Yeah, agnetic browsers can do your work for you.
TikTok's parent company is now one of the world's most successful 'startups' A recent funding round has valued Bytedance, the company behind TikTok, at $480 billion, which is only just behind OpenAI's $500 billion valuation. Even though the US company may be sold or transferred, Bloomberg reports there was fierce interest in the stock sale with seven companies bidding, driving the valuation from $360 billion. Perplexity is bringing its AI browser to Android and beyond The underdog AI company and the first to make an AI enabled browser is expanding to take on Google directly. The Android app is now available, the iOS version is days away from launch, and it's also available for Mac and Windows making it much more widely available than the ChatGPT browser. Perplexity's goal is to be your go to search engine, trying to break Google's 20 year dominance. WhatsApp is getting the Instagram Notes feature You'll now be able to set a 'status' message that can either be seen publicly or just by your contacts. Just like Instagram Notes, the message only stays up for a day by default, but you can set it for longer or shorter if you want. It's another step to seemingly align all the Meta-owned messaging services – Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Okay, let's talk about AI and what I've been calling the “DoorDash problem.” This is about to define the next battle in AI, and it might completely transform not only how you order a sandwich, but also how the entire internet economy works in general. If you've been listening to the show this past year, you've heard me bring up the Doordash problem nearly a dozen times. I've been asking CEOs and leaders in tech and AI about it any chance I can get. Now, a lawsuit between Amazon and Perplexity is bringing this exact issue to the forefront, kicking off a major AI browser fight that could define the future of agents and the web itself.

