One of the hottest new browsers is also the best thing that's happened to my YouTube experience
Adamya Sharma / Android Authority We hadn't even heard of agentic AI until recently, and now suddenly, companies like Google, OpenAI, and others are betting big on the tech. These aren't just chatbots that answer your questions; they're smart assistants that actually get things done for you. Think of it as AI with initiative. An agentic AI won't just help you find the best coffee shop in your area — it'll figure out what beans they use, order them for you from Amazon, and even schedule a recurring delivery if you want. But that's just a basic, surface-level example. The real magic is in how these systems are evolving. They're increasingly able to make decisions, take actions, and accomplish goals with little human input. And Perplexity's Comet Assistant is a prime example of what this kind of AI can do when embedded into something we've used for decades — the web browser. Meet Comet: The browser that does more than just browse Adamya Sharma / Android Authority When I first fired up Comet, Perplexity's brand-new AI browser, currently in invite-only beta for Mac and Windows, I didn't expect my browsing experience to change this dramatically. Built on Chromium, the browser is surprisingly compatible with all my Chrome extensions and allowed a one-click migration of all my Chrome data. I expected some heavy lifting while moving from Chrome to Comet, but it was smooth as butter. The real magic, though, is the Comet Assistant. It's an AI agent that you can pull up over any web page to help with tasks, answer questions, and basically act like a super-powered sidekick. While my colleague Karandeep has already covered its broader capabilities that make Google Chrome feel outdated, I want to tell you how it specifically revolutionized my YouTube watching experience, which is saying a lot for someone like me. YouTube, but make it smarter Adamya Sharma / Android Authority I'm not YouTube's typical audience. As I've ranted in the past while grumbling about being pushed into YouTube Premium (I eventually caved), I don't use the platform as a constant source of entertainment. For me, YouTube is a utility. Life with two toddlers, a full-time job here at AA, and a schedule where every minute counts (no, I'm not the president, just a mom trying to survive) leaves me no time to watch long videos. So my YouTube time is functional, and I only turn to the platform when I need to. Whether it's a video on how to assemble kids' furniture, fix my husband's broken PlayStation controller, cook something special for Saturday dinner, or catch a JerryRigEverything teardown (just for the satisfaction), I'm there with a purpose. Sometimes, I'll even indulge in a music video or two, but that's about as far as I go. In short, my time is limited and valuable. Even if I wanted to binge-watch for hours, I simply can't. Also, unlike most users today who watch YouTube on their TVs — according to YouTube's own stats — I almost exclusively watch it on my laptop, in a browser. Pixel 10 Pro rumor Video summary With the Comet assistant always accessible in the browser, I can ask for summaries of videos instead of digging through clunky transcripts, or worse, watching whole videos. Instead, I can have a normal, natural-sounding chat with the Comet Assistant, and everything I'm looking for pops up right in the browser's side panel. Comet is a gamechanger for anyone who wants to go beyond just passively watching YouTube content. Take, for example, the Pixel 10 Pro rumor roundup video we recently posted on Android Authority's YouTube channel. I didn't have time to sit through the full 11-minute video, so I asked Comet's Assistant to summarize all the new details in bullet points (see image above). Showing Pixel 10 Pro pre-order information Signing up for Pixel 10 Pro pre-order updates In the same breath, I asked it to check if the Pixel 10 Pro was available for pre-order on the Google Store. Now, I already knew the phone isn't launching until next month, but I was curious to see how the AI handled the request. And it nailed it. It not only gave me a neat summary of the video but also pulled accurate information about the phone's availability from the Google Store, all without me having to leave the YouTube window. It even told me I could sign up for launch notifications, and when I asked it to do that too, it went ahead and signed me up. That's a total gamechanger, not just for time-starved, lazy YouTube watchers like me, but for anyone who wants to go beyond just passively watching content and act on the information instead. Your personal chef, shopper, and DJ — All in one tab Another magical use case I stumbled upon was while watching recipe videos. Comet's Assistant didn't just summarize the cooking process (in as much detail or brevity as I wanted), it also let me say things like, 'Order