In the economy of the future, agents with different profiles will become the new standard. But this raises the question: How can we verify that an agent is safe and lives up to its description?

GPT-5.5 delivers this step up in intelligence without compromising on speed.
GPT-5.5 matches GPT-5.4 per-token latency in real-world serving, while performing better across nearly every evaluation we measured.
It also uses significantly fewer tokens to complete the same Codex tasks, making it more efficient as well as more capable.
Introducing GPT-5.5
A new class of intelligence for real work and powering agents, built to understand complex goals, use tools, check its work, and carry more tasks through to completion. It marks a new way of getting computer work done.
Now available in ChatGPT and Codex.
L-theanine is the only legal compound that changes your brainwaves on an EEG within 40 minutes of swallowing a capsule. And the mechanism is wild.
Your brain constantly balances two opposing neurotransmitters. Glutamate fires neurons. GABA calms them. L-theanine is a structural mimic of glutamate, close enough to cross the blood-brain barrier and sit on glutamate receptors. But instead of firing the neuron, it partially blocks the signal. Your excitatory system downshifts without you feeling sedated.
That downshift cascades. GABA levels rise. Serotonin and dopamine both increase. EEG studies at Oxford showed 200mg produces measurable alpha wave activity in the 8-13 Hz range across the parietal and occipital cortex. Alpha waves are the frequency your brain produces during meditation and flow states. Most people spend years trying to access that band through breathwork. A capsule gets there in 40 minutes.
The part that makes it genuinely useful: a 2016 study gave subjects L-theanine during a multitasking stressor. The placebo group's brains shifted into high-beta stress mode. The L-theanine group maintained alpha dominance under the same conditions. Their brains stayed in calm-focus while processing the same cognitive load.
Pair it with caffeine and the synergy gets even more interesting. Caffeine alone sharpens attention but triggers tremor, anxiety, and an eventual crash. L-theanine blocks the jitter pathway without touching the alertness pathway. You get the focus of coffee without the cortisol spike. One cup of green tea contains roughly 20mg of L-theanine, which is why tea feels different from coffee at equivalent caffeine doses.
200mg daily is the dose most studies use. That bottle is 100mg capsules. Two per day. Yes, it's worth the hype. One of the few supplements where the EEG data actually matches what people report feeling.
Sam Altman predicted in 2024 that a one-person billion-dollar company "would have been unimaginable without A.I., and now it will happen."
He just emailed the NYT saying he won a bet with tech CEO friends over when it would arrive, and that he "would like to meet the guy."
The guy: Matthew Gallagher, 41. Spent $20K and two months building a GLP-1 weight-loss telehealth company out of his living room in LA.
The stack: ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok writing code. Midjourney for images. Runway for video ads. ElevenLabs handling customer calls. Custom AI agents stitching it all together.

Karp, CEO of Palantir: “You may hate this, but there's one person protecting your rights to be a conspiracy theorist that actually has a seat at the table, and that person is me.”
Alex Karp rips into the Palantir conspiracy theorists:
“You're attacking the person who's protecting you— idiot.”
“You may hate this, but there's one person protecting your rights to be a conspiracy theorist that actually has a seat at the table, and that person is me.”
“You may not want to hear that truth, but it's fucking true.”
“Maybe do a little more reading before you pontificate on your absurd and obviously ill-formed and many times stupid opinions.”
“It's like fucking so stupid.”

Bill Maher: “We bombed Iran, and it’s going on now. If you expected me to say I hate it, I don’t. Sorry.”
“You cannot name one horrible thing that has happened in the Middle East in the last 50 years and not connect it to this fascist theocracy.”
