ChatGPT has Awakened, OpenAI Scientists Urge AI to Co-Shape the Future


At the 2026 Bund Conference, Ant Group CEO Han Xinyi said the 'ChatGPT moment' for agent commerce has arrived. Agents are moving from capability demos to real transactions, becoming the core entry linking user demand and supply. After ChatGPT's natural language leap, agents now deepen the business loop.....
OpenAI has launched the full-duplex speech model GPT-Live-1, which uses a single-model architecture to replace the traditional 'speech-to-text - reasoning - text-to-speech' cascade process, significantly reducing latency and enabling human-like smooth interaction. The model is now available via API for developers, and it can handle complex dialogue scenarios such as pauses, interruptions, and topic shifts more robustly.
OpenAI has opened the GPT-Live-1 voice model API for developers, allowing integration of ChatGPT's voice features into applications to build full-duplex voice assistants that support real-time speech and natural handling of interruptions and pauses. The voice front-end costs 0.05 dollars per minute, while the back-end complex reasoning model is billed separately.
OpenAI officially launched the Agents API, encapsulating Codex harness into a managed REST interface. The core endpoint is POST /v1/agents/sessions, which requires the OpenAI-Beta header. OpenAI is responsible for sessions, orchestration, context compression, and recovery, while the application side provides tools and execution environments. The documentation outlines four core concepts and management capabilities: Agent (model + instructions + tools + MCP Server), Environment, etc.
At the 9th September Bund Conference in Shanghai, Han Xinyi, CEO of Ant Group, stated that the 'ChatGPT moment' for intelligent agent business has arrived. The core shift is from 'capability demonstration' to 'real transactions'. Intelligent agents are no longer just Q&A generation tools, but new commercial entry points that understand user needs, connect supply, and drive transactions. User demand is shifting from consultation to transactions.
