@GrindeOptions I grew up in Chicago and own a small business in rural Missouri. AI’s promise isn’t just productivity—it’s access. Affordable expertise could help rural students, workers, and businesses keep pace. Opportunity shouldn’t depend on where you live.

[Neil @nmehta456]

@tarekoyou Really clean

[Neil @nmehta456]

@TokenGremlin Yeah I was really surprised

[Neil @nmehta456]

@_ak_111 Same didn’t come

[Neil @nmehta456]

@edbayes @Dimillian Definitely like it. Really clean

[Neil @nmehta456]

@trq212 I pay for the ChatGPT subscription only because of. Computer use otherwise Claude is on fire please fix that a small business owner asking kindly

[Neil @nmehta456]

@trq212 Can we have a passwords connector please

[Neil @nmehta456]

@gailcweiner It’s just so dumb

[Neil @nmehta456]

@TENTHDEMENSION @TokenGremlin I am thinking it’s for business users too it would kill consumers

[Neil @nmehta456]

@tesla_semi Can I ou at least get the model y l production figured out please

[Neil @nmehta456]

@angelbrodin @matteing Please done kill us with an absurd subscription price

[Neil @nmehta456]

@gailcweiner Given the backlash they @OpenAI still don’t care I am surprised

[Neil @nmehta456]

@theo Yeah and now they want to add a $500 plan

[Neil @nmehta456]

@TokenGremlin I agree especially after opus 5.5 it would be ridiculous with @thsottiaux at the top of the team doing something so absurd it would really affect his reputation

[Neil @nmehta456]

@bughuntergeek @btibor91 @angelbrodin

[Neil @nmehta456]

@thsottiaux I hope this is not true. I hope @OpenAI still work there to benefit humanity not to just help the one person. One side you hear @OpenAI staff saying they work to give intelligence to everyone but that would really be disappointing if their humanity gets dissolved instead.

@_ak_111 Wish they made Astra cheaper to use

For the last several years, I have said that OpenAI models are better at ideation, creation, and exploration.

If I had to brainstorm something, I would have picked whatever OpenAI model was best in class.

Yesterday, that changed.

First, Opus 5.5 is the only model to hit (note: hit, not beat) my code-meets-poetry challenge. It is the only time I have shared the test with a lab. I was in shock.

Second, last night when making slides, I prompted both Codex and Claude Code to give me design options for one slide I couldn’t crack. Codex was a mess. Claude Opus 5.5 made 6 versions as pngs using image 2.5 from OAI, labeled them perfectly, saved to computer, opened up finder, and messaged its preference (I agreed with one of its recommendations but not the other).

When I said my two preferences, it immediately created them as editable slides in PPT (like text boxes, shapes, the whole thing). I didn’t ask for that.

In my early testing of Opus 5.5, it had several tool call failures. And it seems they have fixed it.

Opus 5.5 is a tool-wielding machine and feels far more creative than previous Claude models.

[Neil @nmehta456]

@Masterxexe1 @TokenGremlin Agreed glad I am not the only one. What’s @OpenAI going to be bringing to table

[Neil @nmehta456]

@IamEmily2050 Agreed been a heavy user of @ChatGPT but seems you give opus 5.5 a task and man it just gets it done. We need @OpenAI to step it out @thsottiaux
