Google launches universal Gemini agent for enterprises, routing tasks to Anthropic's Claude among others

Pichai said Gemini has more than 1 billion monthly active users, and that nearly 90% of the Fortune 100 use Gemini Enterprise. Google is starting with businesses to solve the 'harder problems around security, scale, and performance' before a consumer launch.

Thomas Kurian said the agent takes 'objectives, not just instructions.' It plans its own work and uses custom skills.

The controversy is a reported Mac setting, 'Additional sandbox options', that lets Gemini delete files and open apps without asking each time.
