Anthropic's Claude AI Gains Computer Control and Coding Abilities

The new features enable Claude AI to autonomously perform computer tasks and run JavaScript code, marking a significant step in AI automation.

Anthropic's Claude AI can now autonomously control computer interfaces, performing tasks like filling forms and browsing the web.
The AI's new coding sandbox allows it to write and execute JavaScript code, enabling complex data analysis and real-time insights.
The 'Computer Use' feature, still in beta, lets Claude operate like a human, moving cursors and typing, but it faces challenges with tasks like scrolling.
Early testers highlight the AI's potential to automate repetitive tasks and gather information from multiple sources efficiently.
Anthropic emphasizes ongoing safety evaluations and assures that user data will not be used to train the AI models.
