OfirPress jokes he needs 9 agents to supervise agents — 'if this is AGI, we need AGGI'
OfirPress · x · 2026-10-13
Princeton researcher OfirPress quipped that despite claims AGI will replace programmers, he now runs 3 main coding agents, plus 4 agents to check the first 3, plus 2 summarizer agents telling him what decisions to make — "agi wen?"
He later clarified it was a joke: he 'only' runs 3 main agents, and if this multi-layer agent-supervising-agent setup counts as AGI, "I need aggi or agggi or something."
