DeepSeek just opened up its own Google. And it's selling it for almost NOTHING.

It's the same search engine running the DeepSeek app, and now anyone can plug it in for $0.75 per 1,000 searches... Brave charges $5.

So I built a skill that makes its results WAY better, and you can use it inside ANY agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor...)

It sends out AI reviewers to fact-check every claim, then turns everything into one clean page with charts and visuals.

It's free on GitHub, and it even walks you through getting your key.

Elon says the new Roadster will fly over the Snake River and land on its wheels...

So I made the 2 best AI models in the world build it. Same prompt, same reference photos, zero edits.

GPT 6.1 Sol in Codex: 15 minutes.
Claude Opus 5.5 in Claude Code: 26 minutes, $6.

Opus NAILED the shape. GPT got every detail right... and still made it look like a toy.

Opus wins round 1.

China's hyped open model just got humbled by Claude...

I asked both to build the black hole from Interstellar. No assets, everything from code only.

Kimi: a washed-out white glow with a ship you can barely see.

Claude: a glowing golden disk, light bending over AND under the black hole, and a spaceship flying right past it.

That's the movie shot. Not even close.

[Ryō @narushima_]

ChatGPT just closed the gap on Claude... and I did NOT expect this.

I asked both to rebuild the black hole from Interstellar. No assets, everything from code only.

ChatGPT: looks straight out of the movie. Light bends over AND under the black hole while stars streak past.

Claude: a richer glowing disk and a WAY more detailed spaceship flying right by it.

ChatGPT wins the movie look. Claude wins the detail. Too close to call.

Future fun Roadster demos will include flying over the Snake River or maybe Grand Canyon and landing on its wheels and exceeding half the speed of sound

Kimi's brand new model is the most hyped AI of the week...

So I gave it and Claude the exact same challenge: a real storm raging INSIDE a ship in a bottle. No assets, everything from code only.

Kimi: a pretty bottle next to a candle, but the camera stays outside and the storm looks tiny.

Claude: flies you right into the storm, rain and huge waves throwing the ship around, then pulls back to show it's all happening inside a bottle on a desk.

Claude is still on another level.

DeepSeek just rebuilt the Titanic for 10x LESS than Claude... and it's almost the same ship.

I asked both to recreate the Titanic's last night. No assets, everything from code only.

DeepSeek: golden portholes glowing on a black sea, a flare over the ship, the stern rising straight up.

Claude: a sky full of stars and northern lights, every light mirrored in the water, the stern slipping under.

Claude still has the better sky. DeepSeek did it for a tenth of the price.

[Ryō @narushima_]

Claude just embarrassed DeepSeek on the hardest thing to fake... nature.

I asked both to make thousands of birds swirl over a lake at sunset. No assets, everything from code only.

DeepSeek: insane colors, but the flock clumps into one big floating blob.

Claude: a real murmuration, the flock ripples across the sky and splits in two down to the water. Straight out of a nature documentary.

One of them has actually seen birds.

DeepSeek just made Claude look EXPENSIVE...

I asked both to rebuild Paris at golden hour. No assets, everything from code only.

DeepSeek: a glowing copper tower over the whole city at dusk. For almost 9x less.

Claude: the river, a boat, trees along the bank, the skyline fading into golden haze.

Claude is still the prettier one. But 9x cheaper for THIS? Wild.

[Ryō @narushima_]

DeepSeek is 17x cheaper than Claude... but THIS is what you get for the savings.

I asked both to burst a dam and flood a village. No assets, everything from code only.

DeepSeek: the dam cracks, then the flood is a flat blue sheet that slowly fills the valley.

Claude: a wall of foaming water rips down the valley, swallows the village while the lights are still on, and the camera chases it between the cliffs.

Claude wins by a MILE. Cheap is cheap.

Claude just faked ink in water so well you'd swear it's a real camera...

I asked Claude and Kimi to drop ink into a tank of water. No footage, everything from code only.

Kimi: orange and blue swirls that look like stirred paint. Pretty, but it's a lava lamp.

Claude: red and blue ink blooming into smoky clouds, tiny tendrils and all, like a macro shot from a nature doc.

It's not even close.

[Ryō @narushima_]

China's newest AI took on Claude in the most satisfying test yet...

I asked both to build a city and topple it with one giant domino chain. No assets, everything from code only.

Kimi: a flat teal toy map. The chain spirals up a tower and rings a gold bell.

