Surely, it is worth taking a few moments to reflect on the claim from OpenAI that we’ve reached ‘human-level reasoning’ in their o1 series of AI models? I scrutinize Altman’s dev day comments (picking out 4 highlights) and cover the most recent papers and analysis of o1’s capabilities. Then, what the colossal new valuation means for OpenAI and the context you might not has realized. We’ll look further down the ‘Levels of AGI’ chart, cover a NotebookLM update, and end with a powerful question over whether we should, ultimately, be aiming to automate OpenAI.
