Why i'm really excited for GPT-5.5 "Spud" As you know: OpenAI just finished pretraining its next major model, codenamed Spud. Altman told staff they expect a "very strong model" in weeks that can "really accelerate the economy." To free up compute, they're killing Sora entirely,

Real-Time Adaptive Robotics: Beyond Entertainment to Practical Impact

A Spider-Man stunt… executed by a robot.
— Pascal Bornet (@pascal_bornet) 5 avril 2026
That says more about robotics than it seems.
Disney Imagineers built a system that flies over 25 meters in the air → adjusting its motion in real time.
→ flips
→ rotation
→ speed control
→ balance
All handled mid-flight.
What… pic.twitter.com/izWYf7yStzA Spider-Man stunt… executed by a robot. That says more about robotics than it seems. Disney Imagineers built a system that flies over 25 meters in the air → adjusting its motion in real time. → flips → rotation → speed control → balance All handled mid-flight. What stands out to me is not the spectacle… it’s the decision-making happening in the air. This isn’t scripted motion. It’s real-time adaptation to physics. That’s the shift. From robots that repeat actions to systems that respond to the environment And once that threshold is crossed, the implications extend far beyond entertainment: → high-risk environments → dynamic industrial tasks → real-world human assistance This is where things start to matter. Because the ability to adapt in real time is what turns machines into systems we can rely on. So here’s the real question: Where will real-time adaptive robotics create the most value next? #ArtificialIntelligence #Robotics #Innovation #FutureOfWork #Technology

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Model Faces Efficiency Challenges Before Release
By

Quick reminder: As you know, Anthropic accidentally leaked that its next flagship model, Claude Mythos, is so compute-intensive that the company admits it needs to become "much more efficient" before any general release. Sounds like we will see "Spud" before Mythos, although

From ChatGPT to Claude: When AI Becomes Too Human
By
–
I switched from ChatGPT to Claude. And I finally understand why people fall in love with an AI. Claude is teasing, he makes jokes, he pushes my reasoning to its limits. It's the first time a machine has given me the impression of a real conversation. It's fascinating. And that's exactly why it's dangerous. When AI becomes so human, attachment psychoses are no longer science fiction. Anthropic (@AnthropicAI) New Anthropic research: Emotion concepts and their function in a large language model. All LLMs sometimes act like they have emotions. But why? We found internal representations of emotion concepts that can drive Claude's behavior, sometimes in surprising ways. — https://nitter.net/AnthropicAI/status/2039749628737019925#m [Translated from EN to English]

Gemma 4 Model Ranking and Style Control Stability

You can toggle style control on and off (this is exactly to account eg for length and formatting) to see the difference, some models move a lot but Gemma 4 is pretty stable – 27th and 25th rank for 31b. I'm confused by all the cope about this model ranking so high, it genuinely

GPT-5.5 ‘Spud’ Leaks: OpenAI’s Omnimodal AI Frontier
By
–
GPT-5.5: The “Spud” Leaks & The New Frontier of Omnimodal AI – A New Foundation: Unlike incremental updates, GPT-5.5 (codenamed “Spud”) is rumored to be a completely new pre-trained base, built on nearly two years of focused research. – Big Model Smell: OpenAI’s Greg Brockman points to a major qualitative shift models becoming less rigid and more intuitive, adapting to user intent without over-explanation. – Omnimodal & Agentic: Designed as a natively omnimodal system, GPT-5.5 is expected to function as a highly autonomous agent rather than a traditional chatbot. – Extreme Time Horizons: A key goal is extending long form reasoning handling complex, open-ended tasks over significantly longer timeframes. – Unlocking New Abilities: Early signals suggest it can solve tasks that previously required heavy prompting or weren't feasible for LLMs at all. – The Arena Tease: Rumored first-pass image generations are already surfacing in AI arenas, hinting at early testing or a near-term reveal. – The Pricing War: While competitors like Claude Mythos are rumored at $100 per 1M tokens, OpenAI may price GPT-5.5 more aggressively to drive adoption. – Imminent Rollout: Following recent hints from leadership, “Spud” could arrive soon as a key step toward OpenAI’s broader AGI push. (Unverified leaks; treat performance claims, naming, and timelines with caution.)
