Leon Furze<p>This post distills everything I've learned so far from testing OpenAI's Agents, including all available tools and code functions. It includes a 20 minute walkthrough video of a range of tasks. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ArtificialIntelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtificialIntelligence</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AIEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIEducation</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AIEdu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIEdu</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AIInEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIInEd</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AIInEdu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AIInEdu</span></a></p><p><a href="https://leonfurze.com/2025/07/21/everything-ive-learned-so-far-about-openais-agents/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">leonfurze.com/2025/07/21/every</span><span class="invisible">thing-ive-learned-so-far-about-openais-agents/</span></a></p>

Leon Furze<p>Don't fall for the hype. Despite what you've seen on social media, OpenAI's Agents don't work yet.

Leon Furze<p>AI in the Writing Process: A Problem of Purpose
When we value the product of writing more than the process, we’re bound to see students using GenAI to skip to the end.

Leon Furze<p>Lesson planning is a process, an action, a verb.

Leon Furze<p>Is GenAI a magical, miraculous substance that "democratises creativity"? Or is it just graceless slop?
