – it will be a horrible day for chrome to end up with perplexity alone. I don’t trust them, even when I think they are actually making strong improvements to search.

TechCrunch: The Browser Company launches a $20 monthly subscription for its AI-powered browser. “The Browser Company has launched a Pro subscription plan for Dia, its new web browser that heavily integrates AI features. The plan costs $20 per month and provides unlimited access to Dia’s AI-powered chat and skills features.”

I get that The Browser Company had to pivot to Dia since it has AI much more baked into the product.
I can't still understand why it couldn't have been an addition to the current Arc. Why can't the capabilities of Dia be baked into a right side panel in Arc?
