– Brave brings AI assistant Leo to iPhone and iPad users
– Voice-to-text capability added in iOS version of Leo
– Leo can summarize pages, answer questions, generate reports, translate pages, and more
Brave has introduced its AI assistant, Leo, to iPhone and iPad users, following its launch on Android and desktop. This AI assistant can answer questions, summarize pages, create content, and more. The iOS version of Leo includes voice-to-text capability, allowing users to speak their queries instead of typing them out.
Leo can also generate written reports, translate pages, create transcriptions of audio or video content, and write code. By providing access to Leo, Brave hopes users will choose their AI assistant over other similar services. Leo includes access to Mixtral 8x7B, Anthropic’s Claude Instant, and Meta’s Llama 2 13B, with Mixtral 8x7B set as the default LLM.
Brave is not the only browser company to launch an AI assistant, as Opera introduced Aria last year. Aria, developed in collaboration with OpenAI, offers a chatbot-like interface for users to ask questions and receive instant responses. Brave Leo for iOS is now available to all iOS users who have updated to version 1.63, and can be accessed by typing in the browser’s address bar and selecting “Ask Leo.” Leo is an optional feature and can be disabled in the app’s settings.
