Google Accidentally Leaks Jarvis AI Agent That Browses The Internet For You

The following report is by TechRadar:

According to The Information, Google posted an internal preview of the product, codenamed Jarvis, on the Chrome extension store but was quick to remove the prototype before too many users noticed.

The listing read “a helpful companion that surfs the web with you.” which lines up with the news from October that Google was developing Jarvis, the AI agent that would help you shop online and even be able to book your next vacation.

Those who managed to download the Jarvis AI prototype before it was pulled from Chrome’s extension store were unable to use it as the program required specific access permissions.

With The Information reporting Google plans to officially unveil Jarvis in December, this leak confirms that we won’t have long to wait.

Jarvis AI is expected to allow users to automate web browsing tasks from within Google Chrome so they can focus on more important things while the AI agent shops or even books flights for you.

For example, think of how great this could be for mundane Christmas shopping – after all, nothing says ‘I love you’ more than a gift purchased by AI.

AI agents, which are systems that can complete tasks without your supervision, are starting to pop up increasingly with companies like Anthropic releasing a product similar to Jarvis last month. It’s also reported that OpenAI could be working on an agent too, although we’re yet to see how that would differ from Google’s upcoming product.

AI development is booming with companies releasing new tools almost daily. Just last week ChatGPT Search became available to Plus subscribers ushering in a new era for AI search engines. With Jarvis AI, however, we might not even need to do the searching ourselves.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

In July, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said digital agents were on the way and would begin to flood the workplace, taking over menial tasks to push productivity even faster.

One of the things that we’re announcing here this week is the concept of digital agents, digital AIs that will augment every single job in the company.

And so one of the most important use cases that people are discovering is customer service. In the future, my guess is that it’s going to be human still, but AI in the loop.

Huang said.

As always, money is at the root of this. Companies cannot exact wealth fast enough as they are now, AI has come to accelerate this process even further – and will eventually replace most conventional white collar work soon enough. And this will of course make people even lazier as the AI does a lot of the thinking for them.

1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
