Jacob Coxon (Anthropic researcher whol quit a few days back) during the New York City Council hearing on Monday.
"Automating AI research is now the primary goal of these companies. It's what they're really gunning for. At my last job, I was in some sense working to automate myself. When I was at OpenAI, we had milestones for an automated AI researcher around 2027 or 2028, and we are on track or beating these expectations. That's a matter of months from now, not decades, or even five years. Once AI research is automated, humans will be much further out of the loop than we are today.
And today is already not great. I can tell you firsthand that the majority of the code is now written by AI, and people do not check it that carefully anymore."
