Brave Launches New AI-Powered Search Feature, Enhancing Privacy and Accuracy

Brave's latest 'Answer with AI' tool leverages its own search index, focusing on privacy and refined search capabilities without user profiling.

Brave introduces 'Answer with AI', a new search engine feature that synthesizes information from its independent index, prioritizing user privacy.
The AI tool uses retrieval augmented generation (RAG) to improve the relevance and accuracy of search results, already serving millions of queries.
Unlike competitors, Brave's AI search does not profile users or retain queries, ensuring that ads and results remain unbiased and privacy-focused.
The search engine, which handles over 10 billion queries yearly, now integrates AI to provide real-time answers and summaries directly in search results.
Brave plans to further integrate AI search within its browser, enhancing user interaction with AI-generated content without compromising privacy.
