The Operator’s Emergence: Risks, Opportunities, and a Shift in Human Roles
Sam Altman’s recent presentation of the Operator, which followed closely on the repeal of AI-related executive orders, raises profound questions about the interplay between technological evolution and policy. Coincidence or not, the timing highlights a broader narrative: how humanity is preparing—or failing to prepare—for the next stage of artificial intelligence.
The slide from the presentation demonstrates a striking finding: even in its first iteration, the Operator achieves results nearing human levels in tasks like web browsing (78.2% for humans vs. 58.1% for the Operator). This gap is narrowing rapidly, and soon we may see AI performance on par with humans across numerous domains.
As the Operator approaches human equivalence, questions arise about how many jobs-to-be-done (JTBD) it will take over. Tasks currently performed by humans—ranging from research to decision-making—are likely to shift towards automation. With that shift comes a pivotal redefinition of roles:
- Subject of Control: Humans as the designers, governors, and stewards of AI systems.
- Object of Control: Humans potentially being subject to systems driven by AI decisions and logic.
The balance of power between these roles becomes critical. Will humans retain agency in a world increasingly run by Operators, or will we become passive participants in an AI-driven ecosystem?
- Opportunities:
* Increased efficiency and productivity.
* Enhanced decision-making through data-driven insights.
* The ability to tackle complex challenges beyond human capabilities. - Risks:
* Job displacement and economic inequality.
* Overreliance on AI for critical tasks.
* Ethical dilemmas surrounding control, bias, and autonomy.
The question is no longer about whether AI like the Operator will change the way we work, but about how we navigate those changes. The repeal of policies regulating AI and the unveiling of this transformative technology signal a critical moment. Now more than ever, there’s a need for robust public discourse, ethical frameworks, and adaptive education systems to prepare society for the shift.
Let’s Discuss:
- How many JTBD will the Operator take over, and how soon?
- Are we prepared for the shifting roles of Subject and Object in management?
- What do you see as the biggest risk—or the biggest opportunity — in this context?

As Sam Altman said quite a while ago "the cost of intelligence is approaching zero"... and that's going to be a problem for societies that don't burden themselves with the issues of social fairness and extreme dislocations of historical capital overinvestments. The real opportunities will probably arise for those that would be the quickest to execute ideas and integrate with communities and ecosystems to gain first mover's advantage.

This is a great opportunity that gives an unprecedented level of service, because with the help of AI Operator (which no longer just answers prompts, but has some "hands") people will be able to receive services with a more individual approach (as from a person) in every aspect, starting from some kind of information search, ending with virtual assistants and teachers. Giving control and the ability to decide is overrated only because algorithms are not responsible for their decisions, as are their creators. As for me, this is just a new tool that helps each person improve, cheaper and faster :)
