So many new AI releases this week! Including xAI’s Grok 4.5 and OpenAI’s GPT 5.6, we discuss their coding, reasoning, and benchmark performance. OpenAI also introduced a new full-duplex voice mode, which lets users speak and listen at the same time, and may preview future AI interfaces.
We also discuss Chinese AI labs building their own chips to reduce reliance on NVIDIA and imported hardware. And finally, a few updates on Meta’s new image and video models, ByteDance’s SeeDream image model, and Cloudflare’s payments API for micropayments and AI agent access.sis)
