Anthropic, a generative AI startup competing with OpenAI, has introduced an early version of an innovative AI feature designed to emulate human travel agents. This development aims to streamline the travel planning process, potentially allowing users to bypass traditional online travel agents in the future.
The feature, which is part of Anthropic’s generative AI search engine Claude, is capable of performing tasks typically associated with human computer interaction, such as navigating screens, moving cursors, clicking buttons, and entering text. This functionality was showcased through three technical demonstrations released on Tuesday.
One of these demonstrations focused specifically on making travel plans, a common application used by competitors like OpenAI and Google to illustrate their AI capabilities. Rather than developing specialized tools for each task, Anthropic has equipped Claude with general computer skills, enabling it to operate a variety of standard software and tools designed for human use. This approach opens up new possibilities for developers looking to integrate AI into everyday tasks.
