@cpetersen1970 What are you talking about, Aria doesn't have access to your search results.

@cpetersen1970 And If you don't want to use Aria, just disable it in settings.

@leocg Perhaps he means the AI prompts.

@whisperer Not even the AI prompts.

@leocg No idea, what you mean by that statement.
BTW, now that I mention AI prompts, Aria works here, AI-prompts in pop-up when text is selected is enabled, but I don't get them.

@leocg How does that relate to my suggestion that maybe cpetersen1970 was talking about the AI prompts when he said he didn't want search results that are formulated by an AI bot?

@whisperer AI prompts don't do searches.

@leocg I didn't say they do.
BTW, Aria often says it uses real-time info, and often says it uses an api for that. So Aria does a kind of search. Although Aria also often denies it is able to do that. Whether or not real-time info is also used in AI-prompts, I have no clue. As said, the AI prompts do not seem to work on my computer at the moment.

It would be very beneficial to have the option to choose our custom prompts from a personal list. I was highly impressed with the first beta version and recommended everyone around me to switch to Opera. However, since the official update, I no longer use the AI tool. I went from using it every day for a month to not using it at all. I reverted to ChatGPT instead. Here are my comments:

• When I select a large amount of text, the prompts are not displaying. In the beta version, I could shorten big text easily with the ChatGPT prompts suggestion, which was a game-changer for me, but this feature is now gone.
• Aria is very slow, and its answers are not accurate. Often, when I ask Aria to shorten a text, the response is as long as the original text, which defeats the purpose of using a summarization tool.
• Another inconvenience is the need to still use copy/paste for input, which removes the advantage of using the tool inside the browser. If I need to copy/paste It's much easier for me to use the ChatGPT website.

I hope these issues can be addressed in future updates as they were crucial for my positive experience with the beta version.

While Bard may not be exceptional, it certainly ranks higher in terms of quality compared to chatGPT and its iterations like Aria. Additionally, Bard provides instant answers without unnecessary delays, unlike Aria .

It turns out it's because I had turned off AI tools in Opera not long after Aria was introduced. Later this option was removed, so now my settings showed it enabled but the AI prompt didn't work because the option ai_tools was disabled in the preferences file. Once I changed the preferences file by hand, the AI prompts appeared.

Is it normal that AI prompts are blocked by Opera in Private mode?

I have noticed that for some time now, Aria's answers are not automatically scrolled into view. I have to scroll down manually. It would be great if this issue could be addressed.

I really can't stand how it answers one word at a time. I realize it's trying to simulate a human reply, but it is not fooling anyone. If I wanted to ask my question to a human, I would have done that. I come to an AI to sift data and give me an answer - it shouldn't try to look like a human typing ie one word at a time.

Aria could do with customisation settings.

• First would be reply speed, waiting on Aria to find the button on the typewriter is frustrating
• The number of points in a conversation to evaluate, apparently Aria only responds based on the current and two previous questions not the whole chat. Obviously there are speed considerations here.
• Font type and size as well as background
• The option for Aria to interact with other settings within the browser

Re: General Aria Feedback Topic

It would be nice to have a search function for your chat history. Also the possibily to increase text size would be very nice!
Maybe it is better to make Aria in its own tab like other websites. Then these functions are already there

I agree.

Is it possible to read aloud the aria answers? according to aria is sould be possible be the provided answers did not help me.
The scrolling word for word test reply is rather hard to read.

after spending some time with aria I don't get what this ai fuss is all about. This is just cause a lot of frustration and costing me more time that i like. It will take a long time before this gets somewhat useful.

@uberprutser I believe there is no direct option available at present. There are options using extensions for text -> voice but for Aria I believe this involves a copy/paste so not very helpful.
