Ex-OpenAI Researcher Jerry Tworek Founds Core Automation to Build the World's Most Self-Running AI Lab

Jerry Tworek, the OpenAI researcher who led the development of GPT-4's code capabilities, has left to found Core Automation — a new AI lab with an explicitly self-referential mission: build the most automated AI research lab in the world. The lab's thesis is that AI systems capable of running their own research pipelines will produce scientific progress faster than human-directed labs, and that the organization that builds this capability first gains a compounding advantage in AI development.

Recursive Superintelligence Raises $500 Million Just Four Months After Founding on Self-Improving AI Thesis

A new AI startup called Recursive Superintelligence has raised $500 million at an undisclosed valuation just four months after its founding — making it one of the fastest early-stage raises in AI history and a clear signal that investors are willing to bet on the self-improvement thesis at scale.

DeepMind CEO Hassabis: AGI Will Hit Like Ten Industrial Revolutions Compressed Into a Single Decade

Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, delivered one of his most sweeping public statements yet on artificial general intelligence, telling an audience that AGI's arrival will compress what would historically have been centuries of industrial transformation into a single ten-year period — a claim that positions AGI not as a milestone but as a civilizational inflection point.

Mustafa Suleyman: AI Is on an Exponential Curve — and the Wall Isn't Coming

In a wide-ranging interview with MIT Technology Review, Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman argues that concerns about AI hitting a performance ceiling are based on a fundamental misreading of how AI progress works. The trajectory, he says, follows exponential rather than linear logic — and the people predicting a wall are making the same mistake forecasters have made about exponential systems for decades.

Databricks Co-Founder Wins Top Computing Prize — and Says AGI Is 'Already Here'

Matei Zaharia, co-founder of Databricks and creator of Apache Spark, has won the ACM Prize in Computing — one of the most prestigious awards in computer science. In interviews accompanying the announcement, Zaharia made a pointed argument: AGI is not a future event but a present condition, and the industry's endless debate about its arrival is obscuring more useful questions about what to do with the AI we already have.

OpenAI's C-Suite Is Reshuffling Again — AGI Deployment Chief Takes Leave, COO Gets New Role

OpenAI is reorganizing its senior leadership for the second time in six months. COO Brad Lightcap is moving to a newly created 'special projects' role, CEO of AGI Deployment Fidji Simo is taking a leave of absence, and CMO Kate Rouch is stepping back to focus on cancer treatment — a wave of executive changes arriving at a critical inflection point for the company.

OpenAI President Brockman: GPT Reasoning Models Have 'Line of Sight' to AGI — Debate Is Settled

Greg Brockman has made his most direct statement yet on AGI: OpenAI's GPT reasoning models represent a clear path to artificial general intelligence, he says, declaring the central debate among AI researchers "definitively answered." The claim is immediately contested by Yann LeCun and Demis Hassabis.

Meta's Hyperagents Don't Just Improve at Tasks — They Improve at Improving

Researchers at Meta and the University of British Columbia have built 'hyperagents' that can rewrite both the task-solving part of their code and the mechanism they use to improve. Unlike prior self-improving AI, the optimization loop itself becomes subject to optimization — breaking through the ceiling that has limited recursive self-improvement since the concept was first formalized.

Inside GPT-5: How OpenAI's New Reasoning Architecture Changes Everything

After months of speculation, OpenAI's GPT-5 arrives with a fundamentally different reasoning engine — one that treats multi-step problem solving as a first-class capability rather than an emergent behavior of scale.

Why AI Agents Still Fail at Long-Horizon Tasks — and What It Will Take to Fix Them

Agentic AI is the industry's biggest bet. But after two years of heavy investment, AI agents remain brittle outside narrow task definitions. The problem isn't capability — it's a fundamental architecture challenge that more compute alone won't solve.
