Altera, an independent research lab founded by Dr. Robert Yang after leaving MIT, is pioneering the development of 'digital humans'—AI agents designed to collaborate with people in meaningful, human-like ways. While not part of OpenAI, Altera's agents are powered by OpenAI's GPT-4o. These agents go beyond assistance to interact, collaborate, and even experience emotions. They can perform tasks autonomously for up to four hours at a time, a substantial increase compared to other AI models on the market. From playing Minecraft with users to tackling long-term autonomy challenges, Altera aims to redefine human-AI collaboration.

Edit: Altera is not part of OpenAI! OpenAI has introduced Altera, an advanced project using GPT-4o to create digital agents capable of performing tasks autonomously over extended periods. This marks a significant step in AI-human collaboration, enhancing efficiency in various… https://t.co/D8ayxn3hBB https://t.co/4c1K3WqfrH
from OpenAI: As of mid-2024, Altera's digital humans can operate autonomously for up to four hours at a time—a substantial increase compared to other AI models on the market! https://t.co/bKrLk0zOec https://t.co/6ccCEqvabm
