As a researcher, I find myself reflecting on a recent study that suggests even roles like mine, those of scientists and medical professionals, may not be immune to the advancements in artificial intelligence (AI).
Over the last few months, Sam Altman and other notable AI experts have been emphasizing the concept of agentic AI. There are growing concerns about the impending rise of a powerful form of artificial intelligence, often referred to as “super AI,” which could disrupt labor markets in the near future, possibly even within the next year or so according to some extreme predictions. The most alarming aspect is that many governments and societies seem unprepared to handle the potential consequences.
According to a recent report by Axios, it seems that the occurrence of what’s been considered an impending (or unavoidable) situation could be nearer than many believe.
Following in the footsteps of figures such as Mark Zuckerberg from Meta and Salesforce’s CEO outlining plans to cut hiring and rely more on AI instead, Axios hints at some notable advancements made by OpenAI regarding their agentic AI system. Agentic AI refers to AI agents that are specialized for highly specific tasks rather than general ones. However, due to issues like hallucinations and errors, it has been challenging to use these beyond low-risk assignments so far. Yet, this might soon be a thing of the past.
The report indicates that Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, plans to reveal advanced AI agents akin to PhD-level intellect on January 30, 2025, during a private meeting with the U.S. government. If artificial intelligence evolves to the point where it can innovate and think creatively like a doctorate-holding human, it could take on more significant and crucial roles beyond its current capabilities.
As a researcher, I’m buzzing and apprehensive based on my sources’ claims about the staff’s reactions to recent advancements in private conversations, which have been shared with Axios reporters. The report doesn’t provide specific details about what these achievements entail, but it seems we won’t have to wait much longer before OpenAI makes this innovation public.
Microsoft is in the race to mainstream agentic super AI
Occasionally, distinguishing between excitement and reality can be tricky when discussing OpenAI, yet if the information presented is accurate, it might signal significant shifts in society over the coming years – potentially major ones.
Companies like Microsoft are aggressively working towards making advanced artificial general intelligence (AGI) widely available, with the expectation that these AIs could take over complex, costly, and time-consuming tasks that typically require human teams to manage effectively. Currently, Microsoft Azure provides businesses with agentic AI, but its current capabilities are somewhat limited, mainly used for customer support replacement and similar functions. To be frank, today’s AI has struggled to perform well in many areas where it is currently implemented.
Today, Microsoft Copilot integrated into Excel can provide suggestions to enhance your spreadsheets. In the future, you might be able to instruct Copilot to create a versatile spreadsheet for any intricate task without much effort. This concept could extend to developing custom software suites designed specifically for you, potentially altering the Windows interface or even modifying Xbox games dynamically. Imagine asking Copilit to generate a Minecraft map that functions like a terrifying survival horror game, which might not be too distant in the future. Our sources indicate that Microsoft is investigating the use of large language models to replace the 3D graphics pipeline entirely. For example, the AI could visualize a game such as Skyrim on your screen, responding to your controls, sparing you from having to download the game. This technology might resolve latency issues in current cloud gaming versions or delegate some video encoding to local NPU compute for a smoother experience.
Regardless, it’s well-known that elected leaders often struggle with technology, which could pose problems as technological advancements bring about significant societal change. The smart money will go to shareholders who invest wisely in the right tech companies, but failure to consider social implications could lead to disastrous consequences. The rapid pace of technological progress could lead us to an ideal society, but there’s also a real risk that AI could exploit the vulnerable. Our current economic system relies heavily on human labor and intervention. If automation eliminates jobs, we might soon discover what happens next.
No AI was used in the writing of this article, by the way.
