According to a report from The Information, Google is developing an AI tool that can manage web browsers to make boring tasks easier, like filling out forms or reserving flights.
Project Jarvis Unveiled
This AI agent, known as Project Jarvis, is set to launch alongside the upcoming Gemini AI model, which might be released in December of this year. The name "Jarvis" stands for "Just Another Very Intelligent System," inspired by a fictional AI helper in the Marvel films who assists Tony Stark.
Features of the AI Agent
Google plans to restrict the agent’s functionality to browsers like Chrome. It will assist users with activities such as booking cinema tickets or buying goods online. People will have the ability to interact with the agent directly and give commands for various tasks.
If this sounds a bit like something you've heard before, it's because it bears a resemblance to Anthropic's recent Claude 3.5 Sonnet, which enables app developers to "guide Claude to operate computers like humans do". OpenAI is also believed to be creating similar solutions.
