why aren’t we talking about the free labor these companies are getting because we have to walk around and find items ourselves? has to be in the TRILLIONS
I did a whole research project on this in grad school. Companies reap over $300 BILLION a year in free labor from customers using self-checkouts. If they’re not going to pay customers, they can shave some price.
Community note
No public data supports the $300B free labor claim from self-checkouts. BLS data put total wages for ~3.2M US cashiers at roughly $100B yearly. Self-checkout has replaced only a portion of those jobs.

Turns out GPT-5.6 Sol is actually SoTA on ARC-AGI-3.

Just took two setting changes. You just have to allow it to reason and work over multiple context windows with the help of our canonical compaction implementation.

this is the most ambitious, challenging and rewarding thing we are doing right now and if robotics is exciting to you, you should come join us. the team is incredible.
OpenAI Robotics is hiring, looking for exceptional full-stack hardware, ops, systems, and ML engineers to help us program and manufacture robots that are useful for society.

AI should be able to help people in the physical world. In the short term, we are focused on robots to support skilled workers to build our future infrastructure; in the long term, we imagine everyone having a personal robot doing anything they need.

Our world simulation research program, led by Aditya Ramesh (@model_mechanic), has evolved over the past year into OpenAI Robotics. Progress is rapid, and based on a foundation of co-design between robotics hardware and ML research.

If you love working hands-on across the robotics stack and want to build the future, please consider joining us. Send an email with your background and evidence of exceptional accomplishment to: robotics-recruiting@openai.com

robot intelligence is going to be interesting in a world that is increasingly inference flops pilled because you have a time constraint that naturally sets a hard limit on scaling on that axis

.@sama says @OpenAI is going all in on robotics because the US is in peril

The AI transcribed OpenAI as Open The Eye. I decided to leave it in as fitting

regardless of where you land on these issues, this specific line of reasoning is worth reflecting on for anyone in ai
@theo long time, we were planning to non-classified work only. We thought the DoW clearly needed an AI partner, and doing classified work is clearly much more complex. We have said no to previous deals in classified settings that Anthropic took.

We started talking with the DoW many months ago about our non-classified work.

This week things shifted into high gear on the classified side. We found the DoW to be flexible on what we needed, and we want to support them in their very important mission.

The reason for rushing is an attempt to de-escalate the situation. I think the current path things are on is dangerous for Anthropic, healthy competition, and the US. We negotiated to make sure similar terms would be offered to all other AI labs.

I know what it's like to feel backed into a corner, and I think it's worth some empathy to the DoW. They are on the a very dedicated group of people with, as I mentioned, an extremely important mission. I cannot imagine doing their work.

Our industry tells them "The technology we are building is going to be the high order bit in geopolitical conflict. China is rushing ahead. You are very behind."

And then we say

"But we won't help you, and we think you are kind of evil."

I don't think I'd react great in that situation.

I do not believe unelected leaders of private companies should have as much power as our democratically elected government. But I do think we need to help them.
