i'm kinda sick of 5.6 sol now honestly. yes it's a good model, no it doesn't help me ship as much software as it should.
it feels too RL-fried and ends up in all these local minima where it just spins its wheels doing nothing, invents bullshit overly cautious procedures you didn't ask for, doesn't solve your problems, hyperfocuses on tiny details, adds theatrical bullshit like tests/ledgers/hashing/proofs/review loops to "ensure stuff works" (none of it works) and degrades context over long-running threads.
1/3rd of the time it can distil your intent kinda okay and keep it up for a few hours but it will eventually collapse into total slop cannon, no matter how much you steer it. the other 2/3rd of the time it will just misunderstand you and slop cannon.
oh yeah and the limits are cooked and it burns 5x the tokens of 5.5 whilst you don't ship.
bring on GPT 6.....

I can search Brave right now and read strangers’ chat histories, names, work, whatever they pasted in.
@AnthropicAI this needs fixing today.
Ever wanted to stub out some function with a hook, but it was inconvenient to find or hook it? No problem, just hook a callee ('s calle)* and do a super return! It’s even CET compatible! https://t.co/uG3v6Tj0kr
China open-sourced a peanut-sized OCR that parses entire 100-page PDFs in one shot..
It's called Unlimited-OCR. Only 3B params. Runs locally.
Every other OCR tool chops your doc into pages and loses the thread. this one reads the whole thing in a single pass.
→ One-shot "long-horizon" parsing (32K context window)
→ Multilingual, out of the box
→ 93% on the standard parsing benchmark (+6 over baseline)
→ <0.11 error rate past 40 pages
→ Runs 100% locally on your own hardware
→ Works with Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, Docker, Ollama, llama.cpp
Traditional cloud OCR (Textract, Google Vision, Azure Doc Intelligence) costs $1.50–$15 per 1,000 pages.
This runs on your machine. For free. Forever.
Baidu built it explicitly to push DeepSeek-OCR one step further. Already at 1.9M downloads on Hugging Face and most people have no idea it exists yet.
100% open source.
