Kernel browsers ship in headful mode by default. In headful mode, the launched browser has a corresponding GUI. This enables features like live view and replays. Headless mode runs without a visual interface. They generally run faster and have a lighter footprint (1 GB rather than headful’s 8 GB), resulting in significant cost savings. This is useful for short-lived or highly concurrent browser automations. Some bot detectors may detect headless mode. To launch a Kernel browser in headless mode, set its config: 
const kernelBrowser = await kernel.browsers.create({
    headless: true
});
Live View and Replays are not available in headless mode.
