OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, unveiled a new service called Operator. This generative AI service acts like an age and performs tasks for you. Using its dedicated browser, Operator views web pages and automatically types, clicks and searches without your ierveion.
The service will be rolled out gradually and will first be available to ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the US.
Operator has the ability to perform repetitive tasks in the browser and, according to OpenAI, it can fill out forms, make online purchases, and even create iernet memes. The service uses the same user ierfaces and tools that humans work with, which will create new opportunities for businesses to ieract.
This service is designed by a new model called CUA (Computer Usage Age). This model combines the vision capabilities of GPT-4o with advanced enhanced reasoning. CUA is trained to ieract with graphical user ierfaces (GUIs)—including buttons, menus, and text fields.
When the Operator encouers a problem or needs help, it returns corol to you. It also requires your manual input to eer sensitive information such as passwords or confirmation forms.
Operator can work with services like Doordash, Etsy, Booking.com, Uber and Instacart and use partners like Associated Press and Reuters for research.
