OpenAI's Clever Scale for AI Brilliance

OpenAI has rolled out a nifty new system to measure how smart its AI systems are.


Picture a scale from Level 1 to Level 5, where today’s chatbots like ChatGPT sit at Level 1. But OpenAI claims it’s inching closer to Level 2, which means solving problems like a PhD holder. Fancy that!


Level 3 is where things get interesting—AI agents that can act on your behalf. Level 4? AI that can create new innovations. And Level 5? That’s the holy grail: AI performing the work of entire organisations. OpenAI calls this artificial general intelligence (AGI), a system surpassing humans in most economically valuable tasks.


OpenAI’s mission revolves around achieving AGI. If another project gets close to AGI first, OpenAI promises to help rather than compete. This new scale could be the yardstick for when AGI is officially reached.

But hold your horses! AGI is still a distant dream, requiring astronomical computing power. Experts, including OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, predict we’re “five years, give or take” from AGI.

This new grading scale was revealed just after OpenAI announced a partnership with Los Alamos National Laboratory. They’re exploring how advanced AI models like GPT-4o can safely assist in bioscientific research. The goal? To test GPT-4o’s capabilities and set safety standards for future AI models.


Interestingly, OpenAI recently dissolved its safety team, raising eyebrows. Some worry about the implications if OpenAI reaches AGI without a robust safety culture.


While OpenAI hasn’t spilled the beans on how it assigns models to these levels, the scale aims to provide a clear definition of progress. OpenAI CTO Mira Murati and CEO Sam Altman have hinted at exciting advancements, suggesting the models are getting smarter by the day.


So, keep an eye on OpenAI’s progress. The future of AI is unfolding, and it’s going to be a thrilling ride!
