OpenAI presented ChatGPT in 2022. In 2023 it arrived GPT-4 together with the innovator ‘Her’ style voice mode. In 2024 the reasoning model debuted o1. And 2025? The AI company just announced Operatora product that promises to become one of the great protagonists of the year.
Sam Altman and his team have presented live How does this tool work that puts people at the center of the scene? AI agents. Currently, as we’ll see, it can perform some actions in the browser, although the ambition is that, over time, it can handle more sophisticated tasks.
This is what Operator looks like in action
We are witnessing an initial launch. Operator is still in the research phase, but OpenAI has made a publicly available preliminary version which can be accessed from operator.chatgpt.com. The limitation? That not everyone will be able to have access to it. At the moment, it is only available for ChatGPT Pro users, the level of 200 dollars per month.
The company has also noted that access to its latest product is limited to the United States. He has said that “it will take a while” to reach Europe, and that it will be available to more users “in the coming months.” The staggered launch likely responds to regulatory issues, as we have seen in the past with products that landed in the US market first.
In development.
