OpenAI launches Operator, an AI agent that performs tasks autonomously | TechCrunch

OpenAI launches Operator, a research preview of an AI agent capable of autonomously performing tasks within a web browser. Operator, powered by a Computer-Using Agent model, can automate tasks like booking travel and making restaurant reservations, but faces limitations such as rate limits and security restrictions. While AI agents have been touted as the next big thing in AI, OpenAI’s release of Operator will test the feasibility and safety of this vision.
