We’re excited to introduce Project Mariner: an early research prototype built with Gemini 2.0 that explores the future of human-agent interaction, starting with your browser. 🌐 It’s able to understand and reason across information then uses it via an experimental Chrome extension to complete tasks for you. See it in action ↓
Looking forward to seeing how this transforms task automation and enhances productivity!
It’s still early days, but a small number of trusted testers are starting to try Project Mariner now. To build this safely and responsibly, we’re conducting active research on new types of risks and mitigations, while keeping humans in the loop. 🛠️ Find out more → https://goo.gle/gemini-2
Technically impressive! While it may not fully address the needs of basic users in their everyday tasks, I believe these capabilities are much better suited for fully autonomous agents that can handle complete workflows for professionals (e.g., after applying a fix, the agent could test the front end). It seems more valuable as a tool for automating work-related processes rather than assisting users with tasks they could easily handle on their own! Let’s see how users will use it
Looks impressive 🤩 I really liked the sidebar where it displays, step by step, what it's thinking and performing. Curious to know if the user can intervene and correct the process when they realise the model's taking a wrong path? That would be much more preferable to me than waiting until the end.
This can have profound impact on how we interact with web
Have any extras I could help test by chance?
This also will be great for Automation Testing with AI
Project Mariner redefines browsing!

6dThese kind of agentic frameworks are going to generate a lot of value by automating workflows. Imagine automating the workflow for travel concierge, scheduling & coordination, market research, bookkeeping, legal case research, and so on! Basically, any task where there is a clear directive will be initially optimized, and overtime automated using Agentic AI systems. Which brings us to an important question - what are the human jobs for the future? I’m sure they are at a higher order of complexity and creativity. A lot is about to change in a not so distant future!
