Today we're sharing the Notion Knowledge Board.
We get to observe a wide range of real-world AI tasks at @NotionHQ: meeting follow-ups, support tickets, sales pipeline updates, market research, all the good stuff. Knowledge board is a live, ongoing eval of how models handle real knowledge work measured on live anonymized traffic and scored by an ensemble judge we built in collaboration with researchers at Anthropic and OpenAI.
The takeaway is the tradeoffs: cost per task variance is high, and some of the fastest models are also very capable. The right model genuinely depends on your work.
We will update as new models ship: https://t.co/BMmwQV9W6m
The September Duma elections are very important. I think as important, or more, than the US November elections. Mainstream media, looking for sensational results, do not understand how elections in a de facto autocratic regime work. Small and seemingly insignificant shifts are important. If not openly pro-war parties in Russia get 10-15 percent of the vote things will change; the fence-sitters will take notice; the pro-war parties will get scared....
They know that 10-15% might mean 30-40%.
Not a joke anymore.
1. A belated update on China’s insurance industry:
In 2025, the top five A-share insurers distributed RMB102 billion in cash dividends, marking a 12.8% year-on-year increase.
These numbers are insane in the context of the size of Korea economy. Even post tax the profit of these two companies will be like 25% of GDP.
They cannot bring all the USD revenue into KRW or they are going to send the FX to 1000 hurting every other industry (eg batteries, try to compete with the Chinese when your FX appreciates 35% - LG, Samsung SDI, SK On.. imagine also autos, shipbuilding, chemicals...).
BOK has a job ahead. Maybe they need a SWF to recycle USD. Unprecedented, books will be written in the 2030s about what ended up happening.
