GPT-5.2 is here and, while it’s cool to see an incremental release like this have such wild leaps on benches, I’m starting to get more concerned about corps rushing through safety checks to outpace each other.

Google‘s new image model is their Sora moment. Nano Banana Pro seemingly allows any copyrighted content and the image outputs are scary realistic with incredible details around fidelity (up to 4K!) and crisp text generation.

Suno is teasing its next generative music model (v5). Their short comings have been vocal quality and general fidelity and this sample seems to indicate some solid progress on both. Take a listen:

Interesting tidbit: ChatGPT’s study mode defaults to a 10th grade level. Does OpenAI consider this the statistical middle in terms of Chat users?

The spread of intelligence between the various GPT-5 models is pretty wild.

In response to user complaints last week, ChatGPT now has three modes for users:

- Auto
- Fast
- Thinking

Always use the Thinking mode. OpenAI increased the limits from 100/wk to 3,000/wk so there’s no real reason not to, and this is the version of the model that’s topping all the benchmarks.

Grok 2 and 3 will be open sourced... any day now... I'm sure it's coming...

GPT-5 tomorrow

o3 still the king of cost-per-intelligence, generally. Good showing by Grok 4 but it was overhyped (who expected anything different?)

This video (visuals + audio + dialogue) is 100% AI.

Google’s new Veo 3 is pretty insane and you can guarantee we’ll start seeing one-off AI shots all over video content in the near future.

Veo 3 is the best thing out of Google I/O

if you had told me this was a real video, I would have believed it

The new image gen in #ChatGPT can create sticker sets, emoji sets, etc, of whoever you want. It even often makes the background transparent for easy extraction.

The new model's image editing abilities are nuts

ChatGPT’s ability to recreate the Skyrim UI is both fascinating and concerning
