It really isn't that novel of an application. *claw and hermes have been around for some months, some Chinese providers offered this (minimax has on-demand hosted while z.ai has autoClaw BYOC). This just tosses it into a VM with some built in tools to do typical things. Perplexity computer has been around for almost a year and is similar.

This is just the big US guys fighting for attention (It is all you need after all)


What are the odds normie users will find a use something even tech users don’t?

Honestly, pretty high. Tech savvy users know how to do a lot of these things on our own and even to ask doesn't occur to us. The most creative users are those who are unaware of the limitations and will just try stuff.

And Meta Muse


And Google already had "Duet AI" before Gemini. :)

We already have Google Spark and Microsoft Scout?
