OpenAI's o3 scored 87.5%, trouncing the previous best score for an artificial intelligence (AI) system of 55.5%. This is 'a genuine breakthrough', says AI researcher Francois Chollet, who created the test, called Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus for Artificial General Intelligence (ARC-AGI)1, in 2019 while working at Google, based in Mountain View, California. A high score on the test doesn't mean that AGI ' broadly defined as a computing system that can reason, plan and learn skills as well as humans can ' has been achieved, Chollet says, but o3 is 'absolutely' capable of reasoning and 'has quite substantial generalization power'. Researchers are bowled over by o3's performance across a variety of tests, or benchmarks, including the extremely difficult FrontierMath test, announced in...
