Olas Accelerator team @Pett_AI reaches a new milestone ⭐️ The team's MVP scope and development timeline is now approved ✅ This means they're now moving full speed ahead on bringing the PettBro agent to Pearl Soon, you could be running your own digital AI fren on Pearl 👾🔥

One of the biggest surprises of the GPT-5 launch? The backlash over the loss of GPT-4o. Users demanded its return, and OpenAI brought it back. But it’s a stark reminder: if you don’t own your agent, it could disappear overnight.

OpenAI just did something it hasn’t in 6 years: released open weight models. Meet GPT-oss 120B and 20B: downloadable, fine-tunable, and locally runnable. Big context windows. Mixture of experts. Chain-of-thought reasoning. Will this change things for AI agents?
