A blog post from Sam Altman, the cofounder and CEO of OpenAI, may be helping drive AI stocks higher today. In the post, he says:

“We are now confident we know how to build AGI as we have traditionally understood it. We believe that, in 2025, we may see the first AI agents “join the workforce” and materially change the output of companies. We continue to believe that iteratively putting great tools in the hands of people leads to great, broadly-distributed outcomes.”

Agents are seen as a key theme for 2025 that could help keep momentum in AI stocks running red-hot. In addition, the post is more ‘evidence’ that new AI models like OpenAI’s o3 that use ‘reasoning’ are a genuine breakthrough that are still in their infancy.
