VRSS | All | Browser Company Abandons Arc for AI-Powered Successor |

Feed: Slashdot Feed Link: https://slashdot.org/ --- Title: Browser Company Abandons Arc for AI-Powered Successor Link: https://it.slashdot.org/story/25/05/27/141246... The Browser Company has ceased the active development of its Arc browser to focus on Dia, a new AI-powered browser currently in alpha testing, the company said Tuesday. In a lengthy letter to users, CEO Josh Miller said the startup should have stopped working on Arc "a year earlier," noting data showing the browser suffered from a "novelty tax" problem where users found it too different to adopt widely. Arc struggled with low feature adoption -- only 5.52% of daily active users regularly used multiple Spaces, while 4.17% used Live Folders. The company will continue maintenance updates for Arc but won't add new features. Arc also won't open-source the browser because it relies on proprietary infrastructure called ADK (Arc Development Kit) that remains core to the company's value.
