HOW TO AI

💻 How to Turn Your Browser Into a Full Cloud Operating System

In this tutorial, you will learn how to turn your browser into a fully functional AI workstation using BrowserOS, unlocking multi-window workflows, real-time file management, and app-level productivity directly from a single tab.

🧰 Who is This For

• Users who want private, offline AI automation

• Developers testing local LLM workflows

• Privacy-focused professionals avoiding cloud AI

• Anyone curious about running an AI-powered browser locally

STEP 1: Download and Install BrowserOS

Go to BrowserOS or the GitHub releases page and download the installer for your operating system. Run the installation file and launch BrowserOS.

Since the project is new, your operating system may warn you that the app is unverified. On Windows, click “More Info” and then “Run Anyway.” On macOS, right-click the app and choose “Open.”

STEP 2: Prepare Your Local AI Model

BrowserOS needs a local model running on your machine. You can use Ollama if you prefer speed or LM Studio if you prefer a simple interface.

Install either one, then download a model such as Llama 3. If you use Ollama, open your terminal and type “ollama pull llama3” and keep Ollama running in the background on localhost:11434. If you use LM Studio, download a model inside the app, open the Local Server tab, and click “Start Server.” Keep note of the server port, usually 1234.

STEP 3: Connect BrowserOS to Your Local Model

Open BrowserOS and type chrome://settings/browseros into the address bar. In the settings panel, look for the AI or LLM Provider section. Choose Ollama or LM Studio from the provider dropdown. Enter the correct local URL. Ollama uses http://localhost:11434. LM Studio uses http://localhost:1234/v1 unless your server tab shows a different address. If the browser asks for a model name, enter the exact model identifier you downloaded, such as llama3. Save your settings and wait for the Connected indicator to appear.

STEP 4: Run Your First Private Agent

Open a new tab or click the Agent icon inside BrowserOS. Type a full natural-language command into the agent chat.

For example: “Go to Amazon and order synsodine toothpaste”

The browser will begin acting on the page, clicking and typing automatically. All reasoning happens on your machine, so it’s normal if your fans start running louder as the local model processes the instructions.

🤖 Musk Predicts an Optional-Work Future

At the U.S.–Saudi Investment Forum, Musk said that in the next 10–20 years, automation will create a post-scarcity world where jobs feel more like hobbies than necessities.

• Musk claims AI + robots will handle most labor, making work optional—like gardening for fun

• He believes money could become irrelevant as automation produces unlimited goods and services

• Economists agree full automation is coming but say Musk’s 10–20 year timeline is unrealistic

• High robotics costs, slow adoption, and political hurdles make a job-free society far more complex

Musk’s vision challenges the foundations of today’s economy. If automation truly makes work optional, society will need new economic systems, new support structures, and a new definition of meaning in people’s lives.

🏗️ Brookfield Unveils $100B AI Infrastructure Program

Brookfield Asset Management has launched a massive $100 billion AI infrastructure initiative in partnership with NVIDIA and the Kuwait Investment Authority, aiming to accelerate the global build-out of data centers, compute, land, and clean energy needed to power AI.

• Program anchored by a new $10B AI Infrastructure Fund, already half-committed

• Backed by Brookfield, NVIDIA, and KIA to acquire energy, land, data centers, and compute capacity

• Part of a projected $7 trillion AI infrastructure build-out needed over the next decade

• Early projects include 1 GW behind-the-meter power with Bloom Energy and national AI infrastructure partnerships in France and Sweden

This marks one of the largest AI infrastructure pushes in history. As demand for compute surges, Brookfield and NVIDIA are positioning themselves at the center of the global race to build the physical backbone of the AI era.
