Not every artificial intelligence application sounds useful in everyday life,Watch Easy Does It Online but Anthropic just unveiled one that could be.

Anthropic announced on its website that its "Claude" large language model has gotten an intriguing new feature: computer use. Put simply, this AI can take over your mouse cursor and perform basic computing tasks like clicking and typing. This feature is available now on the Claude 3.5 Sonnet public beta.

The feature, which Anthropic itself described as "at times cumbersome and error-prone," has apparently been embraced by companies like Asana and DoorDash. According to Anthropic, Claude's computer use capabilities can perform tasks "that require dozens, and sometimes even hundreds, of steps to complete," presumably without human intervention. For something like Asana, which is software for managing work projects, this could actually be pretty useful and save time.
