@daniel_nguyenx I think it’s important to realize how much you are learning through building as well - even if every company doesn’t work 100%, remember that these skills may allow you to be employed at these frontier labs someday

With Fable 5 and the upcoming Sol 5.6, I have this growing anxiety.
My negative nanny thought has been that when/if AGI is here, what I am building doesn’t seem to matter much anyway. Why keep grinding when the business might be crushed by bigger players with infinite token budget & better distribution.
Then it becomes procrastination. I keep falling for the Next Big Thing fallacy: an idea that could potentially become huge before the window closes forever. The fear of being “permanent underclass”.
And finally the guilt of not spending enough tokens. As if I’m throwing money away.
Maybe I just need to touch more grass IDK.
Does this happen to you too?

Also this graph that shows what an "AI-pilled" startup looks like, and how uncommon it is even among startups: the answer when founders are asked "Without GenAI, how many additional employees would you need to hire to maintain your current output with no change in quality?"

Managers, and their belief in the value of AI & how to use it, determines the value they actually get from AI. Neat paper looking at startups.

ByteDance announced Seedream 5.0 Pro, a new multimodal image generation model from its Seed team.
The model is built for advanced reasoning, efficient content creation, and professional production workflows. ByteDance highlights its ability to create high-density infographics, text-heavy educational visuals, technical diagrams, cinematic storyboards, UI designs, and professional marketing assets.
Seedream 5.0 Pro also focuses heavily on interactive editing. It can respond to spatial annotations, sketch-based guidance, and layered edits.
It supports native multilingual generation across a dozen widely used languages, including multilingual posters, right-to-left layout changes, and image text translation tasks.

just asked Grok 4.5 Fast inside Cursor to "make a weather app", taking inspiration from the video they posted
it's totally shit and doesn't match the demo in any way
that demo is incredibly misleading.

Announcing Grok 4.5, our first model trained specifically for coding and agents. It was trained with Cursor and offers frontier intelligence at leading speeds and cost efficiency. x.ai/news/grok-4-5

@BratDotAI EASILY codex 100 - learn one ecosystem before changing between two

@LuminaXspace How have you already gotten early access to Grok 4.5?

🚨I have been Testing out Grok Build with Grok 4.5 on xhigh:
- Im noticing rapid API/usage limit burn, but it is much much better than previous models I have tried from Grok like Composer 2.5 or Grok build (original).
- It feels much more independant, accurate and can do much more even thinking for 15-30 mins while using very low build usage and being efficient to do what it needs for most things.
- This is a very nice upgrade, I also feel that the usage limits on regular chat feel a bit more lenient post reset it feels around twice as generous with chat prompts for me personally ?
What are your opinions on Grok 4.5?

@devops_prashant Cursor could be an upcoming tool - its collaboration with SpaceXAI is very intriguing!

Most people think AI models “know” facts because they store answers like a giant database.
That’s not really how it works.
A model learns patterns in language, ideas, code, images, and relationships between concepts. When you ask a question, it predicts what should come next based on all those patterns.
That’s why it can be weirdly smart in one answer and confidently wrong in another.
It’s not looking up truth.
It’s generating the most likely continuation.

@DimpleAroro23s if you want to train AI models then it is all but necessary

@Bhavani_00007 Don’t forget about today - there is a livestream at 1pm Eastern Time

Two things are true right now.
GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna launch tomorrow and early testers are calling it the best model they've ever used, describing it as a massive jump that fixes every problem people had with 5.5.
Fable 5 stays extended through July 12, but if Anthropic pulls it from subscriptions after that date, people will cancel Claude and move straight to OpenAI. I don't think Anthropic will actually pull this stunt because they can't afford to lose that many subscribers right when GPT-5.6 launches.
Tomorrow decides a lot. Watch closely.
