The Opera GX gaming browser — which is among thebest browsersaround — has been updated with the brand’s proprietary AI writing assistant called Aria. It allows you to execute tasks such as asking questions, writing code, sprucing up communication, and learning how to navigate the ever-changing web landscape.
The tool is currently available to Opera GX Early Bird users. Gamers can use Aria to learn more about the latest gaming news and to easily find gaming tips with AI prompts. According to the press release, these could be based around news, such as “HasStarfieldfinally launched yet?,” as well as tips, such as “How to beat the Juggernaut inArmored Core 6?”
“Aria is based on Opera’s own Composer AI engine and connects to OpenAI’s GPT. Aria is enhanced by additional capabilities such as adding live results from the web, and is accessible directly from Opera GX for free,” Opera product director Maciej Kocemba told Digital Trends.
Tools likeChatGPTcan answer basic questions, but it’s the proprietary nature of Aria that stands out. According to Opera, that allows the AI to access up-to-date information, enabling it to quickly summarize updates in games likeDiablo IV,and provide tips in brand new releases likeStarfield.
Another new AI feature added to Opera GX allows you to use hotkeys to interact with Aria. You can inputCtrl+ /on Windows andCmd+ /on Mac to trigger the tool and begin to type in a prompt.
Aria is now available in over 180 countries including on the Opera GX browser for Windows and MacOS and on the Opera One browser for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS.
TheOpera GX browser, which initially launched in 2019, is also designed with many of the top gaming-associated apps and programs easily accessible, including Twitch, Discord, Reddit, and YouTube, among others.
“It’s now being used by more than 23 million monthly active users. GX has a very loyal and active community of gamers using it. We hope they will find Aria useful for their gaming needs and beyond,” Kocemba said.
With several tech companies inundating their browsers with AI-powered features, the brand also introduced a redesignedOpera Oneas its flagship browser in late April. The browser includes ChatGPT and ChatSonic login shortcuts, in addition to the beta integration of Opera’s own AI features. This would be announced as Aria in late May.
Aria is also connected to Opera’s AI Prompts browser feature, which allows you to highlight text within the browser and turn this into a prompt to gather contextual information.