This is the daily Tech and Business Report. Today, KCBS Radio anchor Holly Quna spoke with Bloomberg's Natalie Lung. San Francisco-based Perplexity AI is out with a version of its Comet browser for mobile devices.
Have you ever wondered what happens when the browser stops being a simple window to the web and starts becoming the control point for how AI touches every part of enterprise life? That was the starting point for my conversation with Michael Shieh, founder and CEO of Mammoth Cyber. What followed was a detailed look at why the browser is turning into the foundation of enterprise AI and why the shift is arriving faster than many expect. Michael shared why employees already spend most of their working lives inside a browser and how this makes it the natural place for AI to support decisions, speed up routine work, and act as the interface between people, applications, and data. But we also spoke about the uncomfortable reality behind that convenience. When consumer AI browsers rush ahead with features that harvest data or request wide-reaching permissions, the trade off between speed and governance becomes harder to ignore. Michael explained how this gap leaves security teams unable to see where sensitive data is being sent or how shadow AI creeps into daily workflows without oversight. During our conversation he broke down what makes an enterprise AI browser different. We talked about policy controlled access, device trust, identity federation, and the safeguards that protect AI from hazards like indirect prompt injection. Michael also described how the Mammoth team built a multi layer security model that monitors what the AI can view, what it cannot view, and how data moves across applications in real time. His examples of DLP at the point of use, low friction controls for workers, and granular visibility for security teams showed how the browser is becoming the new enforcement boundary for zero trust. We also covered the growing tension between traditional access models like VPNs or VDI and the faster, lightweight deployment Mammoth is offering to large enterprises. Hearing Michael explain how some customers replaced heavy remote access stacks in weeks made it clear that this is more than a new product category. It hints at an early move toward AI shaped workflows running directly at the endpoint rather than through centralised infrastructure. As he looked ahead to the next few years, Michael shared why he expects the browser to operate as a kind of operating system for enterprise AI, blending native AI agents, web apps, and policy controls into a single environment. This episode raises an important question. If the browser becomes the place where AI reads, writes, and interprets information, how should enterprises think about identity, trust, and control when the pace of AI adoption accelerates again next year? I would love to hear your thoughts.
Watch us on YouTube!Ed and Paul dive deep into OpenAI's massive long-term compute commitments and what it means for the company's economics, competitive positioning, and the broader AI arms race. They break down the tension between explosive revenue growth and unprecedented spending, the venture-logic behind “land-grab” behavior, and the risks these commitments pose to both vendors and competitors. In the second half, the conversation turns to Microsoft Teams, the EU's antitrust ruling, and the messy realities of bundling, competition, and predatory pricing — all served with classic Results Junkies candor, startup-operator logic, and more than a few cheeseburger metaphors. Topics & Timestamps 00:05 – Opening banter & travel logistics Ed and Paul compare time zones, Vegas scenery, and the eternal quest for a cheeseburger. 01:04 – Housekeeping Where to find Ed and Paul online; quick reminders for Results Junkies listeners. 01:20 – OpenAI's staggering compute spend Discussing the article outlining OpenAI's commitment to tens of billions in annual compute spending — and why the math seems wild compared to current revenue. 03:20 – Revenue vs. spend: does the model scale? How OpenAI reportedly moved from $1.7B to $12B annualized revenue in ~18 months — and whether that trajectory justifies a $60B/year commitment. 04:40 – Venture-style land-grab logic Why this looks like a classic “spend now, dominate later” strategy — just at an unprecedented scale. 06:00 – What happens if OpenAI misses the commitment? Exploring the vendor-risk problem: what does a partner do when they're left $10–20B short? 07:27 – Founders vs. investors: who's really risking what? Why downside risk isn't shared equally — especially when founders have little capital invested. 08:04 – Barriers to competition increase dramatically The larger these commitments get, the harder it becomes for smaller AI startups to realistically compete. 08:35 – Capacity lock-up strategies Why monopolizing vendor resources may be a conscious competitive tactic. 09:17 – Transition to Microsoft Teams & Slack's EU complaint Ed outlines the EU's ruling requiring Microsoft to unbundle Teams and adjust pricing. 10:58 – Is this really a European-only issue? A look at how bundling plays out in the US market as well. 11:36 – The role of precedent Can EU regulatory pressure spill into US practice? 12:22 – Government-mandated pricing: tricky territory Paul reacts to the idea of regulators dictating price gaps — and why it feels risky through a startup-operator lens. 14:01 – Is Teams effectively a “free burger”? Ed argues that bundling Teams at near-zero cost resembles predatory pricing designed to box out Slack. 15:49 – Revisiting antitrust basics Where's the line between aggressive competition and anti-competitive behavior? 17:33 – Airline analogy: when incumbents crush challengers Ed recounts how United Airlines once priced a regional competitor out of existence — and why the dynamic resembles the Microsoft–Slack situation. 18:59 – Could giants always “out-capacity” challengers? Why big players can add supply and out-discount smaller competitors indefinitely. 20:01 – Independence Air and the Dulles example A real-world case study in predatory pricing and market power. 22:12 – The free-market debate A nuanced discussion on where regulators should intervene. 23:01 – US vs. Microsoft (2000s) Why the landmark browser-bundling case still matters today. 25:17 – How defaults create de-facto monopolies Browsers then; team-collaboration suites now. 27:01 – Why Teams frustrates so many users Ed's legendary rant: stability issues, UX complaints, and cross-platform challenges. 28:29 – The cheeseburger episode idea A running joke about turning Results Junkies into a Bourdain-style food-and-business hybrid. 28:48 – More Vegas talk & logistics Travel schedule, long hotel stays, and construction-trip life. 30:07 – How Vegas won over Dana Why today's Vegas is more dining and convenience than chaos. 30:30 – Cheeseburger Day, store openings & invites Future events, potential travel, and family logistics.

Well, I have a new to me and probably to you do-dad to help with anxiety symptoms. It is the Opera Air Mindfulness browser. In addition to the standard browsing features it has tools to help you breath and relax, guided meditations and a musical audio mode that can help you focus. Is this a good or bad thing? The TLDR: Some of the tech bros say it is a gimmick and who in their right mind would use it? In my bad times, I would have glommed on to it because I was looking for help. Lots of people are looking for mental health support and aren't too picky where they find it. (we should be, but when a person is in pain they are going to do what they think they need to do.) I like many of the features but there is a cost. Free ain't free especially online. Opera Air, like many other browsers is ad supported or allow third party extensions to be used in the browser. Many browser allow ads and cookie tracking to be passed onto those third party data collectors. A Virtual Private Network (VPN) can hide your location and computer. You generally need to tell it what you want. A free VPN can be problematic. Who is operating it, where is the data passing through and what if it is down and you don't know it? Or it is blocking you from seeing certain web sites? The security features require users to turn them on. If you don't, oopsie? Also, if you use those third party vendors extensions, you are subject to their terms of service which might include things you in no way agree to. Again, I am not bashing the browser. I like the reminders about getting up and moving or taking a breathing breaks. But I do want folks to know what the benefits to you is versus cost of your privacy and personal information. That will be up to you to decide. Resources Mentioned: If you would like to see how Opera Air works, Brett in Tech has an overview video of the features of the software. Before you download, I would suggest reading the Opera Help Page and read the FAQs so that you understand what you gain and give up when you use the browser.

