3/ What stood out is that it doesn’t just give an answer right away You can actually see it searching and putting everything together step by step, including how it links rising oil prices to inflation and overall costs, so it doesn’t feel like it’s just guessing
'Silicon sampling' is replacing real humans in public opinion polls with AI simulations. No phone calls or focus groups. Just a language model role-playing as thousands of people who were never asked what they think. Gallup has partnered with a startup called Simile to build
perhaps we should compare calculators to humans? also, if you actually follow my work (eg October 2025 NYT oped) you will know I am a fan of domain specific AI (like Waymo) and skeptical of domain-general AI (like chatbots), so I appreciate your making my case for me.

Another big release: GLM-5.1! China is on fire! significant increase in evals compared to GLM-5.0 tl;dr GLM-5.1 is the new open-source agentic coding model that significantly outperforms its predecessor by sustaining long-horizon problem-solving over hundreds of iterations, continuously improving results instead of plateauing, achieving state-of-the-art performance on complex software engineering benchmarks. Z.ai (@Zai_org) Introducing GLM-5.1: The Next Level of Open Source – Top-Tier Performance: #1 in open source and #3 globally across SWE-Bench Pro, Terminal-Bench, and NL2Repo. – Built for Long-Horizon Tasks: Runs autonomously for 8 hours, refining strategies through thousands of iterations. Blog: z.ai/blog/glm-5.1 Weights: huggingface.co/zai-org/GLM-5… API: docs.z.ai/guides/llm/glm-5.1 Coding Plan: z.ai/subscribe Coming to chat.z.ai in the next few days. — https://nitter.net/Zai_org/status/2041550153354519022#m
