Golden Finance reported that three people familiar with the matter revealed that OpenAI is working on an artificial intelligence to help senior software engineers handle more complex programming tasks. This is the company’s attempt to develop general artificial intelligence that can outperform humans in the most economically valuable tasks. A critical step for intelligence (AGI). According to a person who heard OpenAI CEO Sam Altman talk about the project, the effort is part of Altman's goal to automate software engineering, and he hopes to release a powerful new product that can handle Coding problems involving multiple steps designed to replicate the work of experienced programmers. Such products are often called “agents,” and Altman recently said such systems could “enter the workforce” as soon as this year. According to one employee, the agent could facilitate an internal tool OpenAI has developed to help its AI researchers work faster, including generating code for their experiments related to AI models. OpenAI has been preparing to test an early version of its advanced coding agent with a select group of potential customers as it tries to make the product useful and popular, one of the people said.
