Google goes “agentic” with Gemini 2.0’s ambitious AI agent features
Google barrels ahead with a push into AI systems that take action for you.
"Over the last year, we have been investing in developing more agentic models, meaning they can understand more about the world around you, think multiple steps ahead, and take action on your behalf, with your supervision," said Google CEO Sundar Pichai in a statement. Project Mariner, a new Chrome extension prototype, helps users complete web-based tasks in an agentic manner by understanding screen content and browser elements, similar to Microsoft's Copilot Vision. Overall, Google emphasizes that Gemini 2.0 is still a work in progress, likely to trickle out with updates, larger models, and enhancements over time: "We’re still in the early stages of development, but we’re excited to see how trusted testers use these new capabilities and what lessons we can learn, so we can make them more widely available in products in the future."
