OpenAI has released an AI agent called Operator, which allows you to control your computer and perform tasks. Ukrainian startup Awesomic presented this idea to Sam Altman in the fall of 2024, which was called GPT-a (for "assistant").
This was stated by Roman Sevastyanov, co-founder and CEO of Awesomic.
Awesomic is a Ukrainian startup that created a platform that connects proven designers with customers. It was founded in 2020 by Ukrainians Roman Sevastyanov and Anastasia Pavlyshyna. In 2024, the startup opened an office in San Francisco.
During the OpenAI hackathon, which took place in the fall of 2024, Roman Sevastyanov and startup developer Oleksandr Dashko created an AI assistant that can perform multiple tasks with just one prompt, according to the Awesomic website. The assistant was shown in a video.
“This was an event where attendees used o1’s powerful preview version of ChatGPT to create innovative solutions. And yes, OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman, was there too,” the startup wrote.
You provide simple prompts like “Send an email,” “Request a call,” or “Create a task in Awesomic,” and the AI assistant will do everything for you. This program intercepts the instruction, passes it on to ChatGPT, and the AI not only plans the next steps, but also executes them.
dev.ua contacted Roman Sevastyanov for details and is currently awaiting a response.
