Listen "[Linkpost] “METR: Measuring AI Ability to Complete Long Tasks” by Zach Stein-Perlman"
Episode Synopsis
This is a link post. Summary: We propose measuring AI performance in terms of the length of tasks AI agents can complete. We show that this metric has been consistently exponentially increasing over the past 6 years, with a doubling time of around 7 months. Extrapolating this trend predicts that, in under a decade, we will see AI agents that can independently complete a large fraction of software tasks that currently take humans days or weeks.
