Developing a computer use model

Developing a computer use model represents a significant breakthrough in AI progress. Claude 3.5 Sonnet can now follow user commands to move a cursor, click on relevant locations, and input information via a virtual keyboard, emulating human interaction with computers. This capability will unlock a huge range of applications that are not possible for current AI assistants. The research process involved training Claude to interpret what's happening on a screen and then use the software tools available to carry out tasks. Safety measures have been implemented to minimize risks associated with computer use, such as prompt injection attacks and potential misuse by users.
