spent my 11-hour flight back from europe working on a very long report. started as a slack message but morphed into a several pages long doc. wifi was as shitty as it gets. after finally making it home i realized that the computer had forcefully restarted. opened slack: draft was gone :(

hail mary: claude pls save me, no clue how but pls try

it checked APFS snapshots, time machine, slack indexeddb, write-ahead logs, service worker / http caches, local storage, app logs, hibernation image... nothing. all gone

but then... it realized i have alfred installed. so it checked the clipboard snapshots alfred keeps in sqlite. sad news: alfred clipboard memory gets deleted after 24h. aggressive retention policy. however! when sqlite runs DELETE, nothing gets actually deleted. it only marks pages as reusable, but it doesn't override the physical bytes. so claude decided to do a raw-scan of the db, reverse eng alfred data format, figure out the portion containing the timestamp, stitched everything back together across overflow pages... and handed me the exact final version of my report, the last one i cmd+C'd

all this, in a single shot

... day 200 of "what if you had an elite hacker you can ask anything to"

Compliance officers are one of the fastest growing occupations in America.

Compliance is a bigger business than you'd think. Every dollar that leaves or enters a business: paying employees, reporting revenue, and moving capital are subject to compliance.

As AI clears the "good enough to trust" bar and sales cycles speed up, there may finally be an opening for startups.

Pareto frontier on intelligence v cost.
Lots more to come

[Artificial Analysis @ArtificialAnlys]

xAI has launched Grok 4.3, achieving 53 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index with improved agentic performance, ~40% lower input price, and ~60% lower output price than Grok 4.20

The release of Grok 4.3 places @xAI just above Muse Spark and Claude Sonnet 4.6 on the Intelligence Index, and a 4 points ahead of the latest version of Grok 4.20. Grok 4.3 improves its Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index score while reducing cost to run the benchmark suite.

Key Takeaways:

➤ Grok 4.3 improves on cost-per-intelligence relative to Grok 4.20 0309 v2: it scores higher on the Intelligence Index while costing less to run the full benchmark suite. Grok 4.3 costs $395 to run the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, around 20% lower than Grok 4.20 0309 v2, despite using more output tokens. This makes it one of the lower-cost models at its intelligence level

➤ Large increase in real world agentic task performance: The largest single benchmark improvement is on GDPval-AA, where Grok 4.3 scores an ELO of 1500, up 321 points from Grok 4.20 0309 v2’s score of 1179 Grok 4.3, surpassing Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview, Muse Spark, Gpt-5.4 mini (xhigh), and Kimi K2.5. Grok 4.3 narrows the gap to the leading model on GDPval-AA, but still trails GPT-5.5 (xhigh) by 276 Elo points, with an expected win rate of ~17% against GPT-5.5 (xhigh) under the standard Elo formula

➤ Grok 4.3’s performs strongly on instruction following and agentic customer support tasks. It gains 5 points on 𝜏²-Bench Telecom to reach 98%, in line with GLM-5.1. Grok 4.3 maintains an 81% IFBench score from Grok 4.20 0309 v2

➤ Gains 8 points on AA-Omniscience Accuracy, but at the cost of lower AA-Omniscience Non-Hallucination Rate of 8 points, so Grok 4.20 0309 v2 still leads AA-Omniscience Non-Hallucination Rate, followed by MiMo-V2.5-Pro, in line with Grok 4.3

Congratulations to @xAI and @elonmusk on the impressive release!
