OpenAI needs a web browser if it's going to be truly useful. So Sam Altman will have a big job on his hands to convince people to use his new one.

OpenAI has launched a new programme called ChatGPT Agent which can 'complete complex tasks from start to finish'

OpenAI is rolling out a new feature for ChatGPT designed to make the AI chatbot a semi-autonomous digital assistant. CEO Sam Altman and several other OpenAI luminaries demonstrated the new ChatGPT Agent tool in a livestream, showcasing how it functions similarly to OpenAI's Operator tool, combined with the Deep Research feature.

The ChatGPT Agent combines intelligence, autonomy, and real-world action—but Sam Altman wants users to “go slow.” From booking travel to managing data, the AI can do it all, yet its ability to make decisions raises safety concerns.

OpenAI has launched ChatGPT Agent, a powerful tool that can autonomously perform tasks using a virtual computer, marking a major step toward more human-like, task-oriented artificial general intelligence.

Originally set to launch next week, OpenAI's open-weight model is on pause indefinitely.
