跟读练习: OpenAI’s new browser feels familiar… - 通过视频学习英语口语

Yesterday, OpenAI stepped into the web browser Thunderdome with the release of Atlas, their new AI-powered browser built around ChatGPT.
2
And although I had anniversary plans, I imagine this is just how John Muir felt when he said, The comments are calling and I must go.
3
The idea for Atlas is pretty simple.
4
Fork Chromium and Vibe add ChatGPT into it as an assistant that can see, remember, and help with anything you need.
5
Like, imagine you wanted to eat food.
6
To do that, you'd usually have to go to the DoorDash app
7
and go through the work of ordering it yourself like a prehistoric hunter-gatherer.
8
But now with Atlas, you can just tell it exactly what you want to eat, and it'll do the work for you.
9
Augustus Gloop himself couldn't have designed a better experience.
10
Of course, Atlas is only available on Mac, but thankfully, my neighbor is an unemployed JavaScript developer, so I was able to borrow his to check it out.
11
It is October 22nd, 2025, and you're watching The Code Report.
12
As a believer of the free and open web, there's nothing I'd enjoy more than to hear
13
that OpenAI pushed Codex to its limits and built a new engine and browser from scratch.
14
But like almost all new browsers lately, Atlas is just a fork of Chromium, Google's free and open source web browser.
15
According to the keynote, OpenAI didn't want it to just feel like Chrome with ChatGPT bolted on.
16
And after playing with it for a little bit, I can confidently say that's exactly how it feels.
17
Sam Altman even told me they completely reinvented the way a browser is used.
18
But I think the reality is that they mostly just copied Perplexity Comet.
19
Despite that, there are still some cool parts to it.
20
Because it can see everything you do, it's able to use your browsing history as context when you ask it questions.
21
Now, I know that sounds like a horrible violation of your privacy, but you are able to control what it remembers and delete certain memories if you need to.
22
And as you saw earlier with the DoorDash order, agent mode lets ChatGPT take actions on your behalf.
23
It does feel a bit like watching a disabled pirate try to use a mouse for the first time, but as I told my wife on our honeymoon, the experience improves with practice.
24
But of course, agentic-powered browsers don't have the best track record when it comes to privacy or security.
25
Earlier this year, a team at Brave was able to successfully orchestrate a prompt injection in Perplexity's Comet AI browser,
26
by embedding malicious instructions inside of an image that would get triggered
27
when a screenshot was taken of it and analyzed by the model.
28
And that same team discovered that Fellow, which coins itself as the world's first agentic browser,
29
was also vulnerable to a prompt injection simply by instructing the model to visit a website with the malicious instructions.
30
Because your browser usually contains highly sensitive cookies and data, the team at Brave's ultimate takeaway was that indirect prompt injection is not an isolated issue,
31
but a systemic challenge facing the entire category of AI-powered browsers.
32
It was Benjamin Franklin who famously said, those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
33
But old Benjamin Unbutton was always down for a good time, and I'm pretty sure even he'd be tempted to trade in his entire digital privacy
34
and security for an easier way to order Taco Bell, like the new Flamin' Hot Colon Prolapser Grilled Cheese Burrito, available for a limited time at participating US Taco Bell locations.
35
But if you want to avoid this temptation altogether, another browser that's being worked on is Ladybird.
36
Unlike the others, it's fully independent
37
and recreating both the engine and browser from scratch without using code from any other existing browser.
38
It's an incredibly ambitious project, but they just recently passed the 90% threshold on web platform tests, which makes them eligible to be an alternative browser engine on iOS.
39
But though Lady Bird doesn't have any AI aspirations, every developer and company out there is trying to build the next big AI product.
40
But the hard truth is that your LLM is basically worthless without a good search engine, which is why you need to check out Melee Search, the sponsor of today's video.
41
It's a restful search API that understands user intent and returns relevant results in milliseconds.
42
That means your app's AI features actually feel intelligent, instead of the typical vague AI slot.
43
The search is hybrid, semantic, and multimodal, which allows it to pull rich context from any data type and it has over 53,000 GitHub stars,
44
with developers appreciating how you can drop it into any tech stack, then instantly scale up to millions of searches.

This has been The Code Report, thanks for watching, and I will see you in the next one.

你能学到什么

这段视频能帮你提升两项实用口语技能:一是在日常对话中自然融入幽默表达,比如用夸张的比喻(如“像史前狩猎采集者一样自己点餐”)增强语言感染力;二是如何清晰传达复杂信息,比如解释AI浏览器的工作原理时,通过具体例子(如自动点外卖)让听众快速理解。这些技能对雅思口语练习尤其有帮助,能让你的回答更生动、更有逻辑。

注意这些发音现象

视频中存在不少连读和弱读现象,比如“fork Chromium”连读为/fɔːkˈkrəʊmiəm/,“built around”弱读为/bɪltəˈraʊnd/。此外,“agent mode”中的“t”发成浊化音/d/,听起来更自然。这些发音细节能让你的口语更接近母语者水平,建议通过shadowspeak练习反复模仿。

像母语者一样说话

模仿视频中的节奏和重音是关键。比如在说“the experience improves with practice”时,要重读“improves”和“practice”,突出语义重点;而在讲笑话时(如“Flamin' Hot Colon Prolapser Grilled Cheese Burrito”),则要放慢语速,加重关键词的发音,制造幽默效果。平时可以使用shadowing site进行训练,结合视频内容逐句跟读,逐渐掌握母语者的说话习惯。

提升英语发音没有捷径,但通过针对性的练习,比如每天坚持shadowspeaks 15分钟,再结合对视频中语言现象的分析,你的口语水平一定会稳步提高。记住,即使是复杂的AI浏览器话题,也能通过简单生动的表达让听众印象深刻。

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构,并附上视频中的原话:

结构视频中的用法
被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么,而不是谁做的was taken · be tempted · being worked
定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物those who would · tests, which makes · engine, which is

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
