A new story says that the first ChatGPT AI agent might drop early next year. Codenamed Operator, the AI might be able to control your computer on your behalf, similar to what Anthropic and Google want to do with their AI agents.

The Operator codename, which triggered Matrix connections immediately even though it has nothing to do with those fictitious operators, comes from Bloomberg. The report notes that an Operator AI agent will be able to write code or book travel via a web browser on your computer.