the ingredients for this recipe,' and then just went off to Amazon, found the items, added them to my cart, and placed the order. I didn't need to give it extra permissions or jump through hoops. Since I was already logged into Amazon in my browser, the items automatically showed up in my cart. It even made the smart distinction between Amazon Fresh and regular Amazon items, and only added the ingredients it figured I wouldn't already have, skipping over pantry staples. That's really a stroke of genius. Honestly, I wish my husband could shop this well for a YouTube recipe, but alas, he's only human. Adamya Sharma / Android Authority I also took the Comet Assistant for a spin with a few other YouTube tasks, and once again, it didn't disappoint. It often helped me skip directly to the exact parts of a video I cared about. I also asked it to create a playlist of Galaxy Z Fold 7 YouTube Shorts: done and saved to my library in seconds. Then I tried the same with music and asked it to find similar songs to the one I was listening to. Sure enough, it did and added a new pop mix to my library without a hitch. No endless clicking, thinking, no distractions. Just results. The best part is you can see the AI's thought process and the actions it's taking in real time right there in the browser's side panel. It's like you're in its brain. If the Assistant is working on something that might take a bit, like adding a long list of ingredients to your Amazon cart, you don't have to sit and wait. You can carry on with your day, browse or watch something else, take a quick lunch break, and return to find the task done. It all happens quietly in the background. Google's Gemini still playing catch-up? Rita El Khoury / Android Authority Now, I know Google's not sitting still. The company has rolled out Gemini inside the YouTube app with the handy 'Ask about this video' button, but honestly, it doesn't come close to what Comet's AI assistant can do on the browser. I'd love to see Google take Gemini to this level on mobile, especially since a lot of YouTube viewing happens there. Sure, Google has Gemini integrated into Chrome for AI Pro and Ultra subscribers, but its accessibility is limited, given that it's only available in the US for English-language users on desktop. I'd love to give it a spin when it's available here in my country, but for now, Comet is the AI browser experience I've been craving. I really wanted Chrome to be my first taste of an agentic AI-powered browser, but alas, that may not happen for some time. All said and done, the future of browsers is looking bloody exciting. Comet is proof that AI isn't just about answering questions anymore. It's about making everyday tasks more convenient, and in my case, it's making YouTube a whole lot less painful and a lot more productive.

Safety vs innovation: Delicate balance as China mulls stricter rules for smart driving technology
BEIJING: When Zhang Zhe, a 28-year-old Chinese bank manager, bought a Xiaomi SU7 electric vehicle equipped with smart technology in Beijing last October, he was eager to test out its autonomous driving features. The vehicle was able to steer, accelerate and brake on its own, Zhang said, only needing a physical grip on the steering wheel to indicate that he was present. 'I have faith in the car,' Zhang said, adding that it could also follow traffic rules and avoided contact with other vehicles on the road. But even with his years of experience behind the wheel, Zhang admitted he still felt a little uneasy. 'The functions work as designed (but) they just don't feel natural,' he said. Accelerating and braking could be abrupt and feel "overly mechanical" at times, he added. The system would also hesitate to change lanes or take more cautious turns than a human driver would. Smart driving assistance features in cars and new electric vehicles (NEVs) have been rapidly advancing and gaining popularity in China as automakers compete to launch new models equipped with state-of-the-art automated systems. Companies like Chinese electric vehicle giant BYD, also the world's largest EV maker, have accelerated the trend, observers say, rolling out technology like its 'God's Eye' assisted-driving system which allows for adaptive cruising and drivers to park or control their vehicles using their mobile phones. But road accidents and fatal crashes involving self-driving cars have followed and many drivers like Zhang say they are still learning to trust and navigate these new smart safety systems. A "STRATEGIC RESET"? Officials have since moved to introduce new guidelines for smart driving technology, aimed at enhancing public safety and trust. Also in the works are stricter regulations on remote software updates for assisted-driving systems, which would require regulatory approval for key updates impacting vehicle safety or performance. Experts who spoke to CNA said they were expecting the new rules to be rigorous, claiming many Chinese automakers had been falling short of official standards. 