While AI can help us do stuff, AI agents are tools that actually do stuff for us. A new open-source project shows how an ChatGPT-powered agent could complete tasks for us using our iPhones. Rounak Jain developed the tool as part of an OpenAI hackathon in 2024. Starting today, the open-source project is available for free on GitHub. The tool is capable of turning complex commands into hands-free actions that require completing multiple steps across various apps. For example, sending a specific

That original breakthrough was the first time scientists had ever achieved “ignition”—a fusion reaction that generated
