We are entering the third phase of generative AI. First came the chatbots, followed by the assistants. Now we are beginning to see agents.
Four large language models (LLMs) were put through the Turing test. One model – OpenAI's GPT-4.5 – was deemed indistinguishable from a human more than 70% of the time.

As a result, another lesson that everyone – users of ChatGPT or not – will have to learn in the blockbuster technology’s second year is to be vigilant when it comes to digital media of all kinds.
