It doesn’t sound quite like the problem I was having with Plex Player crashing on OS14.5 which was also associated with Safari and Chrome crashing. My problem was solved on the Apple Discussion forum by deleting the file listed below. No need to logout or restart.

Slightly easier fix:

I had essentially the same problem. Web pages making every browser crash.

System settings crashing on Accessibility-> Spoken Content and Live Speech

I went into preferences and found that the only recently changed pref was:

com.apple.SpeakSelection.plist

So I deleted that and System Settings Accessibility-> Spoken Content and Live Speech immediately began to work again and web pages began to display without crashing.
