“Greg Burnham co-authored the Epoch Automation Reports evaluating frontier and open-weight models on real work tasks.”
“Provided helpful comments on METR acceleration research.”
State-of-the-art AI models now solve over 40% of FrontierMath benchmark problems, up from 2% at launch, while Google DeepMind's Aletheia achieved publishable PhD-level mathematics autonomously, forcing the need for new, harder benchmarks.
