More Information

Web Applets are small, secure pieces of web code (bundles of HTML, JavaScript, and CSS) that can run anywhere, allowing a model to take actions within software much like a human would and then generate interfaces appropriate for the user’s intent.

For example, a developer could write an applet that enables a model to respond to a query about local coffee shops by conducting internet searches and then displaying the results on an in-line map. And because the model can read the internal state of each applet, it can then conduct follow-up actions to complete a user’s request (for example, updating the map to display only coffee shops that will be open tomorrow afternoon). Anyone can build Web Applets and host them on the Web, and any client can potentially support them.
