🧠 OpenAI introduces AGI tracking system

OpenAI has developed a five-level system to track progress toward human-level AI.

The Details 📊

  • System ranges from Level 1 (current AI) to Level 5 (AI that can run organizations)

  • OpenAI believes it's currently at Level 1, nearing Level 2 ("Reasoners")

  • Level 2 AI can match doctorate-level problem-solving without external tools

  • Level 3 ("Agents") can perform multi-day tasks on user's behalf

  • Level 4 AI can generate new innovations

  • Level 5 ("Organizations") represents AI capable of running entire organizations

  • Framework developed by OpenAI executives and senior leaders

  • Company plans to share the system with investors and gather feedback

  • OpenAI demonstrated a GPT-4 project showing human-like reasoning skills

  • CEO Sam Altman previously predicted AGI could be achieved this decade

  • System resembles frameworks proposed by other organizations like Google DeepMind

Why It Matters: This framework provides a tangible way to measure progress towards AGI, potentially influencing industry standards and public understanding of AI advancement. It also offers insights into OpenAI's vision for the future of AI development.
