An open letter calling for a six-month pause on “giant AI experiments” like GPT-4 got signed by 1,000+ founders and researchers, including Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak, and Stability AI CEO Emad Mostaque. 

The big question: is this genuine concern about the dangers of AI or a way to slow down the competition? Join the conversation.

Something exciting is launching, and it’s not AI-related. 

Arc, the alternative browser from the Browser Company, is releasing its iOS version today. If you don’t know what we’re talking about, here’s a refresher. Self-proclaiming as the “browser that is going to kill Chrome,” Arc lets you customize your browsing experience and focuses on improving concentration and removing clutter from traditional browsers. 

A big part of its appeal is the ability to navigate using shortcuts. The command palette lets you create new tabs and access websites and extensions. Everything is stored in a sidebar that can be tucked away so you don’t have to get overwhelmed by your 47 unnecessarily open tabs.

The launch of Arc for iOS has been highly anticipated, with Arc’s makers sharing fun real-time updates through their TikTok “journal” account. While it will still be a while until the app propagates to all regions and devices, some users have started sharing their thoughts already. The app will let you customize your theme and icon and switch between spaces you’re creating (like “News” or “Work”) to get to links you’ve bookmarked. 

The Browser Company is not the first (or last) to want to revolutionize how we browse the interwebs. SigmaOS and Sidekick are two strong alternatives. Here’s what the community has to say about them. 

• Spline AI lets you design 3D objects/scenes, animate, add physics, brainstorm ideas, and change colors and materials using written prompts. 

• Vizzly helps your users answer their queries by building their own tables, charts, and dashboards using datasets you choose to make available.

• Fregg brings back the nostalgia of Tamagotchi using NFTs.
