AI already automates 16% of freelance tasks
CAIS updated the Remote Labor Index — a benchmark where AI agents complete real client projects: design, video, CAD, architecture, analytics, and web apps.
The work is reviewed by humans and compared against a professional deliverable that a paying client would accept.
New results:
• Claude Fable 5 — 16.1%
• Claude Opus 4.8 — 8.3%
• GPT-5.5 — 6.3%
Fable 5 is now the top model in RLI and almost 2x higher than Opus 4.8.
When the benchmark launched, the best result was 2.5%.
