Most youtube testers are finding Claude Sonnet 5.5 is beating OpenAI GPT 6.1 Sol. Claude Opus 5.5 is generally considered the best model right now. Brian WangBrian Wang is a Futurist Thought Leader and a popular Science blogger with 1 million readers per month. His blog Nextbigfuture.com is ranked #1 Science News Blog. It covers …
Anthropic’s confidential prospectus now lists agreements that could reach up to $84.5 billion for NVIDIA-double the earlier $45 billion figure. Most of these provisions remain cancelable with 90 days’ notice. This is likely up from $15 billion per year to $25-30 billion per year. Probably about $2.3 to $2.5 billion per month. The SpaceX slice …
AI leaders are talking about RSI ( recursive self improving AI) but not describing the levels of capability. People know something about self driving. Are we warning helping, autopilot, what level of automation. The AI researcher progression: Autocomplete helps me type. An intern executes my plan. A postdoc advances my project. A research leader finds …
This is the nextbigfuture GDP forecast scenario, not an IMF, Anthropic, or consensus forecast. It took the Anthropic economic forecasts for their base case and their bullish case. I then aligned national data for Taiwan and other countries as of this year. I then used OpenAI GPT 6 to build the scenario where AI productivity …
Jensen Huang says AGI has arrived. What can you actually do with it? I explain why I moved from $20 to $200 a month on AI—and how I’m using it to finish work I used to put off. We look at GPT-6 Astra, Claude Fable and Grok, the next compute expansion, and what increasingly capable …
GPT-6 Astra leads every comparable benchmark against Claude Fable 5.1, Claude Fable 5, and Claude Opus 5. Clear wins (large gaps) ARC-AGI-3: Astra 98.6% vs Opus 5 30.2% (high). No scores for the Fable models. FrontierMath Tier 4 (v2): Astra 97.6% vs Fable 5.1 / Fable 5 87.8% and Opus 5 73.2%. AutomationBench: Astra 41.4% …
OpenAI Astra is getting cybersecurity safeguards but will be released soon. It will like release before the end of the week. OpenAI said it might reach a critical level of cybersecurity capability. Astra meets the Critical cybersecurity capability threshold under the OpenAI Preparedness Framework. It is the first model OpenAI have designating at this level, …
Anthropic released FAble 5.1 and Mythos 5.1 and they continue to get better at agentic coding and scientific research. Fable 5.1 will cost an estimated 25% less than Fable 5 for typical workloads, wherever usage is billed by token. This is because we’re reducing our pricing on cache reads (where the model reads inputs that …
Semianalysis reports Mythos 2 is done training and Anthropic are not releasing the model. Anthropic’s August 2026 Risk Report describes an unreleased internal model it calls Model 2. It is more capable than Mythos 5, with no current plan to release it externally and the normal external-release evaluation suite not completed. They describe Model 2 …
Theo is a developer and founder heavily involved with agentic coding tools, T3 Code, Cursor integrations, and AI model testing. He reviews xAI’s newly released Grok 4.6. He notes xAI has accelerated dramatically since acquiring Cursor, moving from long dry spells to rapid back-to-back releases. Grok 4.6 It is not a new pre-train but a …
November 2026 and Feb 2027 projections by extrapolating the recent doubling rates. Doubling times are taking ~4 months for the amount of human work time AI can perform. Another ~1.5–2× (3 months) to ~2–4× (6 months) increase in effective time horizon is a reasonable baseline expectation if trends hold. This points toward reliable multi-day (or …
