ChatGPT Agent

OpenAI introduces the ChatGPT Agent, a unified agentic system that integrates browsing, tool use, and reasoning to handle complex tasks end-to-end. It combines capabilities from the earlier Operator and Deep Research systems with new tools like a GUI-based web browser, terminal, and connectors (e.g., Gmail, GitHub). This allows it to autonomously conduct multi-step workflows, like planning events, analyzing competitors, or editing spreadsheets, on its own virtual computer, all while keeping the user in control via interruptibility and secure browser takeover.

• Combines web interaction, code execution, and APIs into a single, coherent system that reasons and acts fluidly.

• Achieves state-of-the-art results across benchmarks like WebArena (78.2% pass@1), BrowseComp (68.9%), and SpreadsheetBench (45.5% vs Copilot Excel’s 20.0%).

• Outperforms humans in half of the cases on internal knowledge-work evaluations and excels in niche domains like investment banking modeling and green energy planning.

• Emphasizes safety through prompt injection defenses, explicit user confirmation for real-world actions, and private browser sessions with deletion controls.

• Treated as “High Bio/Chem capability” under OpenAI’s Preparedness Framework, with extra safeguards for misuse prevention and biosecurity.

ChatGPT Agent is rolling out to Pro, Plus, and Team users, with broader access coming soon.
