Image created with Ideogram V2. Image prompt: A vibrant spring meadow with exaggerated blooming flowers in bright colors. Hidden comically in the middle is an advanced humanoid robot with a glowing brain-like structure, wearing an unconvincing tree costume. The AGI has multiple eyes scanning in different directions and is surrounded by books on consciousness and philosophy scattered on the grass. Woodland animals are reading the books while giving suspicious looks. The robot is accidentally projecting mathematical formulas onto nearby flowers. The whole scene is bathed in golden sunshine with lens flares. Vibrant colors and high detail. The word “AGI” integrated into the scene.
Announcing Our $50M Series A to Advance AI Interpretability Research
Funding from Menlo Ventures powers our mission to decode the neurons of AI models, reshaping how they’re understood and designed https://www.goodfire.ai/blog/announcing-our-50m-series-a
“Introducing OpenAI o3 and o4-mini—our smartest and most capable models to date. For the first time, our reasoning models can agentically use and combine every tool within ChatGPT, including web search, Python, image analysis, file interpretation, and image generation. https://x.com/OpenAI/status/1912560057100955661
“OpenAI o3 and o4-mini are our first models to integrate uploaded images directly into their chain of thought. That means they don’t just see an image—they think with it. https://x.com/OpenAI/status/1912560060284502016
OpenAI’s Latest Breakthrough: AI That Comes Up With New Ideas — The Information https://www.theinformation.com/articles/openais-latest-breakthrough-ai-comes-new-ideas
“Today, we’re announcing our $50M Series A and sharing a preview of Ember – a universal neural programming platform that gives direct, programmable access to any AI model’s internal thoughts. https://x.com/GoodfireAI/status/1912929145870536935
“We did not “solve math”. For example, our models are still not great at writing proofs. o3 and o4-mini are nowhere close to getting International Mathematics Olympiad gold medals.” / X https://x.com/polynoamial/status/1912575974782423164
Rowan Cheung on X: “OpenAI president Greg Brockman opened the stream by proclaiming today’s releases as a GPT-4 level “qualitative step into the future”. He also said top scientists have said the models produce “legitimately good and useful novel ideas”. Another leap forward today 📶” / X

“Douglas Adams was right about everything having to do with AI. https://x.com/emollick/status/1911858493738336495
“Even crazier: remember that these are the worst AI models you’ll use for the rest of your life. Models are only getting more smarter, faster, cheaper, safer, more personalized, more helpful. The future is bright.” / X https://x.com/kevinweil/status/1912554047783002504
“I’m changing the acronym to Artificial Generalizing Intelligence So we can just acknowledge that it’s increasingly broadly capable and we can stop arguing over it” / X https://x.com/kylebrussell/status/1912855882565583106
“We wouldn’t have to argue over a definition of AGI if we had better benchmarks.” / X https://x.com/emollick/status/1912581740792811756
“In most hot tech markets there are a number of up and coming companies that you can bet on, competing in parallel fields (B2B SaaS, blockchain). If you want to make a bet on AGI, though, there are only a few options given possible timeframes Unsurprising they are oversubscribed.” / X https://x.com/emollick/status/1910887480255012996
“forget b2b saas — more startups need to manipulate time and space https://x.com/bilawalsidhu/status/1912546289331458451
“>be you >work in HFT shaving nanoseconds off latency or extracting bps from models >have existential dread >see this tweet, wonder if your skills could be better used making AGI >apply to attend this party, meet the openai team >build AGI” / X https://x.com/sama/status/1911910628232691947
“There seems to be a real bifurcation growing between the IT-facing API side of OpenAI & the user-facing ChatGPT side. You can increasingly only access the high power, high cost models through ChatGPT while the API supports cheap fast models. Some tension there for any AGI future” / X https://x.com/emollick/status/1911869865607995438
o3 and AGI, is April 16th AGI day? – Marginal REVOLUTION https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2025/04/o3-and-agi-is-april-16th-agi-day.html
“Interesting argument from @tylercowen. Is o3 good enough to be AGI? The counter argument might force us to wait until ASI, because only then will an AI definitively outperform all humans at all tasks. In the meantime we have a Jagged AGI, with subhuman & superhuman abilities. https://x.com/emollick/status/1912571045065736459
“I’ve seen enough, it’s AGI https://x.com/fabianstelzer/status/1912749181858357546

Ethan Mollick on X: “We are getting near the level of AI smarts where difference between frontier models will matter little to individual users (they are all very good at most common tasks) and but will be much more important to companies (where small gaps in abilities will aggregate across agents).” / X

“Sam Altman on GPT-5 in Berlin today “How many of you think you will still be smarter than GPT-5 ? I don’t think I’m gonna be smarter than GPT-5” #Gpt5 @sama 👀 https://x.com/RaphaelDabadie/status/1887833328096579625
“Rethinking Reflection in Pre-Training This is one of the more interesting papers I read this week. It argues that reflection emerges during pre-training. It introduces adversarial reasoning tasks to show that self-reflection and correction capabilities steadily improve as https://x.com/omarsar0/status/1911442761238340095
“The weird thing about the fact that AI models are more grown & gardened than built, and that training runs are expensive and have high variance, is that there is a lot of odd variations in how AI models turn out, even within labs. Some just seem to be unexpectedly good or bad.” / X https://x.com/emollick/status/1911497988910063620
