3. OpenAI releases Responses API to let developers build computer-operating agents
Includes web search and extensive file search tools.
Computer-use feature similar to OpenAI’s Operator for task automation.
However, the CUA model is “not yet highly reliable for automating tasks on operating systems.”
Responses API will replace the existing Assistants API in H1 2026.
Agents SDK has also been released to “orchestrate” agents’ workflow.
Separately, Sam Altman said OpenAI trained a model with “good” creative writing skills
4. Anthropic’s annualized revenue hits $1.4B in Mar.
