From The Verge.
The era of the AI browser is here, and OpenAI is finally in the game. Nilay, Jake, and Hayden sit down to chat about what it means to have ChatGPT in your browser and able to control your cursor and surf the web for you. Also this week: Nilay’s warning about using old surge protectors, the devastating and inevitable outcome of the Warner Bros. Discovery acquisition, and Samsung’s Galaxy XR headset, which looks a lot like a Vision Pro. Finally, Brendan Carr Is A Dummy makes it triumphant return. And we wrap it all up with the Lightning Round, talking about the the Friend protest, GM’s decision to ditch CarPlay, the AWS outage, the future of the Xbox, and more. #Vergecast #Podcast #Technology
