Fable 5 beats GPT 5.5 in my proofreading benchmark. And it does so at approximately the same total cost; it used significantly fewer turns than 5.5

I use Carplay all the time and I didn't even realize it has voice control. I just set things up on my phone and drive.

I think it's fair to say that OpenAI has at least partially won the "consumer AI" segment.

Yeah but OpenAI isn't building phones. The real winning would be Google's deep integration of Gemini into all of their products.

Also, even when you DO get AI into products, consumers might not like them. The overuse of copilot led to a barrage of Microslop jokes, for example

I would expect Apple to hedge their bet on Gemini and build everything so that the model can be swapped out in the future.

You’re not responding to anything the parent said.

Parent comment urged everyone to cancel NYT subscriptions and the child comment respectfully disagreed and explained why they still find value. That seems like a very direct response. These aren’t formal arguments and rebuttals; just opinions. I appreciate hearing both perspectives.

The parent didn’t respond to anything their parent said either.

I agree. I have gotten an incredible amount of work done iterating with 5-30 minute long agent tasks. But it requires I stay engaged, and not go chill on the beach, which I guess is a lot of agentmaxxers’ goal.

Yeah I don’t really see the backpressure analogy here - it implies that the agent is constantly producing new stuff, which isn’t really possible since the solution is very detailed specs/goals.

Salaried people think they get paid for their output. No silly, you get paid for your time. Just like an hourly worker.

am I the only one who always replies to people manually? I don't think I've ever done the "send back a chatGPT screenshot" or copy paste a response from chatGPT to a message I know was from a human.

A nice reminder to not check the "organ donor" box at the DMV
