Jerry Tworek says the era of evals is ending
AGI House’s Frontier Notes features Jerry Tworek, who spent seven years at OpenAI working on research behind Codex and reinforcement learning for reasoning.
He later became VP of Research and is now CEO of CoreAutoAI, a company building toward automated AI research. The interview is framed around Tworek’s argument that the “era of evals is done,” suggesting the field needs to move beyond benchmark-centric thinking.