Es gibt zwar keine Studien, mit denen sich die Entwicklung beweisen liesse. Doch der Trend scheint klar: Immer mehr Arbeit verlagert sich von lokal installierten Programmen in die Cloud. Unter Windows, am Mac und am Linux-Computer verbringen wir die allermeiste Arbeitszeit im Browser und in der Cloud. Die bunte Vielfalt an Programmen ist weitgehend überflüssig. Und die einst lebendige Shareware- und Freeware-Szene wirkt wie ein Relikt aus vergangener Zeit. Sogar bei den App-Stores für die Mobilgeräte tut sich nicht mehr viel – mit Ausnahme vielleicht der Games. Wir analysieren, blicken zurück und geben Tipps zu dem Programm, das von dieser Entwicklung profitiert – dem Browser.

This episode mixes a few personal updates — balancing work, creativity, and life — with the top three AI trends every designer should know about this season:Vibe-Coding Goes Mainstream: How design teams are using emotional prototyping and AI-generated “vibes” to test concepts and shape user experiences faster than ever.AI Design Ecosystems: Adobe and Canva are reinventing what design software means — merging creativity, speed, and automation into intelligent creative platforms.The Rise of AI Browsers: With tools like OpenAI's Atlas, browsing becomes conversational — and UX designers must start designing for both humans and AI agents.You'll walk away with fresh insights on how these changes are redefining creativity, how to stay ahead as a designer, and why human-centered thinking matters more than ever.Because the future of UX isn't about AI replacing us — it's about designers who know how to think with it.
News and Updates: New research from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory finds rising U.S. electricity prices stem from aging infrastructure, costly parts, and natural disasters — not AI or data centers. Brave Software exposed vulnerabilities in AI browsers like Perplexity's Comet and Fellou, showing hidden text in images can trigger prompt-injection hacks that access user data. AI search tools from Google, OpenAI, and others surface less popular websites than traditional search, broadening source diversity and fueling a new field called “Answer Engine Optimization.” PayPal will integrate directly into ChatGPT via OpenAI's new Agentic Commerce Protocol, enabling users to chat, shop, and pay without leaving the platform starting in 2026. Microsoft's Mustafa Suleyman reaffirmed that Copilot won't engage in romance or erotic chats, emphasizing emotionally intelligent but “boundaried” AI designed for safety and family use. OpenAI finalized its conversion to a public-benefit corporation valued at $130 billion, giving Microsoft a 27% stake and pushing its market cap above $4 trillion as the firms deepen cooperation.

We're back with another AI-driven topic this week, agentic browsers. Specifically, after two weeks of using it, we give our thoughts on OpenAI's new Atlas browser.Agentic browsers (browsers with integrated AI agents that can autonomously perform tasks by navigating and interacting with websites on a user's behalf) are here, and Roop says they have the potential to change the way we interact with the internet forever.Instead of just showing web pages, these new browsers, like OpenAI's Atlas (currently available to OSX users only), Perplexity's Comet, are built to understand, plan, and act. They can read and interpret content, complete tasks, and even make purchases (!) on behalf of users. For marketers, this means the online audience is no longer made up of just people. AI agents will increasingly be the ones discovering, summarizing, and deciding what gets attention.And as Sam and Roop have been discussing for a couple of months now, these AI shifts makes content quality and its structure more important than ever for brands.So listen in as the gang gives their hands-on thoughts of Atlas, and join us next week when we talk AI again, this time OpenAI and PayPal's recent partnership and what it could mean for e-commerce in the near future.— Sam, Roop and ClaudiaTell us what you think!

