Openai has developed a new AI operator intended to boost the Automation of tasks performed through the web. It’s about Operatordesigned to perform online tasks in a completely autonomous way, which for now the company has presented a test version.
Operator uses a “computer user agent” model, which combines GPT-4O functions with advanced reasoning thanks to learning by reinforcement. Thanks to this, the agent will be able to interact with graphic user interfaces, and therefore, interpret what appears on web pages through screenshots.
After interpreting what is in them, and “knowing” for what each of its elements is, Operator will be able to perform actions with them, such as writing in the spaces of the pages arranged for it. Also click on certain areas and links, and move along the page. To do this, it will use a specific browser, integrated in Chatgpt, without having to use APIS integrations.
Operator users will be able to perform complex tasks on concrete websites only by asking them through chatgpt. For example, book a vacation on a travel website, or locate a product based on specific features in an online store. It works by dividing complex tasks into simple actions, it has automatic correction capabilities, and in case you find any complication, you can transfer control of the action to be performed on users.
The agent incorporates security measures that allow him to reject the realization of tasks that are harmful. With them you can also protect sensitive information, in addition to requesting the user’s approval before performing various actions considered delicate, such as the insertion of access to user accounts access.
In principle it will be Available in the United States through a specific page within chatgptand it will only be accessible For subscribers to Chatgpt Prothat pay 200 dollars per month for using chatgpt. OpenAI already has plans to expand Operator’s availability to the rest of the chatgpt payment plans (Plus, Team and Enterprise), as well as to increase its level of integration into the platform.
