5 Reasons Operas Aria AI Is Useful

Many people are not into AI because they want to read raw data and analyze it themselves. However, try Opera's Aria AI when you are stuck with some tedious task and need ideas. Here's why Opera's Aria AI is useful!

Free and convenient

Opera may not be the most popular web browser, but it's still a pretty good option that regularly adds new features. It's based on Chromium, so most Google Chrome extensions also work with Opera. But unlike Google Chrome, which doesn't offer one-click access to Gemini AI, Opera's Aria AI is right in the sidebar.

If you need to ask a question or instruct the AI ​​to do something for you, you don't need to visit a specific website or open a separate app. Instead, you can start it with just one click, even if you're working on another website. Alternatively, you can press Ctrl + Shift + 7 to bring up the Aria AI window in Opera.

But the biggest reason people choose Aria AI over ChatGPT is because it’s free. While GPT-4 is free, it still holds back some features for ChatGPT Plus users . Some may argue that ChatGPT Plus has more features than the free AI service, but there are also people who don’t need that much functionality, making the $20 subscription cost too expensive.

Aria AI can provide ideas without having to go through Google

One advantage of Aria AI (and AI LLM in general) is that it can help you come up with ideas without having to manually go through many results on Google. For example, if you need to plan a trip, instead of going through many search results and manually planning an itinerary, just ask Aria to create an itinerary for you. From there, you can get an idea of ​​the places you want to go and edit Aria's results. Furthermore, if you are not satisfied with Aria AI's ideas, you can ask it to edit the results until you are satisfied. After receiving all the information from Aria AI, you can check its sources, confirm that they are accurate and up to date.

Aria AI can make understanding complex concepts easier

Another feature of Aria AI that I appreciate is how it can make complex concepts easier to understand. For example, when I Googled the phrase “What is a Faradaic reaction?”, the results I got were not very helpful. The first answer led to a PDF discussing the difference between Faradaic and non-Faradaic electrodes, while the remaining answers discussed electric currents and Faradaic processes. While these informational sentences might lead to the required answer, they would take a long time to review and process.

So instead of trying to understand all of this, ask Aria AI to explain Faradaic reactions. Here is Aria's response:

Sure! Imagine you have a rechargeable battery like the one in your phone. Inside this battery, there are chemical reactions happening when you charge or discharge it.

A Faradaic reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves the transfer of electrons between the battery's electrodes and the ions in the electrolyte solution. This process is essential for the battery to store and release electrical energy efficiently.

In simpler terms, during a Faradaic reaction, electrons move back and forth between the positive and negative sides of the battery, allowing it to generate electricity. It's like a dance of electrons that powers your devices and keeps them running.

Translation : Absolutely! Imagine you have a rechargeable battery like the one in your phone. Inside this battery, there are chemical reactions that occur when the battery is charged or discharged.

The Faradaic reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves the transfer of electrons between the battery's electrodes and the ions in the electrolyte solution. This process is essential for the battery to store and release electrical energy efficiently.

In simpler terms, in the Faradaic reaction, electrons move back and forth between the positive and negative terminals of the battery, allowing the battery to generate electricity. The electrons power your devices and help them work.

As you can see, Aria AI’s explanation is much clearer and easier to understand. It also includes several links to keywords in its answer, and when prompted to provide a source for its answer, Aria AI provided several verifiable links to ensure the validity of Aria’s explanation.

Aria AI Makes Online Search More Natural

Google is a pretty powerful search engine, especially if you know how to use Google's search operators and widgets. However, the average user may not be familiar with these commands, making it more difficult to find specific information.

Aria AI still can't replace Google and the search operators you can use with it, but it does make finding some specific information a lot easier. For example, when you ask Google, "How old was Joe Biden when he was elected president?" and its answer is:

The average age of US presidents at inauguration is 55. The youngest person to become US president was Theodore Roosevelt, who took office at age 42 after the assassination of William McKinley. The oldest person to take office was Joe Biden, at age 78.

While it provides the necessary information, it is too long and includes a lot of unnecessary information. When asked the Aria AI the same question, it replied:

Joe Biden was elected president at the age of 77. He was born on November 20, 1942 and won the 2020 US presidential election.

It also adds links to the answers it gives, which helps confirm the information it gives is accurate. However, it is worth noting how the question is worded and how both give answers.

Aria AI makes users' lives a little easier by giving direct answers to questions, generating ideas, and providing sources when asked. So Opera's Aria AI is very useful, and it's nice that it's embedded directly into the Opera browser, making it much more convenient to use.
