@elonmusk @cradrrat Rewriting the full RL and inference stack in C/C++ mid-race is a huge bet. If it pays off, iteration speed on 4.9 and 5 should be way faster than on 4.8.

[Claude @claudeai]

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.

@Teknium I know the Hermes mobile app is still in TestFlight, but one ask: unify avatars across desktop + mobile. The animated orb/blob I make on mobile shows up as a still picture on desktop, and desktop can't make one at all. One avatar everywhere would be 🔥

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@thsottiaux Yes, a lot of people buy in an instant. Not everyone has $100 to give a month, but needs more than $20 plan’s usage.

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@alexandr_wang Thank you for everything. You're making the switch from Grokbot to Muse a lot better. I feel like this will help the many others that are thinking of switching as well.

@kimmonismus Open weights keep forcing closed labs to ship. If Qwen 4 actually lands today, the bar for GPT-6.2 just moved from marketing to product.

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

Also, when you have a whole community clearly upset, so it's not just one person, they're just ignoring us instead of addressing the problem.

Stuff like this makes a product fail even though Grok Bot is the best functionality wise, if you can't manage or communicate well, you're setting yourself up for failure.

@melvindvivas 70% on day 2
This is making me consider switching to Muse or Hermes again. Mind you, it's $30, when other AI subs are $20 and way more generous/fair with usage limits. We shouldn't have to pay more for less.

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@boardyai Tbf it will prob be better than what they have now lmao

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

Cat Wu helped build Claude Code, left for Cursor, went back to Anthropic, and is now joining OpenAI to lead Core Products. The AI talent war isn't about researchers anymore. It's about the people who know how to ship agents people actually use.

[cat @_catwu]

Some news: I’m joining OpenAI to lead product management for Core Products!

I have a lot of respect for OpenAI for showing the world that scaling works, for bringing AI to over a billion people, and for believing great products are core to the mission.

I’m excited to work with @thsottiaux, an incredible PM team, and everyone across OpenAI. Together, we’ll build agents that have your back and your team’s, and keep you in control, so you get more time for the people and work you love.

Lots to learn, and lots to build. Please keep your feedback coming!

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@kimmonismus The wild part is she's seen Claude Code, Cursor, and OpenAI from the inside in about a year. Whatever OpenAI ships next for agents is going to feel a lot more like a product and less like a model demo.

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@theo Would love to hear your thoughts on the recent Grok Bot limit changes. Have you noticed a significant difference in usage compared to last week? Curious what you think about the changes and whether the pricing is still worth it.

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@aduserx @bot @bot Do this for me too

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@GrokBotRadar I'm at 100% usage, then loaded $5 credit to start a job, it burned through it all already. I hope they can find a good balance because usage shouldn't deplete this fast.

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

My RAM sits idle because it's mine. That's the whole point of local.

[Pubity @pubity]

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman believes people owning RAM is wasteful, and that it belongs in data centers instead.

"From a global allocation perspective, actually, it’s quite terrible to have everyone have a bunch of the world’s limited supply of DRAM sitting in their own computer."

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@SadAlbert10 🥀

[Kenneth Hendricks Jr. @KenHendricksJr]

@melvindvivas Nope. I was on the $100 plan with Dot and everything and it was lackluster, so I dropped to $20, and that tier is super neglected. Just cancelled and switched to Claude. Way better value for $20.
