As artificial intelligence, particularly generative AI, gains traction in the business world after years of promise, a new generation of AI is starting to emerge - at least in the hype cycle. It's not agentic AI, it's not robotic AI, or physical AI. It is artificial general intelligence, or AGI. Two years ago, fear of AGI run amok prompted 1,000 tech leaders and AI researchers to sign an open letter calling for a pause on new AI model rollouts.

A few months before the 2025 International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) in July, a three-person team at OpenAI made a long bet that they could use the competition's brutally tough problems to train an artificial intelligence model to think on its own for hours so that it was capable of writing math proofs. Their goal wasn't simply to create an AI that could do complex math but one that could evaluate ambiguity and nuanceskills AIs will need if they are to someday take on many challenging real-world tasks.

OpenAI's new GPT-5 model represents a significant step toward artificial general intelligence, yet it lacks crucial elements like autonomous continuous learning, limiting its full potential.

My belief is it is 100% crap. The best at any job will remain. The best software developer, the one that really knows architecture, knows technology, and so on will stay—for a while.

Imagine a fat, frustrating, overbearing, overcunning boss, and world domination. While it commands humans left and right. For 'our own benefit'. Yeah. Right.

Meta has been in talks to invest billions into Scale AI as part of a deal that would bring Scale AI employees to Meta.
