Leo sucks, just deleted brave because of it

Leo is useless and makes the browsing experience actively worse. The answers are worse than any other LLM available, tons of haluzinations, way to small context, forgets stuff you alreaddy ruled out at the beginning.
It add new shortcuts, which generally make typing fast more hazardous, because a single misclick can break my whole thought pattern.
These productivity issues make brave worse that selling my data to google

Thank you for the feedback.
Note that Leo is an option feature – you do not have to use it if you don’t want to. The feature can also be disabled entirely from the browser/system using Group Policy.

This may be due to the AI model being used when interacting with Leo: https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/26727364100493-What-are-the-differences-between-Leo-s-AI-Models

:light_bulb: some models are only available via Leo Premium

Not entirely clear what shortcuts you’re referring to here. If you can elaborate a bit on what shortcuts you’re referring to here that would be helpful.

At any rate, Brave offers a variety of features and protections that other browsers don’t (or don’t do as well) and is worth keeping around, even if you don’t leverage Leo AI.

Leo is extremely terrible. OK. But are you using a browser for “ai” or to browse the Internet? As a browser brave is f-ing great. Do you think I use wallet or vpn or other bells and whistles? Hell no :smiley:

Are they a browser to “block ads” or to browse the internet?

It’s a browser, Leo is optional to use, it’s just one feature. I find at least the premium models extremely useful but if it’s not helpful to you just disable it or don’t use it. Same goes for wallet (which I don’t use), rewards (which I don’t use anymore), the VPN (which I don’t use), and the adblocker (which I love).
