at this point, if you're not using codex/chatgpt, you're truly losing out. 5.6-sol is great, and the resets, basically make it feel limitless https://x.com/thsottiaux/status/2093801758665715784

Fired up Antigravity (not the IDE) for the first time in a long time. Wanted to test out Gemini 3.5 Transcribe with Gemini 3.7 Flash.
It also has multi-speaker identification (experimental when it's 3+ speakers).
Made me think that Granola's days are numbered. OpenOats is still actively being developed, too.

Sam Altman with some sad statements about AI
Sam Altman admits he was wrong on AI's timeline and says society and the economy will adapt more slowly
"I thought when we got to GPT-4, which was back in 2023, that very quickly after that there was going to be much more disruption, software businesses up for grabs right away, than it turned out to be."
"I think I was wrong about a few things, but one in terms of the speed: the economy just has so much inertia."
"People keep doing the same things, buying from the same company, wanting to use their tools the same way. I think this is actually a positive in many ways, and it's going to make this big transition go smoother and slower. I'm grateful for it."
"But it means we've all been too ambitious on timelines. Even with this incredible technology, society and the economy will adapt more slowly."
