Comet AI Browser From Perplexity

Some initial impressions on the AI-first web browser from Perplexity, Comet:

• A little buggy: when I visited a new website from an existing tab and opened Assistant, it rant the same prompt from last time which didn’t make sense within the context of the current website.
• Assistant doesn’t seem to be as fully utilizing the current page as context as I hoped, it just felt like chat next to the web site rather than integrated somehow.

  Just like AI coding agents are forking VSCode so that agents have more control over the development environment, AI companies are forking Chromium so that agents have more control over the browser environment.
