AI companies believe that agents can help monetize their advanced models and increase efficiency in businesses by handling tasks such as customer service and data analysis. For individuals, these agents promise to automate routine tasks, freeing up time for creative work. Ultimately, proponents aim to develop AI that acts as a true partner, not just a tool.
Key takeaways
- Jarvis is expected to run on a future iteration of Google’s Gemini AI, which is specifically designed to work in a web browser (optimized for Chrome);
- The tool aims to help users “automate routine, web-based activities” by interpreting screen content, taking screenshots, and performing actions such as clicking buttons or entering text;
- Major AI companies are pursuing similar technologies, with the goal of monetizing advanced and expensive AI models through practical, task-oriented agents.
