Having ChatGPT read every open tab and do the tedious comparing for me is the first browser AI pitch that sounds like it saves real time, though I want to see how much of my browsing I am comfortable handing over. Does anyone ever read Privacy Policies anymore? This one would be interesting. In fact, it may be good to simply copy the Policy and have an AI review it.
While I use Codex and Claude and give them permission to use a browser interface to review what I’m working on, I explicitly log into sites myself, and I have told them not to store my passwords (which, at least with Claude, is a rule they follow). I’m not sure, though, how a regular browser extension will work. I will have to test that out.
But this is the direction AI is pushing towards… an always-present, “helpful” interface that is “watching” your Internet activity. I wonder if it is also training itself.
