@thsottiaux The ChatGPT Android client's remote operation of Codex on the desktop, stability, output rendering, and remote document review features could be more user-friendly.
Introducing Kitesurf: a browser built for agents, running entirely on Cloudflare Workers.
Chromium is too heavy to hand every agent one. Kitesurf is written in Rust, uses 3-7x less CPU and memory, and spins up per request.

Announcing Discovery Loop!
I am very excited to announce that, along with my longtime friends and collaborators @Sanjay_Ghemawat, @OriolVinyalsML and @quocleix, we are founding Discovery Loop (@DiscoLoopAI), a Public Benefit Corporation whose mission is to automate machine learning, science, and engineering to accelerate discoveries and progress. The four of us have worked together for 14 to 30 years, and have helped build some of the world’s most used products, infrastructure and AI models, and we’re excited to turn our attention to this ambitious endeavor.

Last-but-not-late-interaction v2! Back in 2025 when we pivoted from pairwise bi-encoder to listwise reranker, i.e. [q,d1,d2,..., dN] in one-shot. I said this is either super stupid or super smart idea, but never never mediocre. Turned out to be the pivot that opened a whole new window for rerankers in 2026.

I think there's a lot of confusion and misinformation about Zhilin's visa, H1B lottery, immigration, and why he left the U.S.
Zhilin had many opportunities to stay in the U.S. if he wanted to. In fact, I was on an email thread with a senior Apple exec (Tim Cook's reports) asking whether Zhilin would consider joining Apple. I said that he wanted to go back to his homeland. The response was, well, we have an office in Beijing if he'd like to join there.
But Zhilin was quite determined to go back and build a startup. I remember him telling me that if he didn't at least try starting his own company, he would regret it for the rest of his life. I respect that, and he was right.
Many of my international PhD students do choose to stay in the U.S. Of course the U.S. immigration process can be quite intimidating and uncertain, even for superstar PhD graduates from places like CMU.
@thsottiaux I recently used GPT-5.6 Sol to refactor an important service and discovered several potential service risks that hadn't been caught during prior programming and repeated CRs with GPT-5.5.
@reach_vb Idk what OAI’s internal metrics look like, but almost everyone I know is maxing out the reasoning effort within their limits. I guess it just comes down to trusting the better intelligence.
