BREAKING - OFFICIAL RESULTS: GPT-5.6 Sol by @OpenAI is 1st overall on Design Arena with an Elo of 1353. This puts GPT-5.6 Sol above Claude Fable 5 by @AnthropicAI and in the same performance band as GLM 5.2 by @Zai_org on frontend design. This is an 18-position and 60-point Elo leap from GPT-5.5. GPT-5.6 Sol also establishes a new Pareto frontier for preference vs. speed, faster than any model at this performance. Congratulations to the @OpenAI team on the launch!


🚨SCOOP: MY Friend at Anthropic says things are VERY tense internally. Dario's running tough meetings — GPT-5.6 Sol is strong and Grok 4.5 is right on Opus's heels. Pulling Fable from subs on July 12 would trigger mass cancellations (why keep Max for Opus 4.8?), so they're now pushing to keep Fable 5 in subs permanently.

Br'er Fable isn't going anywhere. Extended another week.

The most interesting product mechanics / growth writing today is @tomaspueyo 's writing on seeing religions as products. (warning: paywalled) Very interesting comparison of how Islam / Christianity are designed for growth (as opposed to a Judaism for instance), and how that manifests itself in 'product adoption'.

A nice but overlooked command in Hermes Agent is /steer. This allows you to send a message that will be delivered after the next tool call, guiding the agent when you tell it's moving in the wrong direction, without stopping it (wasting tool calls) and then redoing the prompt. I had a real-life example of this so I made a short video explaining what happened, and how /steer worked so well. Check it out!

Watched Project Hail Mary (I liked the book). What immediately struck me was how stupid and useless the ship's computer was. LLMs have probably already broken the vast majority of sci-fi worldbuilding done over the last thirty years. Probably explains some of the author ire.


He takes scamming to a whole new level


Major allegations about an Apple employee who joined OpenAI in Jan 2026, kept a laptop, found an exploit in Apple's systems and stole files over a multi-week time. This is similar to what Anthony Levandowski was accused of doing by Google back in 2018
