(Reuters) - Alphabet's Google is developing artificial intelligence technology that takes over a web browser to complete tasks such as research and shopping, The Information reported on Saturday. 

Google is set to demonstrate the product code-named Project Jarvis as soon as December with the release of its next flagship Gemini large language model, the report added, citing people with direct knowledge of the product.

Microsoft ( MSFT ) backed OpenAI also wants its models to conduct research by browsing the web autonomously with the assistance of a "CUA," or a computer-using agent, that can take actions based on its findings, Reuters reported in July. 

Anthropic and Google are trying to take the agent concept a step further with software that interacts directly with a person's computer or browser, the report said.

Google didn't immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
