One of the things I’m most excited about this year is building agents that can work productively for hours, days, or weeks. Coding agents are starting to become very competent at this, but what about computer use agents? Our new benchmark, Odysseys (co-led with Lawrence Jang) is a set of 200 new tasks derived from real world browsing behavior that measure long horizon web navigation capabilities (potentially up to hours of web browsing work). Interestingly, we find that frontier CUAs are already surprisingly good at working productively for up to an hour on these tasks, but there’s a lot of work to be done in making them even more efficient. Like every other AI researcher, my real dream is to open a cafe once we solve ASI. So, here’s Opus 4.6 doing some market research for me ("I want to do market research on the most popular cafes in Singapore. Analyse the menus of the top 10 cafes in Singapore (by Google reviews/ratings), and make sure we include at least 1 from the North/South/East/West/Central regions of Singapore. Keep the relevant pages of each cafe open, and summarise their pricing, menu offerings, unique selling points, making sure to reference which tab is opened for each cafe. For each cafe, also help me figure out how long it would take to get to it from Tampines MRT, and include this in your final summary."). I was very impressed to see Opus 4.6 complete this task after working for 52 mins, satisfying all 7 rubrics that corresponded to this task. It provided a very nice markdown summary at the end that gave me all the information I asked for!

Computer use agents are slow and brittle. The fix isn’t just stronger models, but also deploying them as multi-agent systems. MACU is a general Multi-Agent Computer Use framework that consistently lifts success rates by 3.4-25.5% and is up to 1.5x faster on long-horizon tasks.🧵

LLM agents have demonstrated promise in their ability to automate computer tasks, but face challenges with multi-step reasoning and planning. Towards addressing this, we propose an inference-time tree search algorithm for LLM agents to explicitly perform exploration and multi-step planning in interactive web environments. It is the first tree search algorithm for LLM agents that shows effectiveness on realistic and complex web environments: on the challenging VisualWebArena benchmark, applying our search algorithm on top of a GPT-4o agent yields a 39.7% relative increase in success rate compared to the same baseline without search, setting a state-of-the-art success rate of 26.4%. On WebArena, search also yields a 28.0% relative improvement over a baseline agent, setting a competitive success rate of 19.2%.
