I wasn't ready for how hard this quote hit this morning when I read it.

I had my whole life flash before my eyes 🤣

[Magnus Carlsen @MagnusCarlsen]

A great quote from The Wire

[Naval @naval]

To build product, “make something people want.”

To create art, make something *you* want.

(The best do both).

[Sam Altman @sama]

OPENAI ROADMAP UPDATE FOR GPT-4.5 and GPT-5:

We want to do a better job of sharing our intended roadmap, and a much better job simplifying our product offerings.

We want AI to “just work” for you; we realize how complicated our model and product offerings have gotten.

We hate the model picker as much as you do and want to return to magic unified intelligence.

We will next ship GPT-4.5, the model we called Orion internally, as our last non-chain-of-thought model.

After that, a top goal for us is to unify o-series models and GPT-series models by creating systems that can use all our tools, know when to think for a long time or not, and generally be useful for a very wide range of tasks.

In both ChatGPT and our API, we will release GPT-5 as a system that integrates a lot of our technology, including o3. We will no longer ship o3 as a standalone model.

The free tier of ChatGPT will get unlimited chat access to GPT-5 at the standard intelligence setting (!!), subject to abuse thresholds.

Plus subscribers will be able to run GPT-5 at a higher level of intelligence, and Pro subscribers will be able to run GPT-5 at an even higher level of intelligence. These models will incorporate voice, canvas, search, deep research, and more.

There are no returns to doing “average” work (outside of make-work jobs and physical labor).

All the returns come from doing *great* work, and scaling it up.

[Kevin Naughton Jr. @KevinNaughtonJr]

every line of code you write now is just tech debt for someone later

[Siqi Chen @blader]

i'm only a day in so far but @openai's deep research and o3 is exceeding the value of the $150K i am paying a private research team to research craniopharyngioma treatments for my daughter.

$200/mo is an insane ROI.

grateful to @sama and the @OpenAI team.

Today's "DeepSeek selloff" in the stock market -- attributed to DeepSeek V3/R1 disrupting the tech ecosystem -- is another sign that the application layer is a great place to be. The foundation model layer being hyper-competitive is great for people building applications.

@SusanPolgar @ChessvisionAI scan white is this correct?

@SusanPolgar Qxc7+ Qxc7 Rxe8+ Rxe8 Rxe8+ Qc8 Ba7+ Kxa7 Rxc8 and we have a rook for a bishop
