Curious: Can someone explain what they are excited to use this for? Can someone provide a large scale use-case/scenario?


From a developer point of view, this would vastly improve QA for web apps that have UI. As a user, I'd really appreciate a text-to-speech UI that does not require a keyboard or mouse. Ideally, I'd like to see the same UI available for anything, as if asking another person to interact with computer for you.


Filling out job applications using my resume


Auto fill tools already exist though but I think this could be another superset of autofill tools.


Auto-fill tools would still be super manual because none of these application workflows are consisntent, even on the exact same provider (myworkdayjobs). With auto-fill you're still effectively aligning fields on a page with saved values and it takes forever.


Filling in a timesheet for meetings for the week based on calendar items. Categorizing whether it's internal or external meeting based on whether email addresses invited match your employer's domains, and which project it was for based on the title and description.


I could use it to fill out timesheets in Zoho, find a list of Facebook events that I'm actually interested in, and download forms from my bank. These are tasks I do often that the UIs make far more difficult than they need to be.
