Sam Altman announced OpenAI's central organizing goal: a fully automated AI research intern by September 2026 running on hundreds of thousands of GPUs, escalating to a full multi-agent research lab by March 2028. Chief scientist Jakub Pachocki described it as "a whole research lab in a data center." This consolidates OpenAI's reasoning, agents, and interpretability work under a single capability target and signals that internal resource allocation is now organized around this milestone.
