Assessment

Why?

Strongest counted support: The excerpt says 3.1 days of machine work for every day human researchers put in themselves. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The Next Web reports OpenAI's figure of 3.1 days of machine work per human day.

Review gaps: independence reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Leans supported.

• OpenAI reported 3.1 equivalent eight-hour agent-workdays per human researcher workday by mid-August 2026, alongside continued human oversight.

  Directly supports the reported ratio; the metric is agent runtime/workdays, not independently measured tripling of research output.

• The report directly records the 3.1-to-1 research-agent productivity figure and attributes it to OpenAI’s internal data, while making clear it is an internal claim rather than an independently audited measurement.

Qualifications

• The passage matches 3.1 days of machine work per human day, but names neither OpenAI nor research agents.

  From An OpenAI slowdown, argued by the man running research Read 2026-09-19 Relevance DIRECT Steps 0 Counted

  Ratio matches; reporter and research-agent framing are absent from the passage.

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
