WE TRIED OPENAI'S NEW DEEP RESEARCH—HERE'S WHAT WE FOUND

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

OpenAI's 'deep research' is a new agentic research assistant that can compile full-blown research reports. Unlike previous versions of ChatGPT, it runs fully autonomously and works through many steps before returning an answer. The assistant can take anywhere from one to 30 minutes to research an answer depending on the complexity of the question - users can follow its work in real time. This article looks at how 'deep research' works, how well it works, and the impact the technology will have on research.
