OpenAI is rolling out new options for chatbot ChatGPT to carry out a variety of increasingly complicated tasks on a user’s behalf, part of its push to bring so-called AI agents to the mainstream.
ChatGPT agent, set to be unveiled during a livestreamed event on Thursday, is designed to streamline personal and professional projects, such as planning a meal and ordering ingredients for it online, or creating a slideshow for a business meeting. The tool works through OpenAI’s flagship chatbot and combines the capabilities of two AI services it rolled out earlier this year: Operator, which can browse, type and click on the internet much in the way a human would; and Deep Research, which is meant to handle time-consuming online research.
