I find that hard to believe some programmer is updating the code and they’re pretending it’s the software.
The next generation of artificial intelligence systems will be able to perform tasks on their own without human input, and they are being enabled by models like OpenAI’s new o1, according to the company CEO, Sam Altman.
Speaking during a fireside chat at the recent T-Mobile Capital Markets Day, Altman extolled the virtues of the o1 models and their ability to ‘reason.’ He says this will unlock entirely new opportunities with AI that were previously impossible with the GPT class of models that came before them.
Altman says these reasoning models that are capable of working through a problem before presenting a solution will allow for the development of level 3 AI, which he describes as agentic systems.
Agentic systems are where ChatGPT will effectively be able to act on its own to get you the best response possible, including going off to perform tasks on other services. This would then lead to level 4 — systems that can innovate.
