OpenAI is about to launch an autonomous AI agent called "Operator" that can control a computer and perform various tasks independently, marking a major leap in the field of artificial intelligence. According to Bloomberg, the agent will debut as a research preview and developer tool in January next year, which will further intensify competition among technology giants in the field of AI agents. The editor of Downcodes will explain this breakthrough development and its potential impact in detail.
Recently, it was reported that OpenAI is preparing to launch an autonomous AI agent called "Operator", which can control the computer and perform various tasks independently.
According to Bloomberg, the AI agent is expected to debut as a research preview and developer tool in January. The move will further intensify competition among tech giants in the AI agent space, with Anthropic also recently launching its "Computer Usage" feature, while Google is said to be preparing to release its own version in December.
The introduction of “Operator” marks a major shift in artificial intelligence systems. Unlike previous AI systems that could only process text and images, this new product will be able to actively interact with computer interfaces.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said in a Reddit Q&A forum that they will continue to improve the model and believe that the next big breakthrough will be autonomous agents. Kevin Weir, chief product officer of OpenAI, mentioned in a preliminary event of the company's annual Developer Day that it is expected that autonomous systems will truly become mainstream by 2025.
With AI labs facing increasing pressure to make profits, the development team hopes to find a breakthrough product that can deliver a return on its massive investment by launching autonomous agents. The industry generally believes that autonomous AI agents will be an innovation similar to ChatGPT and can promote further development of technology.
At the same time, this new attempt of OpenAI has also received widespread attention in the industry, and the market has high hopes for AI agents that can complete tasks autonomously. Although the specific consumer release plan of "Operator" has not yet been made public, it is foreseeable that the advent of this product will lead a new trend in artificial intelligence technology and promote the launch of more related products and technologies.
The emergence of “Operator” indicates that AI technology will enter a new stage of development, and its impact on all walks of life is worth looking forward to. The editor of Downcodes will continue to pay attention to the follow-up progress of "Operator" and bring you more related reports.
