| When every goddamn webpage presents itself to me like this: https://i.imgur.com/mMi8an3.png I do need machines to do the browsing for me. |

| The idea is you could ask a to browser to do things like operate on multiple websites to do boring stuff, e.g. cross check phone reviews across sites x y and z. I 100% don't feel comfortable letting my browser work alone, but "agentic browsers" are a thing some people want and/or are building. |

| It’s not browsing we are lazy at. It’s parsing through ton of results until we find what we were looking for. |
