Google releases its 'Jarvis': AI takes control of our browser
Now the browser is on its own: are we ready to trust AI with our online habits?

Friends, it looks like Google has decided to surprise us again with its innovations. Google is developing an artificial intelligence that will roam the Internet, make purchases and conduct research on our behalf. The project has been named Jarvis. Apparently, it was inspired by the movie Iron Man. Imagine the following. You're sitting on your couch and your computer is booking the best airline tickets, finding a hotel for you, and even ordering dinner. It's amazing, isn't it? But is it too much?
But think about it. Is it really necessary? AI controls our browsers:. That sounds a bit scary. Perhaps machines will do all the work, and we will gradually become passive spectators. Sure, it's useful to have someone find deals for us and write reports for us. But aren't we in danger of losing our critical thinking skills? Remember how we used to spend hours reading reviews before buying a new cell phone or choosing a travel itinerary? Today, machines do all that for us. We will become lazy and lose our curiosity.
On the other hand, technology doesn't stand still. I remember when I was skeptical about smartphones, wondering why I needed one when a regular cell phone would suffice. Now I can't go a day without my smartphone. My contacts, social media, and even my bank are all on one device. This AI can become the same. We'll be cautious at first, but soon we won't be able to imagine life without AI.
It's interesting to note that Google is not alone in this competition. Microsoft and Open AI have also developed their own “computer agents” and are not sitting idly by. It looks like a full-blown competition between the giant tech companies is about to begin. Who knows. Maybe something really useful for us will emerge. Competition always promotes progress - remember how iPhone competitors devastated the smartphone market by causing a flood of innovation?
But there's another side of the coin. From a security perspective, giving AI access to our personal data and finances opens the door to potential threats. What happens if the system breaks down or falls into the wrong hands? I remember a friend who lost all his savings because of a hacked account. Even more so if AI is monitoring our online shopping and banking.
There are also ethical concerns. Where is the line between convenience and total dependency; if AI starts making decisions for us, won't we lose our individuality? Imagine your computer choosing the movies you watch, the music you listen to, maybe even the friends you chat with. That would be a little uncomfortable, wouldn't it? Wouldn't we be in danger of becoming completely dependent on the decisions that machines make, only for them to pick up on them?
But let's not criticize too harshly. Perhaps these technologies can help people with disabilities and make their lives easier. For example, for those who can't operate a computer on their own, such AI would be a real savior. And in the professional world, automating routine tasks could greatly increase productivity, freeing up time for more creative work.
Ultimately, it all depends on how we use these technologies. You can cut bread with a knife, or you can hurt yourself. The key is to find a balance between convenience and responsibility. Technology is a tool, and it is up to us to decide whether it does good or harm.
In any case, let's keep an eye on developments. The world is changing. In the meantime, perhaps we should explore the Internet ourselves and make our own discoveries. After all, “you can't catch a fish without trying”. Who knows? Perhaps in a few years we'll look back fondly on times of our own research.
One last thing. We should not be afraid of the new, but neither should we forget the old. As one wise person said, “technology should serve people, not the other way around.” Use AI as an assistant, not as a substitute for your own abilities. After all, there is no substitute for a living mind and human communication. AI is already knocking on our door, and it's up to us to decide what to do with it.
