Remembering theorizing, back in September,

why OpenAI might have done the surprise move of pausing creation of any new foundation models, for 2 whole years

= Just to kill off 95% of the potentially-competing AI startups that had sprung up

^^ As can be seen from the 2022 tweets, many startups at the time had been making just that kind of bet, that OpenAI would keep continuously making new state-of-the-art foundation models, just as it had with GPT-1, GPT-2, GPT-3, GPT-3.5, GPT-4

But no, suddenly OpenAI just stopped dead, for 2 whole years, right when many startups needed just 1 more advancement the most, to fix some very fixable problems for agents that GPT-4 had

Intentional or not, OpenAI’s surprise 2 year pause certainly did have that effect of wiping out tons of AI startups, who’d bet that OpenAI wouldn’t pause

Fortunately, with OpenAI finally releasing the o1 models, the AI agent boom is now back

— and for good reason, AI agent boom is going to be massive

Already technically possible for these AIs to do FAR more than people realize, far more of actually economically valuable work

Likely requiring a bunch of AI inferences per each task, unlike today’s typical AI tools that just do 1 AI step per command — but in any case, now entirely technically possible

Get ready