'Right now, Chinese car manufacturers and driving software developers transmit and install updates on vehicles almost freely,' said Jia Yanbo, a Beijing-based expert with more than a decade of experience developing safety technology systems for vehicles. 'They collect data remotely, develop new functions that may not have been fully tested or validated on public roads and then push them to cars over the internet,' Jia added. 'Moving forward, authorities should review this carefully and require longer testing periods before such updates are rolled out.' Others said the new rules could be a 'strategic reset' for China's smart tech ambitions, which in turn, could boost global consumer trust in Chinese-made smart vehicles. A clear national guideline could 'set the tone' for Chinese carmakers, said David Zhang, General Secretary of the International Intelligent Vehicle Engineering Association (IIVEA), who added that the new standards should require more efforts like added investment and testing. Compliance would take time, Zhang added, as companies rush to meet the tougher new safety requirements. This in turn, could hinder market growth until a wider regulatory picture is established. "Like any product, (smart driving technology) must be learned and used properly," Zhang said. "Misuse can have consequences." L3 SELF-DRIVING VEHICLES A notice issued on Jun 4 by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) announced a public consultation as it welcomed feedback on smart driving technologies. It followed an earlier advisory delivered by the ministry during a high-profile meeting between officials and nearly 60 automakers back in April, where measures like banning the use of misleading words in ads were discussed. In its notice, MIIT said 55.3 per cent of all new smart passenger vehicles sold in China were equipped with Level 2 (L2) or higher driver-assistance systems. According to official guidelines, L2 systems allow a car to control steering, acceleration and braking simultaneously but drivers are still required to be alert and engaged, monitoring road conditions at all times. L3-ready vehicles are also being introduced, enabling hands-off driving under specific conditions, with the self-driving automated system assuming primary control while still expecting the driver to intervene when needed. Levels 4 and 5, still in early testing stages, remain limited to small-scale robo-taxi and shuttle trials in cities like Beijing and Shenzhen - with regulators keeping mass deployment on hold until safety benchmarks and infrastructure catch up. L4-ready vehicles are said to be capable of handle almost all driving within mapped areas, while L5-ready would see full automation in any setting, with no need for a driver at all. Growing use of these systems has enhanced the driving experience but has also 'led to a series of traffic accidents, drawing widespread public attention', MIIT said. The draft standards aim to tighten oversight, improve testing and safety benchmarks while pushing domestic carmakers toward faster upgrades, it added - all to ensure rapid innovation does not come at the expense of public trust and safety. ROAD FATALITIES Analysts believe that recent high-profile crashes involving smart driving vehicles prompted government action. A fatal accident on Mar 29, involving Xiaomi's best-selling SU7 electric sedan, drew widespread attention. The vehicle, equipped with a smart driving automated system, had crashed into a concrete barrier while cruising along a highway in Tongling, a prefecture city in the southern Anhui province. All three female university students on board were killed and families raised concern about potential system malfunction, resulting in the loss of control and jammed doors. Responding to public questions, Xiaomi officials confirmed that the car had been in Navigation on Autopilot (NOA) mode, travelling at around 116kmh when it detected an obstacle. Although the driver had taken control, the car collided with a cement barrier, they said. The vehicle's AEB (Automatic Emergency Braking) system 'does not respond to common obstacles such as traffic cones, water barriers, rocks or animals', officials added. Another accident involving a smart driving car was recorded in December. An Aito M7, a premium Huawei-backed EV, was travelling at 120kmh and had been in its smart assisted driving mode when it rear-ended a stationary truck. Its driver, a former winner of an intelligent driving competition, was also injured in the crash. Experts said the incidents highlighted broader issues within China's fast-evolving intelligent driving landscape - showing a clear disconnect between drivers and smart driving technology. 'Not everyone (will) understand the technology in a systematic way,' said Jia, adding that implementing official guidelines would be good in helping drivers and the industry 'know the limits'. 