Standard Model Limitations
Without additional 'Tools' configuration, the AI Agent functions just like a standard ChatGPT. It doesn't have direct access to your personal data (such as Google Calendar or Notion) unless you manually connect those apps via a Make.com workflow.
The Importance of Model Selection
The list of models available in Make.com depends entirely on the provider you choose. Ensure your OpenAI account has sufficient credits to use high-end models like GPT-4.
