Show HN: Skyvern – open-source browser automation tool
There was another AI/browser automation project posted yesterday that got to the front page https://github.com/lavague-ai/LaVague
I guess the main advantage of this new project is that its probably more accurate by using computer vision, but as others has said it uses much more resources.
Costs will come down over time though.
Get ready for alot of "Back Office" jobs to be automated away.
