Predicting 2027: OpenAI's Unleashed AI Progress and AGI-Level Humanoid Robotics
imjustnewatai · x · 2026-08-28
The author predicts that 2027 will see a burst of AI progress, with several privately trained models arriving almost simultaneously, potentially powering OpenAI's future humanoids.
Key arguments include Sam Altman's comments on OpenAI's robotics roadmap (prioritizing data center construction and self-replicating robots), job listings mentioning exabyte-scale training data for "AGI-level robotics," and TIME's observation of Astra agents. Astra is described as capable of long-term operation, cross-software collaboration, and potentially "inventing new things in a way that matters."
