OpenAI has introduced a new model called ChatGPT Agent that combines reasoning and action to handle more complex tasks. This model can respond to challenging queries that require both understanding and action, thereby expanding AI's ability to not only process information but also actively respond to it. ChatGPT Agent demonstrates how AI can increasingly take on more autonomous and versatile tasks in everyday applications.

Summer Camp 2025: Techniques and Ethics of Generative AI. How is generative AI changing our educational and research landscape? Summer Camp 2025 at JLU Giessen will offer space for exchange, reflection, and practice from September 8–26. During two weeks of courses (basic & advanced), technical fundamentals, prompt strategies, and application scenarios will be taught, as well as ethical questions regarding transparency, responsibility, and social impact. In addition to the courses, participants can look forward to a diverse supporting program with lectures, discussion rounds, and mini-workshops on current topics related to AI.
