OpenAI is set to launch 'Operator', an AI agent tool, to capitalize on the growing market for AI agents across sectors.
CEO Sam Altman hinted at the development earlier, stating that the next major breakthrough will be agents.
OpenAI's chief product officer Kevin Weil predicted that 2025 will be the year that agentic systems will become mainstream, indicating that the company is preparing to develop better models and agents.
Microsoft is set to launch Operator as a research preview in January, allowing developers to access the tool through its API. Operator can perform multi-step, independent actions on behalf of the user, marking a shift towards agentic AI.
Google and Anthropic are working on integrating agentic AI into their AI agents, with Google's Project Jarvis being a notable example. Anthropic is launching Computer Use, an AI agent that can process a user's real-time computer environment and execute directed actions.
Microsoft has also developed AI tools for tasks like email management and record keeping for professionals.
OpenAI plans to use advanced natural language processing and reinforcement learning for its Operator, focusing on models like GPT-4 for linguistic understanding and reinforcement learning for agent improvement based on previous interactions.
As a result, Operator will be able to develop beyond a simple digital assistant and successfully "learn" and adapt over time, gaining knowledge through interactions and managing increasingly complicated and individualized requests.
Operator may increase productivity by cutting down on time spent on administrative or repetitive chores if it is implemented. Operator might make things easier for individual users, including scheduling appointments or keeping track of digital documents.
Operators can do data entry chores and automate customer service answers for businesses.
