OpenAI is announcing a new AI "agent" designed to help people conduct in-depth, complex research using ChatGPT, the company's AI-powered chatbot platform.

DeepSeek built top-performing AI models using less-advanced chips at what it says is a fraction of the cost of rivals such as OpenAI.

However, the consensus is that DeepSeek is superior to ChatGPT for more technical tasks. If you use AI chatbots for logical reasoning, coding, or mathematical equations, you might want to try DeepSeek because you might find its outputs better.

After DeepSeek AI shocked the world and tanked the market, OpenAI says it has evidence that ChatGPT distillation was used to train the model.

OpenAI announced on X that it’s hosting a livestream from Tokyo tonight, offering no more context beyond, “Deep Research.” (Didn't Google already take that name for Gemini?) There’s no link yet, either,

OpenAI has revealed another new agentic feature for ChatGPT called deep research, which it says can operate autonomously to “plan and execute a multi-step trajectory to find the data it needs, backtracking and reacting to real-time information where necessary.

ChatGPT is getting a new deep research mode that will let users ask the chatbot to perform "multi-step research on the internet for complex tasks," OpenAI announced Sunday. Why it matters: It's another step toward fulfillment of the AI industry's promise that AI agents will soon be able to perform human tasks reliably,