'The bottom line for smart driving technology is about safety,' he said. Others said stringent law enforcement would be necessary. Many drivers remain unaware of wider risks, said Guan Lipeng, co-founder of a Chinese automobile content platform. 'Standardised regulations that draw a clear line would force carmakers and marketers to confront safety concerns directly,' Guan said. 'It would also help raise overall safety standards across the industry.' Tu Le, founder and managing director of Sino Auto Insights, a transportation innovation and management consultant firm, noted that 'almost every major Chinese automaker now' had some form of smart driving function. 'The technology is being put in the hands of people who may not fully understand it, or are careless in how they use it,' Tu said, adding that many drivers gained a 'false sense' of confidence after operating smart car systems for just a few minutes. 'The Chinese government does not care if fault lies with the driver or the system,' Tu said. 'The bottom line is that people are dying (and officials are) trying to get ahead as more of these systems hit the road.' DANGEROUS 'IMPATIENCE' While Chinese automakers like BYD have been rapidly outpacing foreign rivals like Tesla, officials are threading a fine line between innovation and safety. In unusually candid remarks made during a conference on Jul 14, Chinese President Xi Jinping questioned the rush by local authorities pouring resources into sectors such as NEVs and AI. 'Whenever a project is proposed, it always involves a few things: artificial intelligence, computing power, new energy vehicles,' Xi said in comments carried by state media outlets, also cautioning against 'impatience for quick results'. 'Does every province in the country have to develop industries in these directions?' His message was reinforced two days later by Chinese Premier Li Qiang during a state council meeting, where he called for tighter regulation of 'irrational competition' in China's NEV sector. China's smart vehicle market remains fragmented, said Guan, noting that numerous smaller players had been producing smart driving technology to varying standards. Without broad regulatory oversight, it would be difficult to enforce consistent benchmarks 'not only for business performance but also for safety', he added. But at the same time, introducing overly stringent rules could jolt an industry unprepared to meet tougher requirements, Guan said. The shock could destabilise the Chinese market, forcing smaller firms out of business if stricter rules significantly disrupted operations. 'It will result in a strategic reset of sorts,' said Guan. 'Right now, I'd estimate eight out of 10 players would fail to meet higher testing or validation standards.' Others dismissed concerns that tighter oversight would stifle innovation, noting that China still remained far ahead of its global competitors like the US in rolling out smart driving vehicles and features. 'This isn't about slowing the industry down relative to competitors,' said Tu. 'It's about making sure unnecessary deaths and accidents don't undermine public trust in a technology that's now in almost every new vehicle.' THE ROAD AHEAD According to data released in June by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), China exported 205,000 NEVs in June 2025, marking a 140 per cent jump from 2024. Chinese developers and NEV brands like BYD and the state-owned Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC) have also been ramping up exports to international markets like Europe, Latin America and Southeast Asia. The industry has become one of the key fronts in China's broader technology war with the US, experts said, and Beijing will remain determined not to let recent setbacks derail its path to becoming a smart driving technology leader. 'China is set to continue its strong lead in the new energy smart car space, and for good reason,' said Zhang. 'Tighter regulations may make the curve harder to climb in the short term (but) once the industry steadies itself under the new guidelines, it will consolidate its lead.' Exports of Chinese smart cars equipped with assisted driving technology are also likely to see a brief slowdown as cautious overseas buyers wait to see the impact of new guidelines, said experts, though they expect the effect to be short-lived. 'What matters most is meeting the destination countries' requirements,' said Zhang. 'As long as those are met, sales won't be an issue.' Foreign importers may pause purchases of Chinese-made smart vehicles while they await clarity on the new guidelines, said Tu. But this hesitation would likely be temporary and ultimately, serve as a 'timely intervention'. 'If these guidelines give clarity, they'll help reassure regulators overseas and accelerate adoption,' Tu said.
