Significant Gravitas open-sourced AutoGPT, letting GPT-4 decompose a goal, keep memory, call tools and loop until done. It went viral on GitHub, popularised the idea of giving it a target and walking away, and exposed cost, reliability and loss-of-control problems.
Curator's note: Cross-checked against the GitHub repository and its release history; the project was open-sourced in March 2023.

All six styles come from one template and can be compared word for word. [引用日期], Accessed, urldate and Y2 all carry this page's build date, 2026-11-03 — a static page is an immutable snapshot, so substitute the date you actually consulted it. The address in every style is the archive's canonical page: this English page translates the same snapshot, and the work keeps its name, so one record cites both. For one-click copying use the same entry in the timeline, which takes the day you opened it. Expand the other styles before printing.
