🧠 OpenAI expects AGI by the end of 2026 OpenAI may have just put a date on AGI. Sam Altman reportedly said OpenAI is “not quite yet” at AGI but expects the company to have an internal system he would call AGI by the end of this year. OpenAI has apparently already hit its internal benchmark for an autonomous AI research intern. That system, reportedly known internally as Astra, can take an experimental idea, implement it in OpenAI’s codebase, run the experiment and return the results or take a research paper and perform work that could previously keep a human researcher busy for a week. Altman says Astra could enable “persistent agents” that work alongside people for extended periods. But he believes the biggest impact will be AI discovering genuinely new knowledge and inventing things that matter. @aipost 🏴
