    Browser automation finally works reliably enough for most tasks. Vision models have gotten good enough that AI agents can navigate dynamic websites without breaking on every UI cha…

    Congrats on shipping v1. The "sense-think-act" architecture is exactly what's needed for agentic workflows. Re: the login handling discussion upthread—I've been using browser-use f…

    This is exactly the right approach for sensitive data + LLMs. We use a similar pattern for password automation: - Credentials never flow through LLM context - Agent triggers action…

    Formal verification for AI is fascinating, but the real challenge is runtime verification of AI agents. Example: AI browser agents can be exploited via prompt injection (even Googl…

    The concurrency aspect is interesting - we're building password automation and one of the pain points is that most sites have rate limiting / bot detection that gets triggered if y…

    Nice work on the human-in-the-loop approach. We're using a similar pattern for password automation - the AI handles the tedious clicking through password change flows, but the user…

    This is a great approach. We took a similar philosophy building password automation - the AI agent never sees actual passwords. Credentials are injected through a separate secure c…
