8 hours ago

Google's internal AI tool, 'Agent Smith', automates coding tasks and has become so popular that access was restricted due to high usage.
The tool builds on Google's existing 'Antigravity' platform, operates asynchronously in the background, and integrates with internal tools and employee profiles.
Cofounder Sergey Brin emphasized AI agents' importance at Google, hinting at a tool like 'OpenClaw', while CEO Sundar Pichai pressures employees to adopt AI.
Google employees are expected to use AI tools, with adoption influencing performance reviews, and internal projects like 'Project EAT' aim to standardize AI use.