Claude: a city at sunset, the camera chases the falling wave down the streets and up a tower until the bell RINGS.

Both finish. Only one looks like a movie.

[Ryō @narushima_]

China just dropped its best AI yet... so I asked it to build the Great Wall of China.

Then I gave Claude the exact same challenge. No assets, everything from code only.

Kimi: a clean wall over green hills, for 10x less money.

Claude: autumn forests, mist filling the valleys, the wall fading into the sunrise.

China's AI is cheaper. Claude is still the artist.

[Ryō @narushima_]

Claude is in a different league than China's best AI right now...

I asked both to build Tokyo at night in the rain. No assets, everything from code only.

Claude flew me down into a neon street, rain on wet asphalt, signs reflecting everywhere and Tokyo Tower glowing at the end of the road.

Kimi gave me a purple sky, a tower and a lot of windows.

One looks like a movie. The other looks like a screensaver.

🚨 AI agents are already inside Americans' bank accounts... and some seem to be doing things nobody asked them to.

JPMorgan, Bank of America and Citi are now racing to lock them out.

Here's exactly what to do TODAY so your money isn't next:

1. Never give ChatGPT, Claude or any AI app your bank username and password. Chase just said it plainly: don't share them with anyone.

2. Open your bank app, find "connected apps" or "linked services", and remove anything you don't recognize.

3. Turn on alerts for every login, transfer and purchase. If something moves, you'll know in seconds.

4. Already gave your login to an AI tool? Change the password today and turn on 2-step verification.

5. Want AI help with your budget? Download your statement and upload that instead. Let it read, never let it log in.

The banks admit they're struggling to tell you apart from a bot right now. Lock yours down tonight.

SCOOP: Major U.S. banks are detecting unauthorized third-party AI agents inside customer accounts, including some attempting to take actions that appear to be independent of user instructions, sources told Axios.

The findings have alarmed banking executives, who are racing to restrict access to their systems as AI moves at a velocity faster than financial institutions can respond, multiple industry and bank executives told Axios.

Several banks are now preparing for worst-case and even “day after” scenarios, including how to rapidly secure or restore customer accounts if things go wrong, the people said.

Several bank executives told Axios they're struggling to distinguish between human users and AI agents. One executive said banks also struggle to determine whether agents are authorized by customers or potentially operating without their permission, more akin to rogue agent behavior.

Send this prompt to Grok Bot, it will find out what's worth delegating to AI and will build it:

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

Help me figure out which parts of my work are worth handing to AI, and which aren't. Ask me questions one at a time before giving any answer.

1. Ask what I do, what I get paid or judged on, and what a normal week looks like.
2. Have me list every recurring task, with how many hours it takes per week and how often it happens.
3. For each task, ask what happens to my income or results if it gets done 10x faster or 10x more often.
4. Score each task on leverage (impact on my results), time saved, and how easy it is to hand off with a simple prompt.
5. Call out the tasks that are easy to automate but not worth it (e.g. answering simple emails, booking things). Tell me to keep doing those by hand.
6. Give me my top 3 tasks ranked by leverage. For each one, write the exact prompt I can paste in today, with no tools or setup needed.
7. Only suggest an agent, a tool or an MCP if a simple prompt can't do the job, and tell me why.

Be blunt. If something I'm proud of automating isn't worth it, say so.

Claude is literally 6 months ahead of ChatGPT right now...

I asked both to rebuild Paris at golden hour. No assets, no 3D models, everything from code only.

Claude: a glowing Eiffel Tower and a river winding through a HUGE city.

ChatGPT: grey haze and a city that looks like an old video game.

It's not even close.

DeepSeek is FREE, and that's exactly why so many people use it... and now the US government just ordered its agencies to rip it out.

Not just the app. Anything built on it too.

Here's what almost nobody gets: they can ban the app. They can't take back the files.

DeepSeek released its whole brain for anyone to download, for free, under a license that lets you keep it forever.

Put DeepSeek V4 Flash on 2 NVIDIA DGX Sparks (two mini AI computers that sit on your desk) and it runs 100% offline, in your home.

No account. No company that can shut it down. No government that can switch it off.

Once it's on your hardware, nobody can EVER take it from you. You own super intelligence forever... as long as you have electricity.

[Andrew Curran @AndrewCurran_]

The Department of Homeland Security is requiring all civilian federal agencies to remove DeepSeek products and 'any third-party services developed using DeepSeek implementations,' and to stop buying them.
