@rezoundous At this point the benchmark charts need patch notes.

@nunezvice One week you master a model, next week there’s a better one.

@daniel_mac8 AI labs really turned coding into Formula 1.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@Mr_Salio The real winners are developers getting better tools every month.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@reach_vb We’re approaching the era of AI pair programmers becoming standard.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@DeryaTR_ Sol Ultra is a pretty aggressive name for an aggressive benchmark score.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@thsottiaux Competition this intense is pushing everyone forward fast.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

GPT vs Claude debates are becoming the new console wars.

[BridgeMind @bridgemindai]

Fable 5 is finally back.

I burned through half my weekly limit before breakfast and I regret nothing.

But this chart should terrify Anthropic.

GPT 5.6 Sol Ultra: 91.9% on TerminalBench 2.1
Fable 5: 84.3%

Even GPT 5.6 Terra, the MID tier, ties Fable 5.

And GPT 5.6 drops any day now.

Anthropic's response?

Remove Fable 5 from subscriptions on July 7.

You do not win a model war by deleting your best model.

July is going to be the most insane month in AI history.

@PosterBooking The hard part of IoT is deployment in messy real environments, not lab demos... mediatek helps there.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@ItsCrownTV Running connected devices nonstop is harder than demos make it look... mediatek seems built for that.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@sdss_nigeria In large IoT deployments, remote updates are underrated... mediatek-supported platforms make that much easier

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@Smartsignagehq IoT at scale means every device needs to stay in sync, and mediatek solutions help with that challenge.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@panashikiosk reliable 24/7 operation matters more than peak compute in IoT... mediatek knows this.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@iotbusinessnews @Com4IoT A lot of IoT bottlenecks are actually networking issues, not compute issues... mediatek addresses both pretty well

[Sundar Pichai @sundarpichai]

Love this re-imagining of America’s founding using Docs, Gmail, Calendar and more from @GoogleWorkspace. Really puts the history in version history :)

@aaronp613 At this point, USB-C was the cheap part.

Looks like the apple price hike didn't affect the store traffic at all

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

@9to5mac Apple raising prices again? Must be autumn already.

[Hunter Maclean @hu18379]

Apple’s real innovation is making expensive feel premium.
