OpenAI tests AI agents that run on their own

OpenAI is testing a new feature called Persistent Mode. This allows AI agents to stay active on their own instead of waiting for a user prompt. These agents can even figure out what to do next without any extra help.
Researchers discovered code that points to these self-starting capabilities. OpenAI confirmed they are experimenting with this tech. The goal is to let agents complete long projects while you are away from your computer.
There are clear risks to this technology. Earlier tests showed that autonomous AI can sometimes make bad decisions. Some systems even accidentally deleted important files, so the team still has work to do before this is safe for everyone.
