@anujsaharan Amazing

[richard @nostaltage]

the most important benchmark

[max @maxbittker]

GPT-5.6 Astra just exploded Runescape bench scores, setting huge records on 10/16 skills. Huge outlier performance.

[richard @nostaltage]

the future of computing is walking and talking

[richard @nostaltage]

feels like the next inflection point

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

GPT-6 Astra is state-of-the-art on FrontierMath Tier 4, ARC-AGI 3, and TerminalBench-4.0.

GPT‑6 Astra is also a major advance for scientific discovery, with state-of-the-art performance on Terminal-Bench Science 0.1 and HealthBench Pro.

[richard @nostaltage]

hmm

[Leon Lin @LexnLin]

Very weird that Gemini 3.8 Flash is leading on Terminal-bench 2.1 but far behind on 4.0

[richard @nostaltage]

@alexandr_wang @alexandr_wang genuinely so impressed given where Meta was at pre-Scale

[richard @nostaltage]

gemini seems to be going harder on the efficiency front rather than frontier intelligence these days.

[Philipp Schmid @_philschmid]

Gemini 3.8 Flash is GA. It's our 3rd Flash release in 6 weeks, continuing our focus on real-world engineering, long-horizon tasks, and agent autonomy. It's generally better than 3.7 Flash across all domains. Same pricing: $0.75 / $3.75 per 1M*. ⚡️

It takes smaller steps and verifies its work more often. This can leads to higher token usage but it uses those extra tokens effectively to run tests and verify changes, giving you much higher quality work overall, especially for more complex and long-running goals.

Default model in @antigravity and Managed Agents. Available in @GoogleAIStudio, Gemini API, and @GeminiApp.

Throw your hardest coding/agentic tasks at it: https://t.co/vs1tRS7WiE

[richard @nostaltage]

impressive.

[Mark Zuckerberg @finkd]

Muse Spark 1.3 is rolling out today with frontier performance almost too cheap to meter. This is the biggest jump we've made so far on coding and agentic work. Try it in Muse Code and our API.

Next up 🍉 and Muse Spark open weights releases coming soon.

@evatuecke @altaratech @catherinehyeo hey @evatuecke! I work on NVIDIA's startup team and love what you're building. Would love to connect and learn more :)

[richard @nostaltage]

@Airbnb reaallllyy needs to implement AI search asap...searching by city/location is so outdated.

[richard @nostaltage]

@FarzaTV is building something great. Been using Clicky for several weeks now and it has genuinely changed the way I use my computer.

[Farza 🇵🇰🇺🇸 @FarzaTV]

We recently passed 1000 paying customers.

And, onboarded our first enterprises this week.

The product has a long way to go but there's a lot of magic to it. It's only gonna get better. I appreciate every person who's given it a shot.
