Google Launches Project Oscar for AI Agent in Software Management

TapTechNews July 18th news, Google today released a press release announcing the launch of Project Oscar to help open source development teams use and create AI Agents to manage software projects.

Google held the 2024 I/O Connect developer event in Bangalore, India, and its Go language development team launched Project Oscar. By building an open source platform for AI Agents, it can help software product teams monitor problems or errors in the development process.

These AI Agents can be deployed in development, planning, operation, or after-sales support, etc. Developers do not need to rewrite any code and can interact through natural language.

Google's product manager of open source programming language Go, Cameron Balahan, said that Oscar has now been deployed in the project to help the Go development team track error reports and the participation of other contributors.

Balahan said that the Go project has more than 93,000 submissions and 2,000 contributors, so it is very difficult to track all possible problems.

The AI Agent used by Go is developed through Project Oscar, which can receive problem reports and enrich the problem reports by reviewing these data or invoking development tools to highlight the most important information. The AI Agent also interacts with the person reporting the problem to clarify any issues, even if the human maintainer is not online.
