According to Jakub Pachocki and Sam Altman of OpenAI, the US-based AI company intends to introduce Automated AI Research by 2028. According to Pachocki, Chief Scientist of OpenAI, this enables AI models to generate technologies and scientific breakthroughs. The business thinks it is getting closer to having autonomous intelligence. The Automated AI Research Intern tools, which assist individuals speed up the research process, will be released by OpenAI in a few years. Additionally, Altman has stated that in the upcoming years, it would also introduce new AI hardware.
Automated AI Research Release Schedule of OpenAI
Altman and Pachocki presented a broad roadmap for Automated AI Research during a webcast on Tuesday. This would be a step toward the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI). About 11 months from today, in September 2026, OpenAI intends to offer a fully functional Automated AI Research Intern, and by March 2028, Automated AI Research tools. According to Pachoki, the AI company intends to "meaningfully accelerate" the research process using the intern tools.According to OpenAI, the Automated AI Research tool will be capable of producing research papers on a range of subjects on its own.  This would be a step toward "superintelligence" and artificial general intelligence (AGI), whereby deep learning will enable AI agents to create new technologies and make scientific discoveries.
 Additionally, the business intends to grow test time compute, which measures how long AI models take to consider a question, do research, and produce a result.  Additionally, according to the Chief Scientist at OpenAI, the current generation of AI models can do jobs that take five seconds, five minutes, and five hours.  He thinks this will gradually grow, as it has in the past, enabling AI models to perform jobs that are five months and five years in length.
Furthermore, OpenAI is creating gadgets that will be released within the next several years, according to Sam Altman.  With the aid of ChatGPT, OpenAI's hardware is said to enable users to "take AI anywhere."
 At the moment, users may add a query about a topic to Google's Gemini AI's Deep Research tool.  In exchange, the user will receive a thorough study plan from the AI agent that may be modified based on the use case.  Deep investigation, however, is unable to conduct independent topic investigation and produce scientific findings.  As previously stated, in order for it to start research, a human must submit a prompt.
In order to facilitate payments on ChatGPT, PayPal has implemented the Agentic Commerce Protocol
PayPal, a payment gateway provider, declared on Tuesday that it will be implementing the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) to enable ChatGPT users to make payments. AI agentic commerce is powered by OpenAI's new open standard protocol, the ACP standard, which was unveiled in September. Businesses, consumers, and AI chatbots may all utilize it to look for items and finish transactions.To make things easier, ChatGPT Instant Checkout now allows customers to pay with their cards via PayPal.  Currently, ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and free customers in the US may buy products straight from the chatbot windows thanks to OpenAI.  Etsy merchants have been onboarded by the firm, while Glossier, Skims, Spanx, and Vuori are among the Shopify retailers who will be able to join later.
 To facilitate agentic commerce in India, OpenAI has teamed up with RazorPay and the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).  However, the service has yet to roll out to ChatGPT customers in the nation.
