Google is reportedly working on a new generative AI tool, codenamed Project Jarvis, designed to operate within a web browser and automate routine tasks for users.
According to a report from The Information, this "computer-using agent" aims to simplify everyday interactions by handling web-based activities directly through a browser interface.
This latest innovation underlines Google’s push to expand AI-powered productivity tools, potentially giving users a more intuitive, automated browsing experience.
It seems, according to reports, that Google may be getting ready to preview 'Project Jarvis' as early as December. Sources have reported that Jarvis would respond to a person's commands by capturing screenshots of what is on their screen, interpreting the shots before taking actions like clicking on a button or typing into a text field.
Reportedly, Jarvis would work only with web browsers, and more specifically, with Google Chrome. The AI agent may be able to assist with common tasks such as research, shopping, and booking flights.
This news comes right as Google is expanding the capabilities of its AI assistant, Gemini AI. The next-gen model of Gemini is expected to be revealed in December as well.
Earlier this month, Gemini Live, which is Google's AI chatbot, gained support for dozens of new languages. There are also integrations of Gemini with other Google services and apps such as Google Meet, Photos, and Gmail.
