This is very interesting. I think a lot of people may be quick to overlook the value of such simulators when thinking about AI agents at the extremes. (Either they're not good enough to trust or they're so good they'll leapfrog over any economic value here.)
My own experience makes me lean toward thinking that the truth is somewhere in the middle in this situation, and that simulators like these will be valuable. I've been experimenting a lot with computer use on my website Bingeclock, passing through different prompts along the lines of "make a movie marathon based on X." The newest agents are consistently impressive, while also being consistently imperfect in surprising and interesting ways.
Whether or not all the labs are already running this kind of thing internally for themselves, you would know better than I. But it's an idea that seems very useful nonetheless. Congratulations on the launch!
