Netizen: agentic ai

ChatGPT’s new AI agent can browse the web and create PowerPoint slideshows New "agentic" AI feature combines web browsing with task-execution abilities. ......... The feature marks OpenAI's latest entry into what the tech industry calls "agentic AI"—systems that can take autonomous multi-step actions on behalf of the user. OpenAI says users can ask Agent to handle requests like assembling and purchasing a clothing outfit for a particular occasion, creating PowerPoint slide decks, planning meals, or updating financial spreadsheets with new data.......... "ChatGPT carries out these tasks using its own virtual computer," OpenAI writes, "fluidly shifting between reasoning and action to handle complex workflows from start to finish, all based on your instructions." .......... OpenAI says it has implemented safeguards against prompt injections by training the model to identify and "resist" these attacks while requiring user confirmation for consequential or suspicious-looking actions. The model is also trained to actively refuse high-risk tasks such as bank transfers. During a livestream on Thursday, one OpenAI engineer characterized Agent as a system of AI models working together, some of which constantly monitor the other models' behavior for suspicious activity. Those overseers can hypothetically halt a process if they spot a potentially dangerous scenario.

Introducing ChatGPT agent: bridging research and action ChatGPT now thinks and acts, proactively choosing from a toolbox of agentic skills to complete tasks for you using its own computer. ........ You can now ask ChatGPT to handle requests like “look at my calendar and brief me on upcoming client meetings based on recent news,” “plan and buy ingredients to make Japanese breakfast for four,” and “analyze three competitors and create a slide deck.” ChatGPT will intelligently navigate websites, filter results, prompt you to log in securely when needed, run code, conduct analysis, and even deliver editable slideshows and spreadsheets that summarize its findings.
