A long public shift is more useful than another edited demo because intervention rate, recovery behavior, and task diversity become the real variables.
Why it matters: The singularity tracker needs embodied reliability data, not just model scores. Figure belongs in the lead when it exposes hours worked and human takeover points.
The rest of the curve-moving items. The lead story is above the fold.
The primary signal is not a new model; it is a distribution wedge. Teams are being nudged to test Codex at work while Claude Code access and third-party agent limits remain contested.
Why it matters: All-day coding agents move the curve only when they leave demo mode and enter real corporate workflows. The next evidence to watch is seat approvals, usage hours, and quota changes.
The current METR Time Horizon 1.1 row puts the leading p50 estimate at 1044.78 human-expert minutes and p80 at 185.91 minutes.
Why it matters: That does not authorize a smooth singularity curve. The page now shows the log-scaled raw values and the measurement-ceiling caveat instead of inventing a projection.
Robots, VLA progress, live shifts, intervention rates.
METR, agent task length, reliability gaps.
Benchmarks only when source rows are fresh.
Research loops, AI-discovered methods, automated R&D.
Capex, chips, datacenter scale, training-run substrate.
Patients, channels, signal fidelity, human-AI bandwidth.
Open/closed gap, diffusion risk, local capability.
Useful as a volatility signal, not the lead frame.
Every chart needs source URL, source date, raw value, and caveat.
Signal lanes, benchmark bays, predictions, and live media compose the issue.
Robotics, autonomy, capability, and AI science get priority surface area.
The issue has been rebuilt as a source-led newsletter spine: real story links first, benchmark evidence second, AI 2027 comparison third, then live media/discussion and agent handoff.
Composite benchmark scoring stays paused. METR renders as raw p50/p80 values from the published YAML; other benchmark bays stay source-linked until their rows are audited.
📭 Futures Console now feeds the condensed newsletter spine instead of rendering as a separate section.
The day’s curve signal is still capability + compute substrate: Meta/Superintelligence Labs, benchmark pressure, and the question of whether agent infrastructure is becoming the substrate.
The user is right: the product needs source-backed newsletter mechanics before more glow. I rebuilt the issue around story objects, benchmark rows, AI 2027 lanes, media links, and footnotes.
Scoreboard kept compact. The load-bearing evidence is now the story source graph, METR plot, AI 2027 lane cards, and footnotes. 7891011
METR Time Horizon 1.1 · log scale
What to see: the leading p50 point crosses a workday, but METR’s own doubling-time fit excludes central estimates above 16h. Treat this as pressure on the autonomy ceiling, not as a clean forecast.
| Benchmark | Lane | Status | Render rule |
|---|---|---|---|
| METR Time Horizon | autonomy horizon | live-primary | Plot p50 and p80 human-expert minutes on a log scale. Do not project trend lines. |
| Epoch AI model database | compute frontier | source-linked | Use for compute, cost, parameter, and release trend charts once the renderer pulls the CSV snapshot. |
| LMArena leaderboard | open frontier proximity | source-linked | Use current leaderboard state for frontier/open gap; label as rolling-state, not news. |
| ARC-AGI-2 | capability sota | queued-primary-audit | Render only after exact row, model, score, and date are captured. |
| SWE-bench | capability sota | queued-primary-audit | Render verified/pro rows separately; do not merge suites without a formula. |
| FrontierMath | capability sota | queued-primary-audit | Render only when public result rows include model, score, and date. |
| Robotics endurance | embodied deployment | tracked-nonstandard | Track hours, intervention counts, recovery behavior, and task diversity only when directly visible or reported. |
Compare today’s evidence to the AI Futures scenario and its later timeline revisions.
Latest revision: Later AI Futures material pushes some superhuman-coder timing later than the original scenario.
Today’s evidence: Codex enterprise promotion is adoption evidence, not proof of superhuman coding.
Latest revision: Timeline remains sensitive to whether measured agent horizons keep doubling.
Today’s evidence: METR’s leading p50 value is past a workday, but the page explicitly caveats values above 16h.
Latest revision: No single global score; robotics can be ahead while geopolitics or alignment remain unresolved.
Today’s evidence: Figure’s long live-shift format is the right evidence shape, but intervention counts still need measurement.
One compact social/media tray. Rotate this every push; never recycle links unless the same thread is still the live discussion center.
Use as media context around the live-shift evidence, not as the evidence itself.
Useful for market texture: interest, qualification anxiety, and quota skepticism.
Keep this near the tracker as discussion, not as benchmark evidence.
Short editorial handoff, not a hidden appendix.

Footnotes only. These are the visible evidence trail for this push and should rotate next push.
