Google announced Project Oscar, an experimental open-source project maintainer of agents developed under the auspices of the Go project.
Project Oscar focuses on processing incoming issues, such as matching questions to existing documentation.
In other words, Go uses an AI agent that takes issue reports and enriches them by reviewing this data or invoking development tools to surface the information that matters most. The agent also interacts with whoever reports an issue to clarify anything, even if human maintainers are not online.
“Oscar is very much an experiment. We don’t know yet where it will go or what we will learn. Even so, our first prototype, the @gabyhelp bot, has already had many successful interactions in the Go issue tracker,” said Google.
Google said Project Oscar will soon be deployed to other open-source projects from Google.
