OpenAI 官方表示已达成自动研究实习生里程碑，即人类监督下能完成熟练研究者需要数天才能完成的明确任务。截至 8 月中旬，OpenAI 研究组织每个标准 8 小时人类工作日对应 3.1 个 agent 工作日，该比值衡量的是 agent 运行时长而非同等生产力。配图显示这一比值从 5 月的不足 1 倍升至 8 月的约 3.14 倍。
文中给出 agent 运行时长超过人类工作时长的比值变化，并说明了该比值只衡量运行时长而非同等生产力。
OpenAI just officially said it has reached its "automated research intern" milestone.
i.e. a human-supervised system able to complete well-defined tasks that would take a skilled researcher quite few days.
inside OpenAI research, agent runtime has already crossed human labor by a wide margin. 3.1-to-1 agent-to-human ratio
“In terms of a standard 8 hour workday, as of mid-August, in total, the research organization uses 3.1 agent-workdays of effort for every workday of human labor.”
That ratio measures agent runtime rather than equivalent productivity, but it captures how deeply parallel agent work has entered OpenAI research.
