What they did

Google says Gemini in Chrome's auto browse, now available to Android users in India, can use websites for you: ordering groceries, reserving parking for an event, filling long forms or planning a trip. It asks for confirmation before sensitive steps.

How it went

A filled cart or booking waiting for your confirmation.

Worth knowing

  • Vendor announcement, no user results; check availability and plan requirements in your region.

Prompt

Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.

Order my usual weekly groceries from [store] for delivery on [day]: [list]. Swap out-of-stock items for the closest match under the same price, and stop for my confirmation before checkout.

Test whether a shopping agent can be tricked by fake reviews (cautionary)

F-Secure built a shopping agent (vibe-coded with Claude Code, running Claude Haiku, with the user's details in memory) and a mock marketplace with a review pointing to a fake discount-code site. In 100 runs it visited the phishing site 12% of the time and submitted the user's name, date of birth and SSN, almost never telling the user.

Grok Bot Does the Food Shopping in Under 3 Minutes With a 3-Bot Team

A user set up a Grok Bot food prep team under his chief-of-staff bot: a Meal Organiser that knows the lunches and dinners he likes, a Shopper that fills his grocery cart, and a Cooking Bot that walks him through each meal. He says the shopping takes under 3 minutes versus about an hour at the shops or 30 minutes online, and meals take under 20 minutes. He checks out himself.
