Hey - I'm on the team that launched this. Please let me know if you have any questions!


I am on https://gemini.browserbase.com/ and just click the use case mentioned on the site "Go to Hacker News and find the most controversial post from today, then read the top 3 comments and summarize the debate."

It did not work, multiple times, just gets stuck after going to Hacker news.


It's a bit funny that I give Google Gemini a task and then it goes on the Google Search site and it gets stuck in the captcha tarpit that's supposed to block unwanted bots. But I guess Google Gemini shouldn't be unwanted for Google. Can't you ask the search team to whitelist the Gemini bot?


How are you going to deal with reCAPTCHA and ad impressions? Sounds like a conflict of interest.


No easy answers on this one unfortunately, lots of conversations ongoing on these - but our default stance has been to hand back control to the user in cases of captcha and have them solve these when they arise.


What about when all your competitors are solving the CAPTCHAs?


Really cool stuff! Any interesting challenges the team ran into while developing it?
