Gemini 2.5 Computer Use gives agents direct browser control
Google released Gemini 2.5 Computer Use in public API preview for agents that click, type, scroll, and operate behind logins. Google also documented per-step safety checks, developer-defined confirmations, and restrictions for high-risk actions, while confirming production use in UI testing and agentic Search features.

Why it moved the index
A broadly accessible model that directly operates graphical interfaces, including logged-in workflows, materially expands consequential agent autonomy beyond structured APIs. Primary launch and model-card evidence establish access, production use, and explicit safeguards. Magnitude is moderated because it was a preview and actions were executed by a client loop with safety services and confirmation controls.
