The Most Automated AI Lab Isn't Removing Humans | Jerry Tworek, Core Automation
Core Automation aims to maximize human agency, not remove humans from AI research loops
“most automated lab in the in the world”
Jerry Tworek of Core Automation (an ex-OpenAI founder) reframes 'most automated lab' to mean maximizing each researcher's agency and iteration speed rather than eliminating human oversight. The analogy to farming machinery underscores a human-amplification philosophy over full autonomy. This signals an emerging counter-narrative in AI lab design: automation-as-leverage rather than automation-as-replacement.
