Computer use is becoming faster than humans, and cheaper too
OpenAI's Ari Weinstein: "We've gotten computer use now to a place where it's faster than the average human at using a computer, and I think we're getting really close to a place where it is superhuman."
And it already costs a fraction of human labor per hour of back-office work:
- Computer-use agent: $6-8
- Offshore outsourced talent: ~$10
- US back-office labor: $30-45
