Google’s computer-controlling artificial intelligence Jarvis was accidentally leaked

Jarvis, the artificial intelligence (AI) prototype developed by Google, was recently accidentally leaked to the public via the Chrome Web Store. The company’s new AI model aims to offer more than a traditional digital assistant. Developed by Google, Jarvis has the ability to perform operations on users’ computers by automating daily tasks. With these features, Jarvis, which goes beyond simple tasks such as presenting information or making reminders, seems to be designed with the capacity to perform certain operations on the computer independently. Leaked information shows that Jarvis can browse the internet through the browser and complete transactions such as shopping and booking flight tickets on his own. This is considered as one of the signs that artificial intelligence is a candidate to play a deeper role in the daily lives of individuals.

However, this leaked prototype was not yet fully functional. A journalist who tried Jarvis reported that he was unable to complete any transactions due to access barriers preventing the app from performing certain tasks. Google quickly removed Jarvis’ page from the Chrome Web Store after noticing this early access bug. The company is planned to officially introduce this prototype in December, and Jarvis will find itself in great competition after the introduction. One of its prominent competitors, Anthropic’s AI assistant called Claude, is equipped with similar capabilities, and this competition raises important questions about how the computer control capabilities of AI technologies will shape in the future.

The leak of Google’s Jarvis AI prototype indicates that competition in the field of artificial intelligence is growing rapidly. Claude AI assistant, developed by Anthropic, one of its competitors, has recently entered the beta phase and is available to users. Claude stands out as a model of artificial intelligence with the ability to control computers, similar to Jarvis. For example, in addition to operating on the browser, Claude has abilities such as typing text on the computer, moving the mouse cursor, and activating buttons. Such advanced features show that AI assistants will be able to take over users’ daily tasks more quickly and efficiently in the future.

Official announcement for Google Jarvis will come in December

When Google officially introduces Jarvis in December, it will have to compete with strong rivals like Claude. It is thought that Google aims to present Jarvis as a more capable and secure tool, especially in line with the increasing demand for artificial intelligence assistants. The fact that Claude is equipped with computer control features gives the impression that such AI assistants can be used effectively in a wide range of areas, from workforce to time management. Google’s Jarvis stands out with its aim of developing these capabilities in line with the user experience.

These developments in the field of artificial intelligence assistants also raise different ethical and security questions in the technology world. The ability of AI models to provide computer control may raise certain concerns regarding the privacy and security of user data. If these technologies become widespread and users entrust their personal devices to artificial intelligence, the security vulnerabilities and abuse risks that may arise continue to be discussed. It is not yet clear what measures companies will take to make such artificial intelligence assistants more secure and protect user data.

How much artificial intelligence assistants will develop in the coming period and in which areas they will have more control authority continues to be closely monitored in the technology world. Google’s Jarvis AI, along with strong competitors such as Anthropic’s Claude model, indicate that innovations in this field will continue rapidly and artificial intelligence can find a wider impact in daily life.
