While all the security / privacy concerns in this thread are spot on I must say that this thing works. I had it do a proximity based search for me in Google Maps and then populate a new Google Sheet with this data and it just went off and did it right the first time. Now obviously Google could probably do this much better once they get around to it, but this is the first truly usable browser automation tool I've ever used and I spent years working with Selenium.

My plan is to create shadow accounts for Atlas and use it to automate tedious research tasks that span multiple websites that other AIs have trouble accessing.

I am not sure it *works*. I just tried it on the BILD homepage (a German tabloid with a lot of images instead of text), and it was pretty bad at navigating it. It needed a lot of hints to find a particular article, selected multiple times the wrong article, and in the beginning even, it didn't realize the webpage was in German.

It works well on pages that use a lot of text though, and especially on pages like hacker news. I wonder if this will open up a new stream of work for devs: "Make our web-page AI friendly".

do you know if it can run the same task in a loop/at predetermined times?
