Summary: OpenAI launches AgentKit for building AI agents

Why It Matters: OpenAI is moving from simple chat models to a full platform for building and managing complex AI agents. This makes it much easier for companies to build automated workflows without needing to piece together different software tools.

What Changed:

• Launched AgentKit, a new suite of tools for developers to build and deploy AI agents.
• Added Agent Builder, a visual tool for creating multi-agent workflows with drag-and-drop nodes.
• Introduced ChatKit to help developers quickly embed customizable chat interfaces into their own apps.
• Released Connector Registry to help businesses manage data connections like Google Drive and Microsoft Teams in one place.
• Updated Evals with new features like trace grading and automated prompt optimization to measure agent performance.
• Added reinforcement fine-tuning (RFT) for custom tool calls and custom graders on specific models.
