Adept AI

Adept AI Labs is a machine learning research and product lab focused on developing general intelligence systems that can collaborate with humans. Founded in 2022 by former Google Brain researchers David Luan, Ashish Vaswani, and Niki Parmar, the company aims to create AI models capable of performing tasks across various software tools and APIs through natural language interactions.

Adept AI's flagship model, the Action Transformer (ACT-1), represents a significant step toward this goal. ACT-1 is designed to understand and execute user commands directly, allowing it to take actions within digital environments like web browsers, databases, and productivity software. By observing user interactions, ACT-1 can learn to complete tasks such as searching for houses on Redfin, updating leads in Salesforce, or generating visualizations from data.

While still in development, ACT-1 exemplifies Adept AI's vision of enabling natural language interfaces for human-computer collaboration. The company believes this approach will empower users to offload repetitive tasks to AI, fostering increased efficiency and innovation across various industries.
