GOOGLE IS BUILDING AN EXPERIMENTAL NEW BROWSER AND A NEW KIND OF WEB APP

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Google's Disco is a new AI-powered browser that uses Gemini to turn searches into “GenTabs”—interactive, task-specific mini apps built from both AI suggestions and the web pages users open themselves. Launched in Google Labs, Disco explores a more collaborative, web-forward model where browsing, research, and on-the-fly app creation merge. Google is still unsure whether GenTabs should be temporary, shareable, or evolve into a broader product.
