• Google’s prototype AI, Jarvis, briefly appeared on the Chrome web browser extension store.
• The AI was described as “a helpful companion that surfs the web with you.”
• When used, the prototype appeared to not work.

Late last month, it was reported that Google was working on an autonomous AI assistant codenamed Jarvis. A recent mishap on Google’s part has now confirmed the existence of this new AI.

According to The Information, Google accidentally publicized an internal preview of Jarvis on the Chrome web browser extension store. For a short time, users were able to download the internal preview. However, the prototype would not work if you tried to use it, as it requires access permissions. The firm reportedly took the listing for the internal preview down by mid-afternoon that day.
