In 2024, the ARC-AGI benchmark pinpointed the arrival of "AI reasoning systems" and drove early explanatory analysis
In 2025, ARC-AGI is being used to demonstrate "refinement loops"
While we still need new ideas to achieve AGI, ARC has catalyzed several now open-source refinement approaches that will play a role in further developing AI reasoning in 2026
