OpenAI's Workspace Agents launch is framed as more significant than GPT-5.5 for enterprise users. The feature lets organizations build AI agents once, share them across teams, and govern access — addressing the fragmentation problem where multiple teams independently build overlapping AI workflows with no shared management layer. Powered by Codex and available in research preview for ChatGPT Business accounts, it connects to Slack, Salesforce, Gmail, and other tools via connectors. Meanwhile, Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.7 launch faced user backlash over usage limits and perceived regressions. GPT-5.5 and ChatGPT Images 2.0 also shipped, with OpenAI positioning itself as building infrastructure for agentic AI rather than just improving models.
