Opera reveals AI-powered Aria to rival Edge's Bing Chat

Opera has recently introduced Aria, an AI feature designed to enhance the browsing experience for its users. Aria may provide free access to generative AI services natively built into the browser. It also enables users to collaborate with AI while searching the web, writing text or code, and obtaining product information.

The incorporation of Aria into Opera signifies a remarkable development in web browsing. Users now have the opportunity to leverage the power of AI while performing various online tasks, including web searches, content creation, and seeking product information.

"AI is rapidly changing how we work, browse the web and naturally, how we think about browsers and the part they can play in users" online experience," said Product Director, Opera for PC. "Fittingly, Aria is our first product that named itself."

Opera"s collaboration with OpenAI"s GPT technology and its plans to integrate additional services demonstrate the company"s commitment to improving Aria"s capabilities continuously.
