OSLO,
Norway, July 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Opera GX, the
browser for gamers, is bringing a significant update to the
browser's built-in AI, Aria. This update provides users with the
latest AI features that Opera [NASDAQ: OPRA] has been releasing as
part of their experimental AI Feature Drops program in the
Developer stream of the Opera One browser. The features that are
arriving to Opera GX increase Aria's capabilities by introducing
image generation and understanding, voice output, a chat summary
option, and links to sources.
Image Generation and Voice Output
Images are crucial to today's web, so this Opera GX update
places a strong focus on the visual. With this update, Aria is
gaining the ability to turn text prompts and descriptions into
unique images using the image generation model Imagen2 by Google.
Aria identifies the user's intention to generate an image based on
conversational prompts. They can also use the "regenerate" option
to have Aria come up with a new image. Aria allows them to generate
30 images per day per user.
With this patch Aria is also gaining the ability to read answers
out loud by using Google's WaveNet model. It benefits those
who normally use screen readers, like to multitask, or need to hear
information instead of reading it.
Image Understanding
Internet users find themselves searching for information about
something they saw just as often as for something they read or
heard about. That's why Aria is also gaining image understanding
capabilities. This means that users can now upload an image to Aria
that they can then ask the AI tool about as part of the chat
conversation. For example, if the image is an unknown headset, it
will identify its brand and model as well as provide some context
about it. Or a user can take a picture of a math problem and ask
Aria how to solve it.
Improvements to the Chat
In this update, the text-based chat experience with Aria has
also been improved thanks to two new functionalities: "Chat
Summary'' and "Links to Sources." The former provides users with a
concise summary of an entire conversation with Aria, allowing them
to recap the most important information. In the latter feature,
Aria supplies the user with links to sources about the topic of the
conversation, enabling them to get more context regarding their
inquiry. Opera GX also has received reworked Aria Command Line
which users can now easily activate by pressing the "ctrl + /" or
"cmd + /" button combination. This enables the user to open the
additional floating window instead of using Aria from the extension
page.
With these new features, Opera GX is giving Aria a significant
buff and providing the gaming community with an up-to-date AI
assistant that is now more accessible and capable than before.
The Aria update is available now for every Opera GX
user.
