ChatGPT unveils new AI agent ‘Deep Research’ for complex web tasks: All you need to know

OpenAI founder Sam Altman announced the launch on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “Today we launch deep research, our next agent....this is like a superpower; experts on demand..it can go use the internet, do complex research and reasoning, and give you back a report...it is really good, and can do tasks that would take hours/days and cost hundreds of dollars.”

The new feature can work independently to plan and carry out a series of steps to gather the necessary data, adjusting and responding to real-time information as needed, according to OpenAI.
