One Useful Thing · 7 months ago

The model completed a 14-page research paper analyzing crowdfunding data using original statistical methods and novel hypotheses with minimal guidance. The shift from AI as chatbot to AI as autonomous agent capable of planning, coding, and executing complex work with human oversight represents the most significant change since ChatGPT's release three years ago.
