I think they are really overloading that word "Agent". I know there isn't a standard definition - but I think Google are stretching the meaning of that way thinner than most C Suite level execs talk about agents at. I think DeepMind could make progress if they focused on the agent definition of multi-step reasoning + action through a web browser, and deliver a ton of value, outside of lumping in the seldom used "Look at the world through a camera" or "Multi modal Robots" thing. If Google cracked robots, past plays show that the market for those aren't big enough to interest Google. Like VR, you just can't get a billion people to be interested in robots - so even if they make progress, it won't survive under Google. The "Look at the world through a camera" thing is a footnote in an Android release. Agentic computer use _is_ a product a billion people would use, and it's adjacent to the business interests of Google Search.
