Google made Computer Use a standard capability of Gemini 3.5 Flash — the agent that watches the screen and drives apps. The signal isn't that the feature exists but that it landed on Flash, not the flagship: agentic control is descending from demo tier to everyday tier. Trade press picked up the workplace-adoption gap — teams wanting it, companies balking — hinting that org readiness, not model capability, is now the bottleneck. Parallel arxiv work on audio scam detection widens the agent surface area. Adoption friction is the next story.
