The new Chatgpt agent of Openai can control a full computer and carry out tasks

Openai is moving in the most popular trend now: artificial intelligence agents, or tools that go beyond the chat step to complete the complex multiple -step tasks on the user. The company appeared on Thursday for the first time in Chatgpt Agent, which it depicted as a tool that can complete the work on your behalf using the “virtual computer”.

In briefing and clarifying with freedomYash Kumar and ISA FULFORD said – driving the product and searching for a Chatgpt agent, respectively – it is supported by a new model that has been specially developed for the product. The company said that the new tool can perform tasks such as considering the user’s evaluation to inform them about the upcoming customer meetings, planning and purchase components to provide a family breakfast, and establish a chip platform based on its analysis of competing companies.

The model is trained behind Agent Chatgpt, which does not have a specific name, on complex tasks that require multiple tools – such as the text browser, a visual browser, and a station where users can import their own data – through reinforcement learning, the same technology used in all thinking models in Openai. Openai said that Agent Chatgpt combines the capabilities of both the operator and deep research, which are current AI tools.

To develop the new tool, the company collected the teams behind both the operator and the deep research in one unified team. Kumar and Wolford said freedom The new team consists of 20 and 35 people across the product and research.

In the demonstration, Kumar and Wolford showed potential use cases of ChatgPT, such as asking this to plan a date of date by contacting Google Calendar to find out when the user has a free evening, then a reference via OpenTable to find holes in certain types of restaurants. They also showed how the user can boycott the process by adding another restaurant category, for example, to search for it. Another demonstration showed how ChatgPT can create a research report on the appearance of Labubus versus Beanie Babies.

Volford said she enjoyed using online shopping because the technology mix behind deep research and the work of the operator was better and was more comprehensive than the operation experience only using the operator. Kumar said that he started using a Chatgpt agent to automate small parts of his life, such as asking for new office positions in Openai every Thursday instead of appearing on Monday after I forgot to ask for this anywhere for the garden.

Kumar said that since Agent Chatgpt can reach a “full computer” instead of just a browser, they “improved a bit of tools a little.”

According to illustrations, the tool can be a bit slow. When asked about cumin, Kumar said that their team focuses more on “improving difficult tasks” and that users are not intended to sit and see the work of Chatgpt agent.

“Even if it takes 15 minutes, half an hour, it is a large acceleration compared to the time that it will take to do so,” Volford said, adding that the Openai’s research team focuses more on low use cases. “It’s one of those things in which you can start something in the background and then return to it.”

Before Chatgpt agent does anything “irreversible”, such as sending an email or a reservation, it is required first, Folford said.

Since the model behind the tool has increased its capabilities, Openai said that it has activated the guarantees that it created for “high biological and chemical capabilities”, although the company said it does not contain “direct evidence that the model can help the beginner useful to create severe biological or chemical damage” in the form of weapons. Activating man in May Similar guarantees To launch one of her models, Claude, OPUS 4.

When asked if the tool is allowed to perform financial transactions, Kumar said that these procedures have been restricted “at the present time”, and that there is an additional protection called the monitoring mode, as the user moves to a certain category of web pages, such as financial sites, they should not move away from the Tab Chatgpt agent that will work at work or stop work.

Openai will start offering the tool today to the Prous, Plus and Team users – Choose “Agent Put” in the tools menu or write “/Agent” to reach it – the company said it will provide it to Chatgpt Enterprise and Educeation later this summer. There is no timetable for the European economic zone and Switzerland.

The concept of artificial intelligence agents has been a stunning trend in industry for years. The ideal developers work towards it is something like Iron Man’s Jarvis, a tool that can perform specific functional functions, check the calendars of people to get the best time to schedule an event, and buy a gift based on the preferences of a friend, and more, but at the present time, they are somewhat limited to helping to cote and collect research reports.

The term “AI Agent” became more common for investors and executives of technology in 2023 and soon got the speed, especially after Fintech Klarna announced in February 2024 that in only one month of operation, its artificial intelligence agent dealt with two-thirds of its customer service conversations-the equivalent of 700 human workers completely. From there, Amazon, Meta and Google executive officials began to mention the goals of the artificial intelligence agent on The profit call after the profit call. Since then, artificial intelligence companies have been a strategic employment to reach these goals: Google, for example, Last week Windsurf CEO, co -founder and some members of the research and development team to help increase AI AGE projects.

For the first time in Openai from Agent Chatgpt, its release from the operator in January Break “An agent can go to the web to perform your tasks” because he was trained to be able to deal with Internet buttons, text fields and more. It is also part of a larger direction in artificial intelligence, as large and small companies of artificial intelligence will attract consumer attention and become perfect habits. Last October, AI AI, backed by Amazon behind Claude, released a similar tool called “computer use”, which it described as a tool that can use a computer in the same way as a person can complete the tasks on the user. Multiple AI companies, including Openai, Google and Perplexity, offer an Amnesty International tool that all three are called deep research, indicating artificial intelligence agent who can write great analyzes and research reports for anything the user wants.
