OpenAI's New Agent Builder

Hi everyone,

OpenAI's unveiling of their Agent Builder is pretty exciting, aiming to simplify workflow automation and challenge big players like Zapier. It's a clear step forward to making automation accessible for more developers and businesses.

Meanwhile, Deloitte's headache with AI slip-ups in reports reminds us all that even the big guys aren't immune to AI's quirks. It's a timely lesson on the importance of reviewing AI outputs thoroughly.

Also, we have a new partner: Wing Virtual Assistant 

And check out Typeless.

Let's get right into it.

OpenAI Agent Builder Challenges Zapier and N8n

Intelligence: OpenAI previewed a visual Agent Builder ahead of DevDay, positioning it to compete with workflow automation tools while simplifying how teams design, test, and deploy complex agent workflows.

• The canvas offers drag and drop flow building with templates such as customer service bots, data enrichment, Q and A agents, and document comparison, plus logic nodes like if-else and loops, and connectors like MCP, user approvals, guardrails, file search, and data transformation.

• Target users include developers, solution architects, and businesses already on OpenAI APIs to lower the barrier to production-ready agents and accelerate prototyping for non-experts.

• Flows are created in a dedicated UI with a sidebar of components, live preview and testing modes, and publishing for broader use, making iteration and operationalization easier across domains.

• The product directly targets tools like n8n and Zapier, betting on deep integration with OpenAI models, ease of use, and prebuilt guardrails and security as key differentiators.

• It fits OpenAI’s shift from pure model APIs to a broader ecosystem, enabling self-serve agent creation while keeping tight integration with OpenAI infrastructure and controls.

Deloitte Refunds Government After AI Errors in DEWR Review Using OpenAI

Intelligence: Deloitte will repay the final installment on a $440,000 government report after acknowledging it used generative AI and errors were found, while DEWR says the findings and recommendations are unchanged.

• DEWR confirmed Deloitte will return the final payment and will publish the transaction once completed.

• Commissioned in December 2024, the review examined the targeted compliance framework and its IT system that automates welfare penalties, finding weak traceability to legislation, system defects, and a system driven by punitive assumptions of non-compliance.

• The report was first published on 4 July and reuploaded after media coverage in August flagged nonexistent references and citations.

• Academic Dr. Christopher Rudge said the errors reflected AI hallucinations and suggested the original claims lacked a specific evidentiary source.

• The updated report discloses use of an Azure OpenAI GPT 4o tool chain licensed by DEWR and hosted on DEWR Azure, while Deloitte did not blame AI for the errors and stands by the findings.

• DEWR says only references and footnotes were corrected with no change to recommendations, and a Labor senator said Deloitte has a human intelligence prob
