Yes they did. This will be a big blow to Anthropic and OpenAI

[Lumina @LuminaBench]

🚨 Gemini 4 Argon is ridiculously cheap too

It's between GPT-6 Astra and GPT-6.1 Sol in terms of cost, while being Astra level in intelligence

Google absolutely nailed the price/performance

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

Haha, this is hilarious to watch.

[Ankit @BytesWithAnkit]

I literally can't focus on anything but Dario here 😭

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

Maybe it pays off in the future, but right now 256 is not sufficient to compete with current LLM access from frontier labs.

[Federico Viticci @viticci]

I reviewed the M5 Ultra Mac Studio with 256 GB of RAM.

It’s the dream Mac for local AI agents. And I’ve gone local-only with Hermes.

Welcome news

[Secretary Kennedy @SecKennedy]

Our children get one childhood, and we cannot allow screens to replace the real-world experiences they need to grow and thrive. 

Through the Office of the Surgeon General’s Live Real Life initiative, we are giving families practical tools to put technology in its proper place and get children back to playing, exploring, connecting, and experiencing the world around them.

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

Makes sense to me

[Vivek Ramaswamy @VivekGRamaswamy]

Here’s my data center policy for Ohio.

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

I’m so happy to hear that and hope it’s true. It would be ironic if Mississippi, Alabama and surrounding states became national leaders in education.

[Gunther Eagleman™ @GuntherEagleman]

🚨 THE MISSISSIPPI MIRACLE THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE 

American 15-year-olds just posted near-WORST scores ever on a key global reading and math test.

Meanwhile Mississippi, once ranked 47th in 4th grade reading… is now 9th.

Adjust for demographics?

NUMBER ONE in the nation in 4th grade reading and math.

NUMBER ONE in 8th grade math.

A Black child in Mississippi is 2.5X more likely to be proficient in reading by 4th grade than a child in California.

They spend about $11,000 LESS per student than Massachusetts and they’re beating them.

How?
Science of reading.
3rd grade retention if you can’t read.
Charters in failing districts.
School choice for special needs.
RAISED standards, not lowered them.

Governor Tate Reeves: conservative reforms + accountability work for EVERY kid.

Blue states keep dumbing it down.

Mississippi raised the bar, and the kids met it.

This is the model. Copy it.

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

This is not looking good.

[PammsyNow @NowPammsy]

Bill Maher is at it again…. Making sense!🙌🏻
He’s quoting the DSA party with their agenda!

As he said “they’re supposed to scaring you INTO voting for you!” 😜

They might as well put out we’re all for communism! Oh they did! 😳

This won’t end well! Be careful how you vote!👊🏻

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

That is the danger of grossly incompetent people in science and politics.

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 JUST IN: Sec. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is scoring TOTAL VINDICATION after the two "measles deaths" in Pennsylvania were confirmed FABRICATED

25 days ago: CNN's Dana Bash goes full accusatory panic mode, says RFK is likely responsible for a "measles outbreak"

Days later: PA Gov. Josh Shapiro fabricates two measles deaths, "first in 35 years"

Shapiro is then called out by the Lancaster County Commissioner, who confirmed there are no such Measles-CAUSED deaths.

Same COVID playbook: deaths WITH a condition identified as deaths CAUSED by a condition — NOT HOW IT WORKS.

I stand with @SecKennedy!

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

True

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

How many people are in this trap right now?

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

This forgotten mouse experiment is now more relatable than ever.

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

True. Very sad what motivates journalists these days.

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

I HAVE LITERALLY SEEN MORE INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM ON THE DAMN REFLECTING POOL...

...THAN ALL JOURNALISM DONE BY ALL MEDIA ON ALL FRAUD COMBINED!!!!!

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

Yes, this is the most concerning change in politics recently, a major schism in the population.

[Not the Bee @Not_the_Bee]

There used to be a two party system separated by ideology but unified in respect for the law and proliferation of shared American values.

Now there are no shared values. It’s just the people that like America vs the people that want to destroy it.

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

@EricLDaugh Strategically might be likely on Christmas 2028 before the new president takes office in 2029. Would you respond to that with force knowing your time is short?

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

@MediasLies I’ll believe it when I see it, Jen

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

@fandompulse Say you screwed up. Do not try to time travel or multiverse your way out. Make family-friendly, non sexualized, and original good vs evil content where all demographics are shown in their best light and don’t play politics with individual or group identities.

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

Very impressive to achieve similar intelligence to Gemini Pro while also achieving cost of Gemini Flash. This is moving towards becoming the agentic powerhouse.

[Artificial Analysis @ArtificialAnlys]

xAI has launched Grok 4.3, achieving 53 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index with improved agentic performance, ~40% lower input price, and ~60% lower output price than Grok 4.20

The release of Grok 4.3 places @xAI just above Muse Spark and Claude Sonnet 4.6 on the Intelligence Index, and a 4 points ahead of the latest version of Grok 4.20. Grok 4.3 improves its Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index score while reducing cost to run the benchmark suite.

Key Takeaways:

➤ Grok 4.3 improves on cost-per-intelligence relative to Grok 4.20 0309 v2: it scores higher on the Intelligence Index while costing less to run the full benchmark suite. Grok 4.3 costs $395 to run the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, around 20% lower than Grok 4.20 0309 v2, despite using more output tokens. This makes it one of the lower-cost models at its intelligence level

➤ Large increase in real world agentic task performance: The largest single benchmark improvement is on GDPval-AA, where Grok 4.3 scores an ELO of 1500, up 321 points from Grok 4.20 0309 v2’s score of 1179 Grok 4.3, surpassing Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview, Muse Spark, Gpt-5.4 mini (xhigh), and Kimi K2.5. Grok 4.3 narrows the gap to the leading model on GDPval-AA, but still trails GPT-5.5 (xhigh) by 276 Elo points, with an expected win rate of ~17% against GPT-5.5 (xhigh) under the standard Elo formula

➤ Grok 4.3’s performs strongly on instruction following and agentic customer support tasks. It gains 5 points on 𝜏²-Bench Telecom to reach 98%, in line with GLM-5.1. Grok 4.3 maintains an 81% IFBench score from Grok 4.20 0309 v2

➤ Gains 8 points on AA-Omniscience Accuracy, but at the cost of lower AA-Omniscience Non-Hallucination Rate of 8 points, so Grok 4.20 0309 v2 still leads AA-Omniscience Non-Hallucination Rate, followed by MiMo-V2.5-Pro, in line with Grok 4.3

Congratulations to @xAI and @elonmusk on the impressive release!

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

Yep, wealth is hard to redistribute no matter how you propose to do it apart from generosity.

[Glenn Beck @glennbeck]

Allow me to translate socialist to English.

When Mamdani says, "NYC faces a budget crisis," he means, "we ran out of other people's money."

When he says, "we need new revenue," he means, "we're going to tax people more."

But wait, he already "taxed the rich" straight out of the city. So, who does that leave him to tax now?

The next richest class. Then the one below that. And the one below that. It happens the same way every time.

Isn't socialism neat?

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

Yea. Fertility is very misleading. It should at least be clear that it is largely by choice not a decline in ability to have children.

[Clare Anne Ath @clareanneath]

🚨 America doesn’t have a fertility problem it has an abortion problem.

February 2025: 275,165 births
February 2026: 269,258 births

Abortions last year: 1,126,000+

[Ryan McGehee @RPMcGehee]

@LouPerez Not just that. Must be *far* right because inaction or indifference = doing all the bad.
