The tech giant has revealed a new AI agent that can take control of a user’s web browser and perform actions on their behalf.

Called Nova Act, the AI agent is set to serve as a digital assistant and is part of a new generation of of artificial intelligence.

In a blog post, Amazon said: “We think of agents as systems that can complete tasks and act in a range of digital and physical environments on behalf of the user.

“Today, such agents are still in an early stage. The Nova Act SDK is a crucial step forward, toward building reliable agents by enabling developers to break down complex workflows into atomic commands (e.g., search, checkout, answer questions about the screen).”

Amazon have been working on its new AGI SF Lab - which is dedicated to developing AI - and the Nova Act is the first AI model to come out of it.
