Google's fumbling of AI is entirely due to Sundar's inept management and inability to retain top AI talent.

Today we’re launching MiniMax Code 2.0.
Rebuilt on the open-source @pidotdev Pi Agent framework, MiniMax Code 2.0 delivers a smoother, more reliable experience across everyday conversations, office work, and long-running complex tasks.
Here’s what’s new
If you left your coding agent alone for more than 1h, don't hit continue. Open a new session.
Send the exact same message. While you're working, it costs 1x. After coffee, 1.3x. After a call, 1.6x.
After lunch: 13x.
The cache holding your session expires at exactly 60 minutes, and your first message has to rebuild the whole thing from scratch.
A new session costs 4.5x. So before you walk away: "summarize where we are." After lunch, paste it into a fresh window.
Measured across a month of my own Claude Code — 110 sessions, 46,580 turns.

South Africa 🇿🇦 and the UK 🇬🇧 are finally starting to show promising results. Still a lot to improve, but we’re moving in the right direction. Building every day.
These two sparks run @deepseek_ai V4 flash 0731 at ~95 tok/s.
This is a smart, fast and capable model with a large context window.
You can even run this model with a single spark!
That is frontier-level model running locally and privately 🔥🔥
The biggest advantage of DeepSeek isn’t just the model—it’s the freedom.
When every idea in your head is effectively free to explore, you end up doing far more work and thinking much deeper.
Usage limits on closed AI models don’t just affect your wallet—they also affect your creativity and productivity.
One thing I didn’t expect about DeepSeek: I never have to think about token limits.
Every idea in my head gets explored. Every rabbit hole gets followed.
That freedom alone makes me dramatically more productive. Token limits don’t just limit usage—they limit your thinking.
