ZDNET的关键外卖
- Opera正在发布一个重要的AI功能。
- 本地AI现在被安装在网页浏览器上
- 不需要配置或安装类似Ollama的东西。
歌剧刚刚做出了大胆的选择：由于新提出的WebAI网络标准，公司很快会用浏览器运送本地AI模型。 Opera的AI确保您的询问和/或数据保留在您的机器上。
另外：歌剧院的新空气浏览器如何帮助我保持冷静和冲浪
Opera认为，由于这个新功能使用开放量的AI模型，任何人都可以在这些模型之上建设，而无需运行昂贵的AI基础设施或支付每个请求的费用。 这相当于歌剧浏览器的更多创新。

这比你想的要大
大多数浏览器包括依赖云来回复的AI；用户的数据不仅限于本地机器，可以被第三方组织用来训练LLMs甚至建立剖面图。
歌剧公司的目标是通过向当地AI倾斜来抵制这一趋势，因为开放量级模型已经变得越来越小，能力也越来越强，而硬件则继续变得更加强大。
许多人从AI那里想要很多东西，您的笔记本电脑已经可以了，无需向任何地方发送数据，“我们于2024年首次向开发商运送当地模型。 现在，我们带给大家。 更多模型和工具即将出现
网络AI是什么？
WebAI是新提出的网络标准(由Google和Microsoft等公司支持)，允许网站和扩展使用浏览器托管的AI. Opera的WebAI的应用是模型不可知的，并围绕开放量级模型构建，因此用户可以从类似Google和Apple的模型中选择。
另外：Opera 现在检测并屏蔽恶意剪贴板内容
WebAI 也是选入；在用户未下载之前，任何内容都不下载。 开发者可以从WebAI中检查使用WebUI的扩展示例：网络的本地AI，现在在Opera中。
歌剧和地方AI的长期粉丝
一直以来我都是歌剧浏览器的粉丝
我看过歌剧院的特色，Opera是最早将AI整合到UI的浏览器之一，使得它非常容易(和免费)使用。 我使用AI的时间越长，一个特定的问题就越成为我的呼叫卡——本地AI.
我是本地AI的冠军
目前的问题是，使用本地AI浏览器并不总是容易。 Firefox让智能窗口成为可能，(您必须选择一个自定义提供者，并在您的机器上安装和运行 Ollama ).
还：Firefox是浏览器，如果使用AI的话，现在可以击败它
歌剧准备让这个现实变得更加容易。
要尝试本地第一版的歌剧院，请做如下：
- 下载或更新 Opera One
- 转到设置 > Opera AI 并打开 Election Web AI API。
- 安装扩展并打开您的扩展菜单。
根据Opera,WebAI是一个早期预览，可以在Windows PC(64位，Intel/AMD)和带有Apple硅的Macs上获得。 以Intel为主的Macs、Linux或Windows在Arm上都不可用。

ZDNET’s key takeaways
- Opera is releasing an important AI feature.
- Local AI is now getting built right into the web browser.
- There’ll be no need to configure or install the likes of Ollama.
Opera just made a bold choice: Thanks to the newly proposed WebAI web standard, the company will soon be shipping local AI models with its browser. By doing so, Opera’s AI ensures that your queries and/or data remain on your machine.

According to Opera, because this new feature uses open-weight AI models, anyone can build on top of those models without running expensive AI infrastructure or paying for every request. That equates to more innovation for the Opera browser.
More from ZDNET
This is a bigger deal than you might think.
Most browsers include AI that depends on the cloud for responses; a user’s data is not limited to the local machine and could be used by third-party organizations to train LLMs or even build profiles.
Opera aims to resist that trend by leaning into local AI, made possible by open-weight models that have become smaller and more capable, while hardware continues to become more powerful.
“A lot of what people want from AI doesn’t need a data center. Your laptop can already do it, without sending your data anywhere,” said Krystian Kolondra, EVP Browsers and AI at Opera. “We first shipped local models to developers in 2024. Now we’re bringing them to everyone. More models and tools are coming, and you’ll always decide what runs on your machine.”
What is WebAI?
WebAI is a newly proposed web standard (backed by companies like Google and Microsoft) that allows websites and extensions to use browser-hosted AI. Opera’s implementation of WebAI is model-agnostic and built around open-weight models, so users can select models from the likes of Google and Apple.

WebAI is also opt-in; nothing is downloaded until the user does so. Developers can check out example extensions that use WebUI from WebAI: Local AI for the web, now in Opera.
Long-time fan of Opera and local AI
I’ve been a fan of the Opera browser for a long time — it has served as my default for the past five years on Linux, MacOS, and Android.
I’ve seen Opera features come and go, but the good ones always stick around. Opera was one of the first browsers to integrate AI into the UI, making it very easy (and free) to use. The longer I use AI, the more one particular issue has become my calling card — local AI.
I’m a champion of local AI, and that’s the hill I will die on.
The problem thus far is that using local AI with browsers isn’t always easy. Firefox made it possible with Smart Window, but it’s not set up to use local AI by default. (You have to choose a custom provider and have Ollama installed and running on your machine.)
Also: Firefox is the browser to beat right now if you use AI
Opera is ready to make this reality even easier.
To try the local-first version of Opera, do the following:
- Download or update Opera One
- Go to Settings > Opera AI and turn on Enable Web AI API.
- Install an extension and open it from your extensions menu.
According to Opera, WebAI is an early preview, available on Windows PC (64-bit, Intel/AMD) and Macs with Apple silicon. It isn’t available on Intel-based Macs, Linux or Windows on Arm.
