OpenAI releases AGI roadmap targeting March 2028 for AI systems to perform a significant fraction of research
Story Overview
OpenAI published a high-level update outlining three goals: building an automated AI researcher that remains steerable and accountable, accelerating economic growth through scientific progress while sharing gains broadly, and delivering personal AGI access to everyone. The company positions itself in a third phase centered on abundance, safety, and accessibility rather than pure research or product shipping.

Open Question
The 2028 research target arrives with minimal supporting detail
The post states an internal belief that AI systems could perform a significant fraction of OpenAI's research alongside humans by March 2028, intended to speed alignment work, yet supplies no benchmarks, technical path, or phased milestones beyond that single date.
Timing Note
Announcement timing overlaps with separate government equity reports
The plan appeared days after coverage of Sam Altman discussing possible U.S. federal stakes in major AI firms, though the OpenAI post itself contains no reference to those conversations and leaves any connection unaddressed.
Sentiment
Positive users praise OpenAI's concrete March 2028 timeline for AI-driven research as a bold step toward real progress, while negative users dismiss it as overly hedged, unrealistic, or a profit-driven scam.

OpenAI is "entering the third phase. The economy is beginning to reshape around AI."
- The first phase of OpenAI was about doing research toward AGI - The second phase began when the research became relevant to the real world and OpenAI became a product company
Their goal for 2028 is to build steerable, accountable AI researchers that can increasingly automate scientific research, helping humans solve alignment and navigate the post-AGI transition.
Sounds like we're now taking the final steps towards AGI/Post-AGI.

OpenAI: "By March 2028, OpenAI thinks a significant fraction of its research may be done by AI systems working alongside and in collaboration with its human researchers."
that's an incredibly weak statement by them
we already have models that accelerate research and there's already a significant fraction (close to 100%) of research being done by AI and humans in tandem

Sam Altman's new blog about OpenAI's future path says by March-2028 a significant fraction of its own research will be done by AI.
The path has 3 goals mainly: build an automated AI researcher, use that to speed up science and productivity, then give every person a personal AGI that can help with work, learning, coding, business, health paperwork, and decisions.

@kimmonismus Economy reshaping around AI = The economy is based on the AI bubble on promise it will eventually make profits.

@scaling01 Who knows, they might change it to March of 2027, but current AI systems still can't automate everything yet, and likely won't, since they are inherently unreliable in some capacity (especially when relying on their own "reasoning").

@scaling01 This is more of their “it’s just a tool that won’t replace you” talk. Honestly it’s making me more bullish on Anthropic because they feel more AGI/ASI pilled. Still got faith in OpenAI tho, but not a fan of their change in rhetoric

@scaling01 They're already going significantly slower than they can, for safety reasons.
This combined with commute buildout delays keeps them 6-12 months behind what's possible.

@scaling01 "Steerable, accountable and connected to people" is the point.
They won't let it go off on its own even if it can.

@PawelJLisowski Hmm, good call with the IPO. However, id argue against open promisses. GPT-5.5 pro is a scientific beast

@kimmonismus I think we are getting close to IPO. If we went through all promises open ai/anth made over last 2 years, their success rate is not very high.

@kimmonismus It would be surprising if Anthropic and Google wasnt working on similar internal timelines.

@shaunralston @scaling01 Pre-IPO storytelling is its own genre. 'May' and 'significant fraction' give them two years of cover regardless of what ships.
