Self-Operating Computer Framework

A framework to enable multimodal models to operate a computer.

Using the same inputs and outputs as a human operator, the model views the screen and decides on a series of mouse and keyboard actions to reach an objective.

Key Features

  • Compatibility: Designed for various multimodal models.
  • Integration: Currently integrated with GPT-4v as the default model, with extended support for Gemini Pro Vision.
  • Future Plans: Support for additional models.

Current Challenges

Note: GPT-4V's error rate in estimating XY mouse click locations is currently quite high. This framework aims to track the progress of multimodal models over time, aspiring to achieve human-level performance in computer operation.

Ongoing Development

At HyperwriteAI, we are developing Agent-1-Vision a multimodal model with more accurate click location predictions.

Agent-1-Vision Model API Access

We will soon be offering API access to our Agent-1-Vision model.

If you're interested in gaining access to this API, sign up here.

Run Self-Operating Computer

  1. Install the project
pip install self-operating-computer
  1. Run the project
operate
  1. Enter your OpenAI Key: If you don't have one, you can obtain an OpenAI key here
  1. Give Terminal app the required permissions: As a last step, the Terminal app will ask for permission for "Screen Recording" and "Accessibility" in the "Security & Privacy" page of Mac's "System Preferences".

Alternatively installation with .sh

  1. Clone the repo to a directory on your computer:
git clone https://github.com/OthersideAI/self-operating-computer.git
  1. Cd into directory:
cd self-operating-computer
  1. Run the installation script:
./run.sh

Using operate Modes

Multimodal Models -m

An additional model is now compatible with the Self Operating Computer Framework. Try Google's gemini-pro-vision by following the instructions below.

Start operate with the Gemini model

operate -m gemini-pro-vision

Enter your Google AI Studio API key when terminal prompts you for it If you don't have one, you can obtain a key here after setting up your Google AI Studio account. You may also need authorize credentials for a desktop application. It took me a bit of time to get it working, if anyone knows a simpler way, please make a PR:

Set-of-Mark Prompting -m gpt-4-with-som

The Self-Operating Computer Framework now supports Set-of-Mark (SoM) Prompting with the gpt-4-with-som command. This new visual prompting method enhances the visual grounding capabilities of large multimodal models.

Learn more about SoM Prompting in the detailed arXiv paper: here.

For this initial version, a simple YOLOv8 model is trained for button detection, and the best.pt file is included under model/weights/. Users are encouraged to swap in their best.pt file to evaluate performance improvements. If your model outperforms the existing one, please contribute by creating a pull request (PR).

Start operate with the SoM model

operate -m gpt-4-with-som

Voice Mode --voice

The framework supports voice inputs for the objective. Try voice by following the instructions below. Clone the repo to a directory on your computer:

git clone https://github.com/OthersideAI/self-operating-computer.git

Cd into directory:

cd self-operating-computer

Install the additional requirements-audio.txt

pip install -r requirements-audio.txt

Install device requirements For mac users:

brew install portaudio

For Linux users:

sudo apt install portaudio19-dev python3-pyaudio

Run with voice mode

operate --voice

Compatibility

  • This project is compatible with Mac OS, Windows, and Linux (with X server installed).

OpenAI Rate Limiting Note

The gpt-4-vision-preview model is required. To unlock access to this model, your account needs to spend at least $5 in API credits. Pre-paying for these credits will unlock access if you haven't already spent the minimum $5.
