“High capability” is a risk-based threshold from our Preparedness Framework. We classify a model as High capability if, before any safety controls, it could significantly lower barriers to bio misuse—even if risk isn't certain. https://openai.com/...

This is a pivotal moment for our Preparedness work. Before we reached High capability, Preparedness was about analyzing capabilities and planning safeguards. Now, for Agent and future more capable models, Preparedness safeguards have become an operational requirement.

When we founded OpenAI (10 years ago!!), one of our goals was to create an agent that could use a computer the same way as a human — with keyboard, mouse, and screen pixels. ChatGPT Agent is a big step towards that vision, and bringing its benefits to the world thoughtfully.

It feels like a cross between Manus and o3. Manus is capable of somewhat more complex tasks, but agents is better at integrating research and doing a wider range of tasks well (this is early impressions, and I know they are still working on the tool)

It feels much more like working with an actual human intern capable of a wider range of analytical and computer tasks, and, like an intern, you want to give it feedback and work back & forth. Not all the way there yet, but the paradigm is shifting from prompting to delegating.
