I don't use Vivaldi, but I think it's fine on their side to avoid falling into this AI trap. You have to consider that there were 2 possibilities, they used their API key to send requests to openai/claude or they did what Mozilla did and integrated gemini/chatgpt at the expense of the user data, both of which are pretty scummy and barely help the end user. The only way to integrate AI fine into browser is to ship a model to run local, but that would require the user to have the computing power to run it. Google is trying this with chrome by integrating gemini mini in the browser as a 100mb blob.
