OpenAI donates Open Responses, its spec for a common LLM API, to the Agentic AI Foundation
OpenAI has contributed its Open Responses API specification to the Agentic AI Foundation (part of the Linux Foundation), aiming to create a common standard for LLM APIs. The specification standardizes how developers interact with different language models by defining consistent formats for core building blocks like messages and function calls, reducing the need for provider-specific integrations. Databricks and Vercel have already implemented the standard.
Key points
- Standardizes LLM API primitives across providers
- Reduces developer friction switching between models
- Databricks and Vercel already implementing
