Dia browser

The Browser Company of New York is back at it. Here is a link to a post titled "Letter to Arc members 2025" with an update on the abandoned Arc browser and and update on the work they've been doing on the new "Dia browser", which just appears to be Chrome but where you’ve set your homepage to chatgpt.com.(What the hell is an “Arc member” by the way? It’s a browser.)And here is a link to the Dia browser website, with a (very masturbatory) intro video which makes it seem like it’s just Apple Intelligence, except for instead of the interface being Siri, the interface is the browser search bar.The video has lots of shots like this where the guy says things like "you can literally dream about some wild new interface for AI and the web" with the focus fading in and out in a totally insufferable wayI cannot understate how little faith I have in this project.Further reading: Here is a link to Tom MacWright with the exact same take, and here is a link to my previous opinions about Arc & why I didn't use it back then, which maybe means that I'm just a Hater.
