OpenAI Launches A General AI Agent

Remember when Iron Man told JARVIS to “run a diagnostic and book dinner”? That level of AI sidekick just stepped out of the Marvel universe and into your browser. OpenAI’s new ChatGPT agent is here, and yes, it takes orders. Catch a demo here.

The Breakdown

• One agent to rule them all
  OpenAI fused its web-browsing and research tools into a single super-agent inside ChatGPT. It can now search, plan, book, build, and code… all without switching apps.

• It thinks before it acts
  The agent runs inside a secure sandbox with a browser, code interpreter, and file access. It maps out a plan, asks your permission, and only then takes action.

• Now serving Pro users
  Available to ChatGPT Pro, Plus, and Team subscribers. Pro users get the biggest slice of the agent pie, with 400 actions a month.

• Serious brains, surprising restraint
  The agent doubled GPT-4’s scores on complex tasks but still can’t run wild. Memory is off by default, and OpenAI added strict guardrails to keep things safe.

Why this matters

This shift transforms ChatGPT from a smart answer machine into a proactive digital assistant, and it might just redefine how we delegate small tasks in our daily lives.

Trending Tools

Comet: The AI-native browser that moonlights as your overachieving executive assistant, sourcing leads, firing off emails, and updating spreadsheets while you sip your coffee.

Clueso: Records your workflows and magically turns them into slick training videos, complete with voiceover, captions, and documentation, like Loom and Scribe had a hyperactive baby.

Rox: The AI-powered sales platform that deploys virtual agent swarms for each account, planning outreach, researching prospects, updating your CRM, and serving up real-time insights so you can sell smarter.

Loveable Hits Unicorn Status

Another day, another AI startup becoming a unicorn. Less than a year after launch and fresh off a $200 million Series A, Lovable just hit a $1.8 billion valuation. It’s safe to say that vibe coding engines aren’t just a fad. They’re gaining mass adoption and mass investment.

The Breakdown

• Vibe coding takes off
  Lovable lets users build full-stack apps and websites using plain language. No dev skills required. It’s aimed squarely at non-technical creators.

• Rocket growth in months
  The platform has 2.3 million active users and 180,000 paying ones, generating $75 million in ARR. Back in February, it had only 30,000 paying users and $17 million in ARR.

• Lean, mean, startup machine
  All this momentum comes from a team of just 45 people, with backing from Accel, 20VC, Creandum, and angels from Klarna, Slack, and HubSpot.

• Europe’s AI moment
  Lovable is leading a new wave of AI-native startups from Europe. It’s not just about big models anymore, it’s about building actual tools people can use.

Why It Matters

Lovable shows that GenAI isn’t just a backend buzzword anymore. It’s quickly becoming the new frontend for software creation.
