Let's spend years plugging holes in V8, splitting browser components to separate processes and improving sandboxing and then just plug in LLM with debugging enabled into Chrome. Great idea. Last time we had such a great idea it was lead in gasoline.
- dmix 10mo agoInnovation in the short term might trump longer term security concerns. All of these have big warning labels like it's alpha software (ie, this isn't for your mom to use). The security model will come later... or maybe it will never be fully solved.

- markm248 10mo agoAllI want is a secure system where it's easy to do anything I want. Is that so much to ask?
- mFixman 10mo agoThe thing AI miss about the internet from the late 2000s and early 2010s was having so much useful data available, searchable, and scrappable. Even things like "which of my friends are currently living in New York?" are impossible to find now. I always assumed this was a once-in-history event. Did this cycle of data openness and closure happen before?
- int32_64 10mo agoIt's clear the endgame is to cook AI into Chrome itself. Get ready for some big antitrust lawsuit that settles in 20 years when Gemini is bundled too conveniently and all the other players complain. https://developer.chrome.com/docs/ai/built-in-apis https://developer.chrome.com/docs/ai/built-in-apis
- thrance 10mo agoWe'll soon get Manifest V4 that, for "security reasons", somehow includes clauses banning any AI other than Gemini from using the browser.
- arthurcolle 10mo agoThat's too easy. It'll be more subtle. Compatibility MCP-Gemini for "security" so it slurps in more data from all the other AIs
- bigyabai 10mo agoAnd then a flat fee whenever anyone links-out from your proprietary, inescapable MCP backend. It's a legal free money hack!
- arthurcolle 10mo agoThat would suck. Is Google going to just eat all of this?
- bigyabai 10mo agoI'm not sure, all of my devices run a Firefox fork.

- nine_k 10mo agoDo you mean you let Claude Code and other such tools act directly on your personal or corporate machine, under your own account? Not in an isolated VM or box? I'm shocked, shocked. Sadly, not joking at all.
- mattwilsonn888 10mo agoWhy not? The individual grunt knows it is more productive and the managers tolerate a non-zero amount of risk with incompetent or disgruntled workers anyways. If you have clean access privileges then the productivity gain is worth the risk, a risk that we could argue is marginally higher or barely higher. If the workplace also provides the system then the efficiency in auditing operations makes up for any added risk.
- croes 10mo agoIncompetent workers are liable. Who’s liable when AI makes a big mistake?
- sheepscreek 10mo agoThis made me want to laugh so hard. I think this idea came from the same place as beta testing “Full Autopilot” with human guinea pigs. Great minds… Jokes aside, Anthropic CEO commands a tad more respect from me, on taking a more principals approach and sticking to it (at least better than their biggest rival). Also for inventing the code agent in the terminal category.
- stingraycharles 10mo agoAll things considered Anthropic seems like they’re doing most things the right way, and seemed to be focused on professional use more than OpenAI and Grok, and Opus 4.5 is really an incredibly good model. Yes, they know how to use their safety research as marketing, and yes, they got a big DoD contract, but I don’t think that fundamentally conflicts with their core mission. And honestly, some of their research they publish is genuinely interesting.
- IAmGraydon 10mo ago>Also for inventing the code agent in the terminal category. Not even close. That distinction belongs to Aider, which was released 1.5 years before Claude Code.
- sheepscreek 10mo agoOh cool, I didn’t know that.
- bpavuk 10mo agolet me be a date-time nerd for a split second: - Claude Code released Introducing Claude Code video on 24 Feb 2025 [0] - Aider's oldest known GitHub release, v0.5.0, is dated 8 Jun 2025 [1] [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJpK3YTTKZ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJpK3YTTKZ4 [1]: https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider/releases/tag/v0.5.0 https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider/releases/tag/v0.5.0
- jeeeb 10mo agoThat’s 8th of June 2023 not 2025.. almost 2 years before Claude Code was released. I remember evaluating Aider and Cursor side by side before Claude Code existed.
- m4rtink 10mo agoYou are mean to lead - it solved serious issues with engines back then and enabling their use in many useful way, likely saving more people than it poisoned.
