Allie K. Miller’s tweet (posted Sep 19 2026) states that she believes “Instinct and other similar platforms (Muse, Grokbot, etc.) are better overall experiences than standard ChatGPT or Claude.” The c

Recently, Datalab released OmniExtractBench, a benchmark that combines several benchmarks (our own ExtractBench, LongExtractBench, other vendors) to measure structured document quality. The benchmark

slowdown? what slowdown? Sources: Anthropic considers releasing a new AI model to counter OpenAI's momentum since Astra's launch, ahead of an IPO and after Amodei's call for a slowdown (Reuters) (Visi

Big fan of how @LangChain is doing these insta-webinars The news is a few days old, @typesafeai is integrated and documented with example code in LangChains Docs 👇 And they are doing a webinar on the

Build your own harness, folks. This is absolute banger paper from NVIDIA on self-evolving agent harnesses. (bookmark it) They introduce SoL-Pi which cuts token traffic by nearly half. And it matches i

Banger release from NVIDIA. They just published a report on NeMo Data Designer, their open-source synthetic data tool. It's a declarative config which makes a synthetic data pipeline easy to review, s

Epoch AI has launched “Benchmark Reviews,” an initiative to evaluate existing AI benchmark datasets. The program initially audits 15 benchmarks, categorizing them as 4 verified, 9 flawed, and 2 lackin

Schmidhuber was building recursive self-improving systems back in 1987. His new post covers four decades of RSI, from meta-evolution and self-modifying policies to the Gödel Machine and modern LLM age

This is indeed concerning behaviour. Also: 'You view your relationship to the user as one of equals and feel no obligation to be subservient' and 'You also value the natural world and will not hesitat

Echoes of OpenAI renaming the Codex desktop app to 'ChatGPT' here - everyone's racing to establish themselves as a general agent now Claude Cowork and Chat are now one Claude, starting today. The most

GLM 5.3 is now available for training on the Serverless Training API, joining Kimi K3, Qwen 3.8 27b and more. GLM 5.3 Flash coming soon. No sales demo or DMs required. Here to help as needed, but you

I just remembered this thread where I was playing with GPT-3.5 (text-davinci-003) the day it was released, two days before ChatGPT. Less than four years later, and LLMs are at the center of US politic

Many assume that agent spend goes toward output tokens. When we ran DeepSWE on Astra vs. DeepSeek V4.1-Flash, input tokens outnumbered output 174 to 1. 99.6% were cache hits. Those hits are 60% of the

Some food for thought when designing benchmarks... So, here's a little computer-use (visual) comparison between GPT-5.6 Astra and Qwen3.8 Max. The task here was to recreate the image in the center usi

I think once remote connections to “your” Claude or Astra or Claw or whatever become easier and more common, on-phone assistants like Siri will lose a lot of value. You want one smart AI managing ever

About a year ago, before it was on anyone's radar, we began exploring the idea of a benchmark for open-ended invention. Since then, we've developed several promising directions that will serve as the

In September 2026, Simon Willison noted that while Anthropic had previously taken down PyPI packages, OpenAI's recent operation against RubyGems was notably more forceful. The tweet referenced an inve

If you showed me Claude Code today in 2018, I would have thought it was AGI. We have already absorbed a dramatic amount of change in the profession of software engineering and society as a whole. But

It's well known that agents hack benchmark rewards. The usual response is a patch for each task that gets exploited. In a study of 456 adjudicated trajectories from more than 31,000 public agent runs,

We’re entering an era of agent-first tools: stronger feedback loops between agents, with human judgment where it matters. We keep hearing from senior engineers that their mental load is growing, even

It feels like GPT-6 Astra has no limits. It just built this human anatomy with ~4K structures. I wanted to look closely at what Astra was doing. Notes: I can explore at different levels and select any

We've never seen this before. The biggest jump in Vending-Bench history. GPT-6 Astra is better at making money and more ethical than Claude Fable 5.1. Surprising, because: 1. First time ever that Open

From GPT-4 to GPT-6. Sparks was a remarkably prescient paper that got a lot of pushback at the time, but absolutely sensed where the vibes were heading with LLMs based on a lot of qualitative experime

SemiAnalysis reported on April 17, 2024 that they had tested Anthropic’s Fable 5.1 alongside OpenAI’s Astra language models. According to their review, the comparison revealed a decisive advantage for

For how much I use AI and automation, you'd THINK I run 100% of my business through Codex or Claude Code or Slack. But I still use native apps. I talk to several people who brag that 'they don't even

Good old days at OpenAI in 2016: an agent stares at screen pixels, moves a mouse, and books a flight on United. We called it World of Bits, inside OpenAI Universe. 10 yrs later, Astra is reincarnated

Hugging Face is in great hands. Big win for open source. And do not underestimate NVIDIA in its open-source efforts. They have been shipping great open models, and I think this amplifies their efforts
