OPENAI
OpenAI has introduced a five-level system to track its progress in developing AI that can surpass human abilities.
This system aims to clarify their approach to AI safety and future goals.
During an All-hands meeting, OpenAI shared this classification with its employees.
The levels range from today’s conversational AI (Level 1) to AI capable of managing entire organisations (Level 5).
Currently, OpenAI considers itself a Level 1 but is nearing Level 2, termed “Reasoners”, which can perform problem-solving tasks on par with a highly educated human.
Here are the goals they’re working on:
Tracking AI progress from conversational to organisational capabilities.
Nearing Level 2, capable of human-like problem-solving.
Achieving AGI this decade.
The road to AGI
At the meeting, OpenAI showcased a research project involving GPT-4, demonstrating skills close to human reasoning.
They emphasised that testing new capabilities is a routine part of their work.
OpenAI’s goal is to achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI) within this decade, although such systems don’t yet exist.
A paper by Google DeepMind suggests a similar five-level framework, with tiers like “expert” and “superhuman”.
OpenAI's Level 3, "Agents," refers to AI systems capable of autonomous multi-day tasks, Level 4 involves creating innovations, and Level 5, "Organisations," represents the most advanced AI.
The levels are a work in progress, open to feedback from employees, investors, and the board, and may evolve over time.
We wonder what OpenAI would be like at the Final Boss level.
Do you think OpenAI’s five-level system will help achieve AGI? |

Leaders in AI
Ziad Obermeyer
Dr. Ziad Obermeyer, an associate professor at the University of California, Berkeley, and a practising emergency medicine physician, focuses on integrating AI with healthcare to improve decision-making and reduce disparities.
Trained in emergency medicine, Obermeyer experienced firsthand the stress of high-stakes decision-making, inspiring him to leverage AI to aid in areas like cardiac event detection and pain management in underserved communities. His research has highlighted and addressed racial biases in medical algorithms, leading to significant improvements in healthcare delivery.
Obermeyer also co-founded Dandelion Health, offering free access to health data for AI development, and established Nightingale Open Science to democratise health data for research. Optimistic about AI's future role in healthcare, he envisions profound transformations that are yet to be fully realised.
AI INFLUENCERS
Kenza Layli, an AI-generated Moroccan lifestyle influencer, has been crowned the first “Miss AI”.
Layli, created by Myriam Bessa of Phoenix AI, aims to promote diversity and inclusivity in the AI creator landscape.
She boasts over 200,000 Instagram followers, with all content generated by AI tools like DALL-E and ChatGPT.
The Miss AI contest, organised by Fanvue, saw entries from 1,500 AI programmers worldwide.
Judges assessed not just looks but also the use of AI tools and social media influence.
Layli, known for her love of red and motivational posts, stood out among 10 finalists, including runners-up Lalina Valina from France and Olivia C from Portugal.
Here’s what you should know:
Kenza Layli, an AI influencer, wins the first Miss AI contest.
Contest entries were judged on AI tool usage and social media influence.
Experts worry that AI-generated beauty standards may reinforce existing biases.
The future of digital diversity
While virtual influencers aren’t new, Miss AI contestants are unique as their creations involved no human intervention.
The development raises concerns about reinforcing homogenised beauty standards.
Dr Kerry McInerney from the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence highlighted that these AI tools often replicate existing biases rather than challenge them.
I wonder what her talent was in the talent show segment.
