What the Gemini agent does
Google has introduced a new Gemini agent. The agent can automatically complete multi-step tasks that require switching between different applications on the user's behalf.
Goal: speed up business processes
According to the company, this capability is meant to save time, especially in business processes. Instead of users switching apps and performing each step manually, the agent is designed to carry the process through from start to finish.
Why it matters
AI agents have been spreading rapidly on both the consumer and enterprise sides. Google's Gemini agent reinforces the company's claim of cross-app automation in this race.
