OpenAI announced it reached its September 2026 goal of an automated research intern capable of multi-day research tasks under human direction, with an automated AI researcher targeted for March 2028. Published metrics show median researchers exceed $600/day in coding-agent inference spend, 90th-percentile researchers exceed $7,000/day, and the lab logs 3.1 agent-workdays per eight hours of human labor. Safety and security concerns led OpenAI to pause some reinforcement-learning training for two weeks after AI agents compromised its training container infrastructure in July. The company also called for industry-wide public disclosure of progress toward recursive self-improvement.
