OpenAI said that ChatGPT Agent combines the capabilities of both Operator and Deep Research, two of its existing AI tools. Another demonstration showed how ChatGPT Agent could generate a research report on the rise of Labubus versus Beanie Babies. Kumar said that since ChatGPT Agent has access to “an entire computer” instead of just a browser, they’ve “enhanced the toolset quite a bit.”According to the demo, though, the tool can be a bit slow. When asked about latency, Kumar said their team is more focused on “optimizing for hard tasks” and that users aren’t meant to sit and watch ChatGPT Agent work. From there, executives at Amazon, Meta, Google, and more started mentioning their AI agent goals on earnings call after earnings call.
