This is a bet:

1. Chrome (and then Safari) won't have this in a year or so (the model is a commodity and privileged access to the OS is important) 

2. OpenAI and Anthropic desktop apps can't do this

3. Can go viral enough to hit scale (when consumers are mostly on mobile).

Don't buy it.

I continue to believe they a shooting for a talent acquisition similar to Brett Taylor / Quip / Salesforce ($750M in 2016, not too shabby).

Thrive (where it was incubated) <> OpenAI
Mike Krieger (board member) <> Anthropic

And both are likely to be able to acquire despite FTC.

Here's a demo of full self-driving for Dia browser, made by @nateparrott.  

You send your (second) cursor off to do work in another tab for you, while you continue on other stuff in parallel.

FSD reliability is not good enough for production but we'll get there in 2025. https://t.co/BY9mAU441X

Yeah gearing up for an acquihire makes sense. Curious to see what they actually ship. They didn't ship much of their Arc AI vision. They've only been showing tech demos so far.

The open web is dead, long live the open web. ⌐◨-◨

Building /warpcast and /farcaster

Right and the cost.

They'd have to gate that behind a 
subscription.

Basically do what Cursor did for VSCode but for Chromium. The difference is that devs are willing to pay for productivity gain. Doubt regular folks are willing to pay for a browser that moves the cursor for you and has built -in AI autocomplete.

I suspect the reliability is not good enough for anything other than a tech demo.
