Sam Altman predicts AI agents will join the workforce by 2025

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman predicts that AI agents will begin working autonomously by 2025. These agents will be capable of making decisions and completing tasks with little human input, potentially transforming company productivity. In a recent blog post, Altman discussed OpenAI's progress toward artificial general intelligence (AGI) and the development of superintelligent AI systems. He noted that these advancements could significantly enhance scientific discovery and innovation. OpenAI plans to release an AI agent called 'Operator' this month, which will automate tasks like coding and travel booking. This follows similar initiatives from Microsoft and Anthropic, which are also developing tools for task automation.
