Opera’s built-in AI feature, Aria, has been given a new ability that allows it to summarize text-based website content on the Android platform. This innovative function enables users to grasp the essence of large amounts of content quickly, such as articles, blogs, and even scientific reports. This makes Aria a highly useful tool for students, professionals, and anyone in need of efficient content digestion.
Opera’s objective with this advancement is to simplify the process of reading web content. Key phrases and sections in the text are highlighted by Aria, making critical information easier to spot. The time-consuming task of trawling through dense websites will be made simpler with this feature.
To take advantage of this feature, users will need to open a text-rich website on their Opera Android browser.
Enhanced summarizing feature in Aria on Android
Clicking on the three-dot menu in the top right corner and selecting ‘Summarize’ next to the Aria icon will then generate a summary of the page’s content. Users will need to keep their Opera for Android updated and must be logged into an existing Opera account to use this feature.
Aria, which operates like other AI web assistants, has been around since last year. The AI assistant is capable of understanding and processing user requests and can even comprehend voice commands, providing accurate responses. Aria’s sophisticated technology offers users the information they need directly without requiring them to perform web searches.
Opera has continuously expanded Aria’s functionalities since its launch with the AI Feature Drops program. This initiative allows users early access to various AI features, providing invaluable feedback to Opera for refining these features, while giving users the chance to experience advanced AI technology firsthand.
In recent developments, Aria is now capable of generating images through Google’s Imagen 2 and providing text-based verbal responses. This latest innovation further enhances Aria’s interactivity, providing a more immersive user experience, and demonstrating Opera’s ongoing commitment to enhancing browser technology through AI advancements.
