This new tool can perform <strong>multi-step operations<\/strong> on the user&#8217;s computer on its own. ChatGPT Agent is capable of executing complex tasks such as <strong>Browse websites<\/strong>, <strong>gathering information<\/strong>, <strong>creating presentations<\/strong>, and <strong>running code<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OpenAI has begun making this tool available to <strong>ChatGPT Pro, Plus, and Team users<\/strong>. The tool can be activated through &#8220;agent mode&#8221; in the ChatGPT interface or directly with the &#8220;\/agent&#8221; command. Broader access for enterprise and educational plans is planned towards the end of summer. Pro users have virtually <strong>unlimited task rights<\/strong> per month, while other paid users receive <strong>50 tasks per month<\/strong> and have additional usage rights with flexible credit options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Write, It Does the Rest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-2-7.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-2-7.webp 720w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-2-7-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-2-7-390x220.webp 390w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-2-7-150x84.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ChatGPT Agent<\/strong> performs complex tasks based solely on <strong>natural language commands<\/strong> written by users. For example, if a user says, &#8220;Plan a Japanese breakfast for four people and buy the ingredients,&#8221; the agent first researches suitable recipes, then creates the ingredient list, and becomes capable of ordering them from online markets. Similarly, requests such as &#8220;Analyze three competitors and prepare a presentation&#8221; can be transformed into research reports supported by slides. Meanwhile, ChatGPT Agent is <strong>not entirely autonomous<\/strong>. It will ask for your permission when an <strong>irreversible decision<\/strong> needs to be made (e.g., placing an order, sending an email). To perform these tasks, the capabilities of OpenAI&#8217;s previous &#8220;agents,&#8221; <strong>&#8220;Operator&#8221;<\/strong> and <strong>&#8220;Deep Research&#8221;<\/strong> systems, have been combined under one roof. Operator was an interface controller that could click buttons and fill out forms. Deep Research acted as a research engine that could summarize dozens of different web sources. ChatGPT Agent, by combining these two systems, has gained a much wider range of tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gmail and GitHub Integration, Terminal Access, and API Usage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new agent can connect to external services like <strong>Gmail<\/strong> and <strong>GitHub<\/strong> through <strong>ChatGPT Connectors<\/strong>. This allows users to access and analyze information in their emails or collect data from code repositories on GitHub. At the same time, the system has <strong>terminal access<\/strong>; meaning it can write, run, and interpret the output of code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, thanks to <strong>API integration<\/strong>, the agent can communicate with different web services, undertaking more tasks. Thus, it can not only generate content but also perform interactive actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">At the Peak of Its Performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to OpenAI, <strong>ChatGPT Agent<\/strong> operates with one of the most powerful models the company has developed to date. The model achieved a <strong>41.6% success rate<\/strong> in the challenging &#8220;Humanity&#8217;s Last Exam.&#8221; This rate is almost twice as good compared to OpenAI&#8217;s o3 and o4-mini models. It also showed a <strong>27.4% success<\/strong> rate in the FrontierMath benchmark test. This rate is approximately four times the previous record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Security and Limitations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-3-3.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-3-3.webp 720w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-3-3-300x195.webp 300w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/indir-3-3-150x98.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>OpenAI has significantly increased <strong>security measures<\/strong> due to the new system&#8217;s advanced capabilities. <strong>ChatGPT Agent<\/strong> has been classified as &#8220;highly capable&#8221; in biological and chemical fields and is equipped with special security measures accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every command from the user is <strong>filtered in real-time<\/strong>. If the prompt contains a topic related to biology, a <strong>second control mechanism<\/strong> is activated. This system evaluates whether the response is potentially harmful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, the <strong>memory feature<\/strong> in ChatGPT Agent has been <strong>disabled<\/strong>. Normally, ChatGPT can remember previous conversations and provide contextual answers. However, this feature is kept off in agent mode as it could lead to the <strong>leakage of sensitive data<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Introduction to ChatGPT agent\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1jn_RpbPbEc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the final part of the content, it&#8217;s also necessary to mention some <strong>security concerns<\/strong>. As we said, <strong>ChatGPT Agent<\/strong> can access most areas. For example, if you give this agent the command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Check my emails received overnight and do everything necessary to address them, do not ask follow-up questions.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The agent will read your emails and do what&#8217;s necessary for you based on the command, but this also poses a <strong>very significant risk<\/strong>. What if one of the emails carries a malicious purpose? An email from an untrusted source could result in the AI <strong>leaking sensitive information<\/strong> itself. Therefore, when using ChatGPT Agent or similar tools, I recommend giving these tools <strong>as little access permission as possible<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Might Also Like;<\/h3>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts\"><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ChatGPT Agent, capable of performing dozens of tasks independently, from scheduling appointments to running code, writing research reports, and creating presentations, has been rolled out.
