@thsottiaux Hot take:
I’d rather have a slightly lower weekly limit if it means the 5 hour limit is permanently gone

@gdb What are the kind of things you’re asking Sol and work that you weren’t asking with previous models?
English
with chatgpt work & sol, i'm finding it incredibly joyful to just ask any question about the business and have it be thoroughly researched and answered.
realizing i have so many questions i wouldn't have bothered asking because they would be too burdensome to answer.

@bindureddy An AI companion is probably the worst thing OpenAI could have released, have they not learned their lesson trying to target consumers?
English
@bchesky Good quote Brian:
“The winner won’t have the best token—it’ll be whoever people trust to hold the real thing behind it.”
English
@emollick Benchmark idea:
testing how well an AI notices and correctly identifies mistakes while completing an unrelated task
English
This was wild: I asked Fable to make a website of the Catalog of Ships from the Iliad, something I did with GPT-4. It did a beautiful job: catalogue-of-ships.netlify.app
...but it also identified that Butler's version of the Iliad actually made two mistakes in the Greek translation!
Ethan Mollick@emollick
Digital humanities is about to be wild. I pasted in the Catalog of Ships from the Iliad, and asked GPT with Code Interpreter to map the origins of the Greeks. With hiccups, it extracted solid information from the text, found modern locations & started building an interactive map

Essential skill you need to master in 2026 in order to build / code:
Waiting for ChatGPT to finish coding

I just let Codex 5.6 Sol Ultra run for almost 8 hours, getting my frontend test coverage from 3% (lol) to 63%. Used up half of my weekly limit, but I have a few resets left. Incredible. Had Fable cross-check the suite. 0 shit tests. Meanwhile, I did chores. Mind blown. 🤯

@BorisMPower Who knew coding in 2026 is mostly doing laundry and cleaning
English
It’s a wild new world for coders, we now have to do chores… 😂

I’m tired of tech and AI coverage being either:
“This changes EVERYTHING!!!”
“AI will destroy humanity.”
So I’m starting an experiment.
Every day, I’ll introduce you to one founder or builder creating something worth knowing about.
No paid placements.
No rage bait.
No empty hype.
Just:
• Optimistic AI and technology news
• Emerging markets and overlooked opportunities
• Useful business ideas
• Honest lessons from people actually building
My goal is to make this the most useful account on X for ambitious people who want to build the future.
What would make an account like this genuinely valuable to you?

@levie I love this quote from the article:
“The difference comes down to management style: Opus behaves like a micromanager with an intern; Fable is a manager with a capable engineer.”
English
Here’s a great post on driving down costs, while maintaining high performance, with frontier intelligence as a manager and lower cost models for the workhorse tasks. This will be the template for what model routing looks like in the future.
“We started this experiment expecting to measure how much Fable’s 2x premium would increase cost. We were surprised to find that Fable’s effective delegation actually decreased cost overall. It specified constraints and outcomes instead of spelling out the implementation, gave feedback instead of making fixes itself, and in most cases never touched the code at all. These are the habits of a good manager.”
The industry is increasingly figuring out what it looks like to mix models together to be able to get targeted performance levels and optimal cost structures.
Of course, the only way to get this is to have a deep understanding of the business problem you’re trying to solve and how to effectively route work to different models. If you’re in the applied layer - whether it’s customer support, legal, finance, or coding - this is how your harness will become a core area of differentiation.

Proud to support the open source community. Thanks for the Nemotron shoutout @jmorgan! 🙌

U.S. open-source models are quickly gaining ground. @Nvidia's newest Nemotron Ultra is fast growing on Ollama and unlocking complex, longer running tasks for developers

@sama There’re good enough at design where I no longer need to outsource design to Claude
English
still sorta breaks my brain to see our models be good at design finally
English
@stanleefounder You told him he’s lucky for getting laid off of his $450k year job? 😭
English
friend got laid off from Meta last year
he was making $450k a year as an engineer
couldn't find a job
I told him he's so lucky - now he has freedom and can build his own company
a year later, he's living in a 1 bedroom apartment with 8 other 19-year old founders and making $500 a month
so cool to see people live their dreams
English
@jun_song Agreed, although I think there are FAR fewer robotics companies than that
English
@AIandDesign Well, that’s if the government doesn’t control the super intelligence
English
Once AI takes over, it's going to liberate us.
Alex Veremeyenko@alex_verem
The biggest scam humanity has collectively accepted as normal, according to Claude
English
@emollick A major problem is general consumers often don’t like AI and have no idea how much value it can actually provide them
English
Very few people know the amount of useful work that the current models can do in Code/Codex/etc. with the right setup
This is not a "rah rah you are so early" post, this is a "AI companies are doing a really bad job explaining what their systems actually do in a clear way" post.
English
@theo I find it funny how OpenAI is seen as seen as more transparent recently, but Sam Altman is being called “Scam Altman” all over X
English
Unprecedented levels of transparency out of OpenAI, really cool to see. They definitely made mistakes but they’re addressing them with full transparency

Updates for Codex and ChatGPT Work users. No nerfing, only good stuff! - We have landed inference optimizations and are passing down savings to all the subscriptions for GPT-5.6 Sol. That should result in around 10% more usage on its own. - We noticed that by changing the context size limit in the product to 372k for GPT-5.6 Sol, up from 272k for GPT-5.5, it resulted in more usage being charged than intended. We have reverted to 272k and will work to roll back out to 372k in the days to come. You should notice that usage drains significantly less after this change. - To understand where the extra usage was coming from, we ran some experiments where reasoning efforts were changed (referred to as juice values under the hood) and have reverted this. - There is slightly more usage of multi-agent than intended in high and xhigh reasoning effort, we are fixing this going forward. Also fixing a small other thing we noticed with auto-review where we can be more efficient. And we continue to have the 5h limit temporarily not apply. Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
