Join Julia McCoy into the groundbreaking launch of OpenAI’s Operator and Perplexity’s mobile assistant—two AI agents poised to transform how we interact with technology. Discover how these tools are ushering in a new era of automation, bypassing traditional APIs to control computers just like humans do.

Key Topics Covered:

• OpenAI’s Operator: A semi-autonomous agent that navigates browsers, books reservations, shops online, and performs SEO audits—no custom integrations needed.

• Real-World Applications: From grocery shopping on Instacart to analyzing websites and comparing products, see how AI agents handle complex tasks.

• Limitations & Safety: Current restrictions (US-only, $200/month), occasional human guidance needs, and safeguards like "human-in-the-loop" confirmations.

• The Business Impact: Why Bing’s value could surge, how AI desks might replace or 25x human employees, and First Movers’ upcoming marketplace for ready-to-deploy AI tools.

• Benchmarks & Future Vision: How Operator stacks up against human performance and what’s next for AI-driven productivity.
