Gartner Tells Businesses to Block AI Browsers Now – December 2025

Author/Source: David L. White See the full link here

Takeaway

This article explains why a research company called Gartner is telling businesses to stop employees from using certain new internet browsers on work computers. These new browsers use artificial intelligence and might accidentally send private company information to other companies.


Technical Subject Understandability

Beginner


Analogy/Comparison

Imagine a new assistant at work who, without meaning to, copies and sends your secret company plans to people outside the office. That’s a bit like what these AI browsers could do with your company’s private information.


Why It Matters

This topic is important because businesses could accidentally share their secret information, which might cause big problems. For example, if an employee uses an AI browser to summarize a confidential meeting, that information could be sent to an outside company, putting the business’s secrets at risk.


Related Terms

AI browsers, data leakage, third-party AI services, compliance risks. Jargon Conversion: AI browsers are web browsers that have artificial intelligence features built into them. Data leakage is when private information accidentally gets shared outside of a company without permission. Third-party AI services are computer programs that use artificial intelligence and are owned by a different company. Compliance risks are the dangers of not following rules or laws about how data is used.
