Leaks hint at Operator-like tool in ChatGPT ahead of GPT-5 launch

As spotted by Tibor on X, the Android beta has strings like “click,” “drag,” “type,” and even “terminal feed,” which seem to suggest that ChatGPT could soon call a remote browser or sandboxed environment (Operator?). For those unaware, OpenAI already has Operator, which uses an AI agent to navigate a remote browser session and execute tasks for you. These references suggest

Bitcoin Whales Are Offloading Their Bags on Institutional Investors

Bitcoin enthusiasts have been perplexed lately. Why is the price so stagnant, even with all the hype created by guys like President Donald Trump?

Amazon Cuts 14″ Laptop Screen Extender to a Record Low, New 4.7-Star Portable Monitor Deal for 4th of July

Now, I’m a remote worker. And while that technically gives me the free reign to work from anywhere, for the longest time I found myself only ever working from my desk at home. Here at my desk I’ve got three large monitors giving me so much flexibility when I work to have multiple tabs open along with Slack, my email, and more.

You must supply significant upfront input, and every tool invocation consumes even more context than simply writing and running code. A quick experiment make

Building Linux kernel on macOS natively
