METR published a paper measuring AI agent autonomy progress, showing it has doubled every 7 months since 2019 (GPT-2). They introduced a new metric, the 50%-task-completion time horizon, where models like Claude 3.7 Sonnet achieve 50% success in about 50 minutes. Projections estimate 1 day autonomy by 2028 and 1 month autonomy by late 2029. Meanwhile, Nvidia released Cosmos-Transfer1 for conditional world generation and GR00T-N1-2B, an open foundation model for humanoid robot reasoning with 2B parameters. Canopy Labs introduced Orpheus 3B, a high-quality text-to-speech model with zero-shot voice cloning and low latency. Meta reportedly delayed Llama-4 release due to performance issues. Microsoft launched Phi-4-multimodal.

OpenAI released GPT-4.5 as a research preview, highlighting its deep world knowledge, improved understanding of user intent, and a 128,000 token context window. It is noted for excelling in writing, creative tasks, image understanding, and data extraction but is not a reasoning model. Microsoft unveiled Phi-4 Multimodal and Phi-4 Mini, open-source models integrating text, vision, and speech/audio, with strong performance in math and coding tasks. Cohere released Command R7B Arabic, an open-weights model optimized for Arabic language capabilities targeting enterprises in the MENA region. The community is exploring the impact of larger models on creative writing, intent understanding, and world knowledge, with GPT-4.5 expected to be a basis for GPT-5.
