"No formal definition of AI web browsers exists, but in general, we think of them as web browsers with significant AI functionality, including AI agents, AI assistants, and more. You might consider, for example, DuckDuckGo's web browser to be an AI web browser because you can access its AI chat service within it, but that alone isn't enough to earn it a spot on this list. Traditional web browsers, such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, now offer many AI features, so they are eligible."
"AI web browsers rely on large language models (LLMs). An LLM is akin to a complex mathematical equation that takes in prompts and generates responses. If an AI web browser has an assistant you can talk to, it's using an LLM. Similarly, if an AI web browser has an AI agent that can perform tasks for you, that's using an LLM, too. Different AI web browsers use different LLMs, but some allow you to choose a specific one."
AI web browsers combine all traditional browser features like bookmarks, home pages, and tabs with AI capabilities such as assistants and agents. AI assistants can answer questions about or summarize content from open tabs, while AI agents can pilot the browser or a virtual browser to perform tasks. These browsers operate using large language models that take prompts and generate responses. Different AI browsers use different LLMs, and some let users choose the model. AI features can be helpful for some users but may be irrelevant or annoying for others, so they are not universally better than traditional browsers.
