Opus 4.7 was clearly rushed out because we’re getting GPT 5.5 tomorrow right?

AI perf/cost barbell strategy: - $100 Codex for most stuff - GLM 5.1 via OpenCode for frontend/design stuff Any reason to still have a Claude Code subscription I'm not thinking of?
Design Arena@Designarena

BREAKING: GLM 5.1 by @Zai_org overwhelmingly dominates design-centric coding tasks amongst open-weight models In the categories featured below, it is most comparable to Opus 4.6 by @AnthropicAI at ~1/8th the cost Huge congrats to the @Zai_org team for this achievement!

@blakeandersonw Took me 3 weeks just to get a personal developer account approved. They seem super overwhelmed with the influx of new AI-assisted devs.

Excited to join @Polymarket as VP of Engineering. I haven’t seen a hungrier team in my career, the talent density here is insane. We’re building the future of how people understand the world. What should we build next? What’s broken? What’s missing? Drop it below. P.s we are hiring world class people in NYC DMs open

They lobotomised Claude again. Sad.

Is there any AI tool that actually does UI Design well? Like building a new app from scratch.

Earn $1000 by selling Qwen as GPT-5. This paper audits third-party "shadow APIs". Bad news: massive deception in the LLM market. - Endpoints fake their model identities. - Accuracy on complex reasoning tasks plummets by up to 50%. - Users pay premium rates for open-source models. arxiv.org/abs/2603.01919

@pashmerepat Please add a $100 tier. The gap in the market between the $20 and $200 tiers is kinda insane.

You don’t even know how much you really use Codex. I sure didn’t. You will find out soon

yeah, i think that's it for OSS. opened the tracker last night. +20 issues in less than 24h. there's absolutely not chance i can make this suistainable, especially since this is a hobby. open to ideas. i can deal with 5-10 issues per day. this is just too much.

Has there been a higher leverage moment for science fiction? Reality is reflexive putty for the right imagination.
