Opera introduces a new web standard to let users deploy AI locally in their browser

Browser maker Opera introduced WebAI, a new web standard enabling users to run open-weight AI models locally within its browsers. The feature, currently in early preview on Opera One, supports models like Google’s Gemma and Apple’s on-device foundation model. It allows text generation and content classification without cloud reliance, keeping data on the user's device while eliminating subscription costs.
