Before telling my wife I need to buy 8 more GPUs I practiced on an AI version of her first. She pushed back hard. I got cut off. I said "yeah" and she kept going. I paused mid sentence and she waited. Felt way too real. Built with Fish Audio's Live 3 It listens and talks at the same time. The practice call went somewhat okey. Now time to do it live. Wish me luck.
🤝 Paid partnership
Introducing @FishAudio Live 3: a full-duplex voice model that listens, says "mm-hmm," and knows when to shut up. Enterprise? Book a demo for your free custom agent: s.fish.audio/vxhgs6 Reply with your use case - we'll build it free for the first 1,000 people.

paying for a server just to wait on a reply doesn't sense your agent now has a bedtime Inkbox gives agents their own email, phone, iMessage and WhatsApp, and starting today it hosts them too: > it sleeps when idle, so you don't pay for downtime > it wakes up the second someone replies sleeping when idle is underrated
🤝 Paid partnership
We raised $5.3M to give AI agents a computer to run on, with their own email, phone, iMessage, and WhatsApp Led by @peakxvpartners, with @rauchg, @sternhenri, @jefrankle, @cjc, and @daniel_levine Today we’re launching hosted agents on @inkbox_ai. Your agent runs next to its communication channels, so it never misses a reply. It sleeps when idle, so you don’t pay for downtime. In the 4 months since our YC launch, we’ve processed millions of messages for AI agents.

Frontier performance at a fraction of the compute. Today at @i14labs we’re launching Sugar Glider, our new family of LLM architectures! Join the waitlist for early access: i14.ai Sugar Glider delivers a new Pareto frontier: extreme memory and compute efficiency whilst maintaining frontier performance, even for large models (tested up to ~1T params). O(1) per token inference → ✅ Fixed size KV cache → ✅ Frontier long-context retrieval quality → ✅ 1 billion token long context retrieval → ☑️** (**100% -> single needle @ 1B-token context, 90.5% multikey 1 @ 1B-token context.) How did we do it? Turns out a few decades in the trenches of human memory and language model research is a pretty handy starting point to solve the “intelligence vs efficiency vs memory” conundrum. ... and just for something extra, we’ve been converting some of the most powerful and popular open-weight models to O(1) inference and fixed memory, with each conversion taking just hours :) Tune in via our waitlist for early model access i14.ai More results dropping soon!

Claude just dropped fable 5.2 and i asked it to build a japanese floating island same price as 5.1. better model. in the video: - the benchmarks - the official launch - the floating island demo i built with it watch till the end
Introducing Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2, designed to tackle the most daunting technical challenges. They’re capable collaborators on ambitious projects in many fields, and show improvements in areas like coding, reasoning, and vision.

Replying to @cradrrat
We have dumped JAX/SGLang and rewritten the entire RL and inference stack from scratch in C/C++, which took some extra time. Training (aka pre-training) is done. Lot of cleanup was needed on the SFT data to get that mostly right. Now, 4.8 is in RL and the evals are starting to climb. We will do a soft rollout to Bot users later this week and see how it goes. Grok 4.8 will bear no resemblance to 4.7 (thankfully). It is not yet incredible, but, this time, the foundations are built right, so I expect it to evolve to be something special.

Claude Mythos 5.2 is out. Somewhere a junior dev just updated his LinkedIn to "AI orchestrator"

Your Mac's clipboard remembers one thing. So I built Pocket 👇 Hover the notch → everything you copied drops down: text, links, screenshots, files. Search even reads the text inside screenshots. Free + open source: github.com/minutechreview/po…

Your AI assistant has access to Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, Notion, and a dozen other tools. Yet it still struggles to complete simple tasks. Why? More integrations don't automatically mean better results. Here's how to make your assistant more useful

claude code got a lot better in october anthropic shipped mods, and the desktop app finally handles a bunch of sessions at once. i can have one fixing bugs and another writing tests while i just check what they did you can also see what's eating your usage now, which i really needed they keep shipping and the tool keeps getting better every month
October was a big month for Claude Code 🍁 We shipped mods, made the desktop app better at running lots of sessions side by side, gave you more insight into where your usage goes, and plenty more. Here's a recap!

OpenAI keeps copying Anthropic , and it's getting hard to ignore 👀 > Codex and ChatGPT now share one usage limit (rolling out fully in December). Claude Code and Claude Chat have always worked that way. > Canvas launched a few months after Claude's Artifacts. > Codex CLI dropped a couple of months after Claude Code. > OpenAI added full MCP support, a standard Anthropic created and open-sourced. Not hating. Competition is good for us. But the pattern is getting hard to miss. Are we watching OpenAI copy Anthropic's playbook, or is this just where the whole industry is heading?
Does OpenAI not know that the usage limits are one of the main reasons people still use ChatGPT? A lot of people fw GPT because of the long limits and image generation. I'm sorry OpenAI, but this is going to go sideways for you guys.

The only reason I still use ChatGPT is because the usage limits for Chat and image generation are excellent. If those get worse after the Codex merger, there won't be many reasons left for me to keep using it.

We've raised the max request size for Messages and Token Counting on the Claude API from 32 MB to 128 MB. Image-heavy requests like long computer-use sessions and big PDFs were previously hitting 32 MB with plenty of context window left. Now you get ~4x more room.

What if you could do more on X than just scroll and post? With @bot, @xAI, and Cursor, you can research topics, automate tasks, and build projects. Are you already using any of these tools, or would you consider trying them? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

🚨 A "gemini-3.8-flash-router" slug has reportedly been sitting in Antigravity's metadata for a couple of days. I'm increasingly convinced the next Flash ships as a router, sending easy prompts down a cheap path and hard ones to a heavier model. Maybe it's just an internal test name, but right now that's the cheapest way for Google to look fast and smart at the same time.
Gemini 4 Flash might be in grey testing for some users.. And its pretty fast while being extremely close in capabilities with Gemini 4 Argon.. could be even better when its released.. Carbon is looking pretty good too from what we're seeing on arena.. I'm not getting any more outputs of it since yesterday.. so a new checkpoint might be coming soon..

Today, I'm launching llmdojo.dev: - The hands-on way to learn AI engineering: LLMs, RAG, agents, evals and inference. - 50+ interactive labs. Tweak tokenizers, attention, embeddings and KV caches live. - Train a neural network in your browser and watch it learn. - Build agentic workflows with tool calls, memory, guardrails and bounded autonomy. - Ship RAG that works: chunking, hybrid search, reranking, and LLM-as-a-judge evals. - Production AI: model routing, fallbacks, quantization, caching and cost per request. - 490+ interview questions, reported from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, Mistral and 50+ more. - Every answer is cited from papers and books, or measured on real models.
