Our take is that, while that happens, agents today need to be able to access all the web resources that we can access as humans
Also, browsers are a really special piece of software because they provide access to almost every other kind of software. This makes them arguably the single most important tool for AI agents, and that’s why we believe that a browser might be all agents need to suddenly become ten times more useful than they already are
there will be demand for AI-first online services as people continue to delegate more and more tasks to agents and this will drive implementation
Seems dumb to create some other representation when we have an ubiquitous machine readable format that Ai understands quite well
such as agent native shopping platforms whereby a human will bring you something from walmart or what not could spring up and disrupt your instacart of the world
this of course is just one simple example, when it works better for the clawdbot or whatever comes next what are the users going to choose they'll say 'get me some apples from walmart using instacartforbots' because they know the agent success rate will be higher
Instacrats primary resource is not the website, it's the network of shoppers. You cannot replace that with Ai
I stopped using these services very quickly because the person (or machine) on the other side will never pick the same way I do. They don't care about quality, they care about time & money. My use of Ai is not going to change their incentives
