🔧 OpenAI introduces new Agents SDK and Responses API to enhance developer capabilities for building AI agents.

  • The new Responses API combines features from two previous APIs (Chat Completions and Assistants API), with the latter scheduled to sunset in 2026, giving developers improved tools for automation and multi-step reasoning.

  • Three built-in tools are included: web search (with 90% accuracy on GPT-4o search preview), file search for corporate documents (at $0.10 per GB/month), and computer usage for screen viewing and clicking.

  • The Agents SDK enables workflow orchestration, agent team creation with hand-off functionality, and monitoring dashboards that track AI interactions—critical features for managing potential hallucinations in multi-agent systems.

🌐 Google launches new AI Mode for search, showcasing the next evolution of AI-powered information discovery.

  • Available to Google One AI Premium subscribers, AI Mode expands AI Overviews with advanced reasoning capabilities using a customized Gemini 2.0 that queries more websites simultaneously.

  • While AI Mode includes links to source websites, the current implementation shows fewer links than demonstrated in Google's promotional materials—raising questions about user click-through behavior.

  • Google has incorporated lessons from previous AI launches, with AI Mode declining to generate responses for politically sensitive topics and acknowledging when it has low confidence in answers.
