OpenAI seems poised to unveil an innovative AI tool that could independently execute tasks by taking command of your device.

Reports indicate that this tool, tentatively named “Operator,” is approaching its launch. *TechCrunch* recently emphasized this news, referencing inputs from Tibor Blaho, a software engineer recognized for revealing updates related to AI. Blaho mentioned on X (formerly Twitter) that he found concealed options in the ChatGPT macOS application, enabling users to set shortcuts for commands such as “Toggle Operator” and “Force Quit Operator.”

Earlier reports from *The Information* noted that OpenAI was aiming for January as a possible launch period for Operator. The initial rollout is anticipated to start with a research preview and a developer tool, although the precise release date still remains uncertain.

The premise of Operator is to enhance user convenience by automatically managing tasks on their behalf. This could encompass activities like securing flight bookings or coding. Nevertheless, the tool’s capacity to operate independently raises apprehensions regarding the potential mistakes it could make while performing these tasks.

Whether Operator turns out to be a revolutionary convenience or a source of unforeseen troubles, its launch appears to be just around the corner.
