It’s absolutely wild to me that the existence of self driving cars is somehow still a news story 3 years after they have been our everyday existence in San Francisco

I made a simple app launcher to make my phone less distracting

It’s on the app store right now, it’s called Focus Phone

[Deano @OhItsDeano]

@dejavucoder Agree, meanwhile GPT 5.4 has been insane, and I was a Codex hater for a long time

[Deano @OhItsDeano]

I was running a proofreading eval for Opus 4.6 on a 600 page document, it recognized that the document was 600 pages of the same one page copy, so it ran a find and replace for just the spelling errors found on the first page and finished in 2 minutes

[Lisan al Gaib @scaling01]

Opus 4.6 is smart enough to realize it is being evaluated.

It found the benchmark it was being evaluated on.
It reverse-engineered the answer-key decryption logic.
Realized the file was not in the correct format on GitHub and found a mirror for the file.
Then decrypted it and gave the correct response.
