Reid Hoffman said he used a specific tool daily to better understand how AI products could be “workers in the future”.
The co -founder and investor of LinkedIn said that he had “at least” a daily life invites with the in -depth research tool of Openai, an agentic tool to automate complex internet research in several stages. He also said that there were many companies that built “solid” offers in the race to make AI agents.
Hoffman, who withdrew as director of Openai in 2023, citing conflicts of potential interests with his other investments in AI, was questioned about the startup during an interview on Bloomberg Television on Friday.
He said that he used in -depth research once a day and that it “gives you the objective of the amplification that we will obtain with these products as workers in the future”.
The rise of agentic AI, which can act independently in the name of a person and make decisions without human intervention, has fueled speculation on the way and the moment when AI could replace human workers.
A group of researchers from Carnegie Mellon led a virtual simulation designed to test how AI agents Price in professional scenarios of the real world. They found that the most efficient model had finished less than a quarter of all tasks.
“Although agents can be used to speed up some of the tasks that human workers do, they probably do not replace all tasks,” said Graham Neubig, IT teacher at CMU and one of the researchers, previously said Bi.
Hoffman, who co -founded Manas AI, said he saw no clear leader in the race to develop an agency AI, saying that there were “a group of people who do very strong things” and “not only Openai, Anthropic, Microsoft, Google”.
Bloomberg interviewer Ed Ludlow told Hoffman that he was talking more and more to AI in voice mode, that he called “a psychological thing that, as a consumer, you have to overcome”.
