OpenAI has begun previewing a new tool called Operator that can navigate within a web browser. According to a blog post published Thursday<\/a>, the software is powered by what the company calls a Computer-Using Agent. \u201cCUA is trained to interact with graphical user interfaces (GUIs) \u2014 the buttons, menus, and text fields people see on a screen \u2014 just as humans do,\u201d says OpenAI of the model. \u201cThis gives it the flexibility to perform digital tasks without using OS- or web-specific APIs.\u201c<\/p>\n The current release of Operator builds on OpenAI\u2019s GPT-4o model. It combines the vision capabilities of that algorithm with \u201cadvanced reasoning\u201d trained through reinforcement learning. Operator has the ability to \u201cbreak tasks into multi-step plans and adaptively self-correct when challenges arise.\u201d According to OpenAI, that capability represents the next stage in AI development.<\/p>\n
