Brave Unveils Leo: A Desktop AI Assistant with a Privacy Twist

Brave, the alternative web browser, has rolled out its AI-powered assistant, Leo, for all desktop users. Leo, capable of context-aware requests such as summarizing web pages or translating text, aims to enhance user experience. For a premium, users can access Leo Premium at $15 per month, offering faster and better large language models. Unique to Brave, all interactions with Leo are routed through an anonymous server, ensuring user privacy. This move comes amidst a growing trend of browsers integrating AI assistants, marking Brave's stride towards revenue generation while maintaining user privacy.
