Testing and building with Computer Use from OpenAI



AI Summary

Summary of Video: Open AI’s New Tools

  • Overview of New Tools: Open AI released new tools including web search, file search, and computer use for agentic applications, along with an agent SDK.

  • Demonstration of Computer Use:

    • Executes a command to open the Edge browser and search for NVIDIA cards on Google.
    • Handles 1080p resolution without needing conversions unlike previous models.
    • Requires attention as it controls the local machine, not a sandbox environment.
    • Utilizes screenshots for feedback and retrieves actions from the model based on the screenshots.
    • Demonstrates variability in action execution, suggesting improvements in learning and adaptability.
  • Implementation Steps:

    • The video outlines how to set up a local browsing environment using Playwright or Selenium or with a local virtual machine using Docker.
    • Actions like clicking, scrolling, typing, and waiting are outlined in the documentation.
    • The implementation process involves sending inputs (text and screenshots) and receiving feedback from the model for repeated execution until completion.
  • Implementation Example:

    • Example provided to create a Python script to implement the computer use agent.
    • Initial setup is discussed, including potential errors and solutions encountered in previous tests.
