Learning to cooperate, compete, and communicate

Multiagent environments where agents compete for resources are stepping stones on the path to AGI. Multiagent environments have two useful properties: first, there is a natural curriculum—the difficulty of the environment is determined by the skill of your competitors (and if you’re competing against clones of yourself, the environment exactly matches your skill level).

Ten years

OpenAI reflects on ten years of progress, from early research breakthroughs to widely used AI systems that reshaped what’s possible. We share lessons from the past decade and why we remain optimistic about building AGI that benefits all of humanity.

Defining AI Agents: A Compendium of Criteria, Metrics, and Benchmarks

The article "Defining AI Agents: A Compendium of Criteria, Metrics, and Benchmarks" surveys the lack of a standard definition for AI agents and organizes this ambiguity into five dimensions: environmental interaction, learning and adaptation, autonomy, goal‑directed behavior, and temporal coherence. It reviews how each dimension has been conceptualized in prior work and compiles the metrics, benchmarks, and evaluation frameworks used to assess them. The authors also introduce the Agent Compendium, a public digital resource that extends these evaluation methods, aiming to provide a common structure for evaluating and comparing agent capabilities across AI systems.

Agyn: An Open-Source Platform for AI Agents with Scalable On-Demand Execution, Agent Definition as a Code, and Zero-Trust Access

arXiv:2605. 27575v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As organizations move toward production deployments of AI agents, which execute non-deterministic workflows, maintain stateful sessions, and often operate with privileged access to internal services, the engineering challenge shifts from building individual agents to operating them at scale with proper isolation, governance, and security.
