Are AI Browsers Putting Your Security at Risk?
The AI agents can be manipulated through sneaky prompt injections hidden in text, images, or websites.
Your web browser just got a brain, and a bit of an attitude. Last week, OpenAI and Microsoft introduced ChatGPT Atlas and a new “Copilot Mode” for Edge.
These souped-up browsers can answer your questions, summarize web pages, and even do things for you, like a digital intern who never sleeps.
The idea is a hands-free internet experience where your browser thinks so you don’t have to.
The problem? It might also overshare, misbehave, or get tricked into doing something very dumb, like giving hackers your credit card number.
The new wave of “agentic browsers” isn’t just about convenience. It’s a full-blown turf war over who controls the front door to the web.
Author's summary: AI browsers pose security risks.
