OpenAI Launches Advanced ChatGPT Agent to Perform Complex Tasks

OpenAI has introduced a new artificial intelligence agent for ChatGPT that can carry out complex tasks, marking a significant step in the evolution of AI-powered applications.

The new agent, launched Thursday, is available to users subscribed to ChatGPT’s Pro, Plus and Team tiers. It combines features from OpenAI’s earlier tools, including Operator, which interacts with websites, and Deep Research, which handles multi-step research tasks.

The AI agent can perform tasks such as ordering an outfit for a wedding, factoring in details like dress code and weather conditions. It uses a virtual computer equipped with tools that allow it to browse the web and interact with online platforms.

Users can also connect external apps such as Gmail and Github, enabling ChatGPT to retrieve information relevant to a given prompt.

AI agents are being widely adopted across the tech industry, with companies like Microsoft, Salesforce and Oracle investing heavily in the technology to improve productivity and reduce operational costs.
