00:00Google's new Gemini AI can actually use the web like you do.

00:05Google's newest AI makes your browser feel a little haunted, in a good way.

00:09Google unveiled Gemini 2.5 Computer Use, a model that uses visual understanding and reasoning

00:15to operate a web browser like a person.

00:18Instead of relying on application programming interfaces or hidden shortcuts, it clicks

00:22buttons, fills out forms, and drags stuff around, all by looking at what's on screen.

00:28Ask it to fill out a form and it will find the right boxes and type in your info like

00:32a human.

00:33Google says it's handy for UI testing or for websites that don't offer direct access through

00:39an application programming interfaces.

00:42This agentic AI race is heating up.

00:45Just yesterday, OpenAI showed new ChatGPT apps and its upcoming ChatGPT agent, and Anthropic

00:51rolled out Computer Use for Claude AI last year.

00:54Google says its model outperforms leading alternatives on web and mobile benchmarks.

01:00The demos are sped up three times, so take that with a grain of algorithmic salt.

01:04Unlike OpenAI's approach, Gemini 2.5 doesn't yet control your whole computer.

01:10It's limited to a browser sandbox for now, supporting 13 actions like typing, scrolling,

01:14and dragging items around.

01:16That's still enough to play 2048 or dig through Hacker News for spicy debates.

01:21Developers can try it through Google AI Studio or Vertex AI.

01:26There's a public demo on BrowserBase where you can watch the AI in action.
