for a startup founder right now the paradox is that this may be the best & worst time to start a company.

the opportunity surface is basically infinite cuz ai keeps collapsing the cost of building, experimenting, & entering new markets. but the durability of any individual advantage is collapsing faster than ever too. anything obviously valuable gets copied, bundled, or commoditized incredibly fast. before you can even blink.

& worse now the big guys are shipping fast too so in many ways you’re kind of running downhill while meta, openai, anthropic, etc. are driving behind you even faster in a giant luxury bus with the high beams turned on to the max.

Opus 5.5 feels like chatting with a way smarter Opus 4.6.

I’m so happy.

[Command Code @CommandCodeAI]

We ran a test between the new DeepSeek V4 Flash, Kimi K3 and GLM 5.2.

3 open models. 1 prompt. /design command

Reviewed gameplay features, UX/UI and cost.
🔹 Kimi K3 → 9.5/10 · $0.0740
🔹 GLM 5.2 → 9/10 · $0.0480
🔹 DeepSeek V4 Flash → 7/10 · $0.0005

DeepSeek V4 Flash is ~150x cheaper, but rough around edges.
Kimi K3 and GLM 5.2 built the most polished gaming experience.

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.

AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.

Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.

The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

[AI at Meta @AIatMeta]

We’re sharing the next major milestone in our non-invasive brain-to-text decoder research: Brain2Qwerty v2.

Building on v1, which was published today in @Nature, Brain2Qwerty v2 is the highest-performing end-to-end pipeline capable of real-time sentence decoding from raw brain signals. It advances beyond character-level performance to decoding words and semantics, enabling accuracy for overall communication.

We believe this research has the potential to make a real difference for the millions of people who suffer from brain lesions or disorders that prevent them from communicating.

underrated. Anyone using claude code or codex daily should be utilizing software like this or similar, tmux is nice but this is very very useful.

[Jonathan Simon @JSimonDev]

@morganlinton Yep, in fact Fable Low is better than Opus High, pretty impressive!
