Introducing Griffin, the first model to pass the video Turing test. 48% of people who talked to it live thought it was a real human. Previous systems have had a pass rate <3%. It is #1 on NVIDIA's benchmark for full-duplex AI video. It’s the first Human Interaction Model (HIM).

Introducing Gemini 4 Argon – our new frontier model. It’s built for complex workflows across coding, enterprise knowledge work, and cybersecurity defense – rolling out today to a set of trusted testers through our Fairwind Program.

Introducing Claude Sonnet 5.5, the second model in the Claude 5.5 family. It’s a clear upgrade over Sonnet 5, runs more than 30% faster, and costs up to 30% less for most work.

It's a skill issue. Most graduates are not employable. I spoke about The “Classroom Student” vs “Out of Classroom Student” Theory of Learning at the Africa Data Science conference earlier this year. Good grades are not enough. I interview many of these grads and it's really bad.

This weekend I met a graduate who studied Com Sci and AI at UJ He was telling me that there are no jobs for his specialization in South Africa... He said he is not a SWE or a dev but deep within ML, DL NLPs, Computer Vision etc So basically SA has a low AI market

hard economic times

The reason behind Lagos Traffic in the past 24 hours is so complex. From inadequate road infrastructure to unworthy heavy duty vehicles and impatience. Hope we do better as a people.

I just joined Linkedin. What is wrong with all of them there?

Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 7.0.0. The most significant changes since 6.0.0 are faster installations, stronger sandboxing, native macOS app, vulnerability checks, advisory database, end of macOS 10.15 support and Intel Macs to Tier 3. brew.sh/2026/09/13/homebrew-…

remember jupyter notebooks?

The good news is the open source models aren’t gonna slow down

Imagine matrix multiplication getting regulated

We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so. Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first of these steps. We’ll provide third-party evaluators with permanent, employee-level access to our systems, so that they can verify adherence to our safety measures, report on incidents, and assess models’ alignment during training.

I've spent years searching for a programming language with: - Expressive types - Big ecosystem - Large community - Good performance - Good Devx Here's my ranking across 15 of the most popular languages: hamy.xyz/blog/2026-01_missin…

GPT-6 Astra is here. We hope it will begin to enable a new generation of entrepreneurship, scientific discovery, and building. We believe it is the best model in the world for computer use, professional work, science, coding, cybersecurity, and more. It took us some extra time to ensure that we could meet the safety and alignment standards required for this capability level, but we think you’ll find it worth the wait. It scores 98% on FrontierMath Tier 4, 99.9% on ARC-AGI 3, and 100% on ExploitBench.

GPT-6 Astra is state-of-the-art on FrontierMath Tier 4, ARC-AGI 3, and TerminalBench-4.0. GPT‑6 Astra is also a major advance for scientific discovery, with state-of-the-art performance on Terminal-Bench Science 0.1 and HealthBench Pro.
