New paper using ActivityWatch! 🥳

[OpenBMB @OpenBMB]

Revolutionizing the Human-Agent Interaction Paradigm & From Reactive Agent to Proactive Agent!
We (Tsinghua NLP & OpenBMB) just introduced a groundbreaking new generation of Proactive Agent interactions! 🤖
Even the most advanced AI agents like ChatGPT are still traditional Reactive Agents, requiring explicit user instructions to perform tasks. But now, Our new Proactive Agent changes the game. These agents aren’t just instruction followers—they're smart assistants with "insight" 🧠. They actively observe, predict human needs, and solve problems before being asked. 🌟
