OpenAI's Operator AI agent is expanding its reach to eight more countries, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, India, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and the UK. This move comes after its initial launch in the US in January.
Operator is an AI-powered agent that can navigate and interact with websites to handle repetitive tasks, such as filling out forms, ordering groceries, and creating content like memes. It's powered by OpenAI's Computer-Using Agent (CUA) model, which integrates advanced reasoning and computer vision capabilities.
To access Operator, users need to have a Pro-tier subscription, which costs $200 per month. OpenAI is still working on making Operator available in the EU, Switzerland, Norway, Liechtenstein, and Iceland.
Operator's autonomous task handling capabilities allow it to handle complex online tasks independently. Users can also provide custom instructions for specific websites, such as setting airline preferences for flight bookings. Additionally, Operator can automate multiple tasks simultaneously and prompt users to intervene for tasks requiring login credentials, payments, or CAPTCHA verification.
Overall, Operator aims to enhance AI-powered automation for users worldwide, making it easier to manage repetitive tasks and freeing up time for more complex and creative work.
