OpenAI has unveiled its first AI agent, named Operator, designed to autonomously handle tasks on the web. This innovative tool, currently in a research preview for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the US, is powered by the Computer-Using Agent (CUA) model. CUA leverages GPT-4o's visual capabilities coupled with advanced reasoning to interact with websites like a human. Operator can navigate pages, input text, click buttons, and scroll to accomplish a variety of tasks, including making dinner reservations, filling out online forms, and ordering groceries.
Operator's functionality is not just limited to basic web interactions, it can also learn from its mistakes, "self-correcting" and giving users back control when needed. The AI agent operates through a dedicated web browser and keeps users updated on its actions through explanations. OpenAI plans to integrate Operator into all of its ChatGPT clients after this initial release, and hopes to make the CUA available for developers through its API. While still in early stages, Operator represents a significant stride towards more user-friendly and practical AI applications.