Episode 302 of Absolute AppSec has hosts Ken Johnson and Seth Law speculating on the upcoming Global AppSec DC conference, predicting the announcement of the OWASP Top Ten 2025 edition, with Brian Glass scheduled to discuss it on the podcast. The conversation shifts to a technical discussion of OpenAI's new browser, Atlas, which is built on Chromium and includes AI capabilities. The hosts noted concern over the discovered prompt instructions for Atlas, which direct the ChatGPT agent to use browser history and available APIs to find data from the user's logged-in sites to answer ambiguous queries or fulfill requests. This functionality raises significant security concerns, as the agent's ability to comb the cache and logged-in sites could be exploited, effectively creating a "honeypot for cross-site scripting" with malicious potential like unauthorized money transfers. The hosts discussed the lack of talk submissions on Mobile Context Protocol (MCP) security at the conference, despite its growing relevance in a world of AI agents and tooling. Finally, they highlighted a new tool called SlopGuard, developed to prevent the risk of AI hallucinating non-existent, potentially malicious packages (which occurs 5-21% of the time) and attempting to install them from registries like NPM.
Co-hosts Mark Thompson and Steve Little discuss how new AI browsers are changing how genealogists research. They compare OpenAI's Atlas, Microsoft Edge, Google's Gemini, and Perplexity's Comet, explaining which features help family historians most.The hosts share lessons from the early AOL era that can be applied to the AI era. They also explore Anthropic's new Haiku 4.5, a very fast model that works great for simple tasks like transcription and summarization.Don't miss this week's Tip of the Week, where Steve shows how AI can help you write better AI prompts. He uses an example for extracting information from draft cards to show how useful this approach can be.In RapidFire, they cover new AI features in spreadsheets, major improvements in transcribing old handwriting, and how Microsoft Copilot's new agent store tries to help you with common tasks.Timestamps:In the News:01:20 Browser Wars Heat Up: OpenAI Atlas, Edge, and Gemini Compete16:50 What AI Can Learn from AOL: Avoiding Walled Garden Mistakes29:10 Anthropic's Haiku 4.5: When Smaller Models Beat Bigger OnesTip of the Week:39:50 Using AI to Write Better Prompts for Historical DocumentsRapidFire:47:19 AI Makes Spreadsheets Easier: Google Sheets vs Excel54:35 Reading Old Handwriting Gets Better: DeepSeek and Google Updates01:05:15 Microsoft Copilot Adds Writing and Prompt CoachesResource Links:Genealogy and AI Facebook to hit 20k users! https://www.facebook.com/groups/genealogyandaiAn In-Depth Look at OpenAI's AI Browserhttps://intuitionlabs.ai/articles/chatgpt-atlas-openai-browserDeepSeek AI created DeepSeek-OCR https://www.infoq.com/news/2025/10/deepseek-ocr/Nearly perfect on handwriting recognition https://generativehistory.substack.com/p/has-google-quietly-solved-two-ofGlobal AI Browser Market Sizehttps://market.us/report/ai-browser-market/Benchmarking Claude Haiku 4.5 and Sonnet 4.5 on 400 Real PRshttps://www.qodo.ai/blog/thinking-vs-thinking-benchmarking-claude-haiku-4-5-and-sonnet-4-5-on-400-real-prs/Anthropic's Claude Haiku 4.5 Brings Enterprise-Grade Speed and Savings to Customer-Facing AIhttps://www.cxtoday.com/contact-center/anthropics-claude-haiku-4-5-brings-enterprise-grade-speed-and-savings-to-customer-facing-ai/Top 10 AI Spreadsheet Toolshttps://www.knack.com/blog/top-ai-spreadsheet-tools/Prompt Coach: Prebuilt agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot Chathttps://rishonapowerplatform.com/2025/03/11/prompt-coach-prebuilt-agent-for-microsoft-365-copilot-chat/Tags:Artificial Intelligence, Genealogy, AI Browsers, OpenAI Atlas, Google Gemini, Microsoft Edge, Perplexity Comet, Anthropic Haiku, Meta-Prompting, Spreadsheet AI, OCR Technology, Handwritten Text, DeepSeek, Microsoft Copilot, AI Agents, Document Extraction, Family History, Browser Wars, AI Models

OpenAI released its new web browser, Atlas, in a bid to become our main conduit to the internet. Plus, we learned this week that Amazon may be planning to expand its use of robots and shrink its use of humans at its warehouses. And this week's disruptive outage at Amazon Web Services reminded us of just how much we depend on cloud computing, even for a good night's sleep. Marketplace's Nova Safo discussed all of this with Jewel Burks Solomon, managing partner at the venture firm Collab Capital, for this week's Marketplace Tech Bytes: Week in Review.
