Brave’s New AI Feature: A Hilarious Leap Toward Privacy with a Side of Danger!
Brave’s new AI browsing feature, powered by Leo, tackles the web like a privacy-focused superhero. While it can compare products and find promo codes, it’s not ready for mission-critical tasks. Running in a safe, separate profile, it promises no AI-driven cookie theft or accidental downloads from the Chrome Web Store.

Hot Take:
Oh Brave, you cheeky little browser, always trying to stay one step ahead in the AI game while keeping our privacy intact! Introducing Leo, your new AI buddy who’s like the overachieving intern nobody asked for but everyone secretly wants. Just don’t let Leo near your critical operations—he’s still learning, after all. But hey, with all those layers of protection, maybe Leo’s got more armor than a medieval knight on a bad day!
Key Points:
- Brave introduces Leo, an AI assistant, for tasks like web research and news summarization.
- The AI browsing feature is in testing, accessible via Brave Nightly, and is disabled by default.
- Brave emphasizes the feature’s inherent risks and implements strict privacy measures.
- An alignment checker mechanism ensures AI actions match user intent.
- Brave encourages tester feedback and offers doubled bug bounty rewards for AI browsing issues.
