The AI model Opus 5.5 is being hailed as a significant step towards Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), particularly after an AI agent named Fig autonomously created a 27-minute documentary. While the AI handled scripting, generation, and editing, the human creator still had to provide executive production notes.
“Opus 5.5.5 does to me feel like a pretty significant step towards AGI, especially after my AI agent Fig made a 27 minute documentary about AI almost entirely on its own.”
“It scripted it. It generated the host. It edited it. It added the music.”
“Well, I still had to do the six hours of annoying back and forth notes work that any executive producer has to do on any project.”
