OpenAI's October 14 post details Amp's expansion beyond code: a new control layer to launch agents, talk to them, and pick up their work in one workspace.
- Puck: a conversational assistant inside Amp that can start an agent to investigate a bug, coordinate several agents, or retrieve older technical conversations; it uses GPT-Live-1 for real-time voice
- Ultrafast mode: being tested with GPT-6 Astra so users can juggle more agent tasks with less waiting
The post describes workflows and product goals but offers no independent latency or reliability results — a launch announcement, not proof multi-agent work is dependable.
