The #1 reason I would never EVER use any of these AI agents or browsers or whatever, is despite what these companies may say, they don't work work for ME, the work for the corporations who own them, and those corporations don't give a single f*ck about any of us, all they care about is money.

That means if I want to buy a widget, and I ask the AI to find me the best deal on a widget, the AI agent isn't actually going to find me the lowest priced widget, but rather the widget that makes the most profit for the AI company and whichever widget maker has paid the AI company the most money to have their AI promote it.

There will be zero transparency and accountability around any of this, and all the AI agent / browser companies will claim their AIs are working for their "Users" but like everything else these days they'll actually be working for whichever sleazebag scammer or deep pocketed mega corp that's willing to pay them the most money to shill their products, as there's just far too great an incentive to lie, cheat, steal and deceive, and if capitalism has taught us anything, its that principles get tossed in the bin ASAP as soon as real money gets involved.
