What is Ryan Yapping on about today OpenAI releases new "open" models: OpenAI launched two new open-weight reasoning models, GPT-OSS-120B and GPT-OSS-20B, which can run locally on devices like laptops and even phones. Shifting business model: The new OpenAI models signal a move away from a subscription-based, pay-per-API model to a one-time hardware investment, offering more privacy since data stays on the device.
Google DeepMind's "Genie 3": Google DeepMind unveiled Genie 3, a highly advanced world simulator that can generate entire game worlds from natural language prompts, featuring high-fidelity visuals and in-world memory.
New coding benchmark: Claude upgraded its Opus model to version 4.1, which is being praised as the new top-tier model for coding and advanced agentic tasks—at least until the next major release from a competitor.
Amazon backs "Netflix of AI": Amazon is supporting an AI-generated streaming service that allows users to type prompts to create scenes or full episodes, with Disney and other major studios reportedly in talks to license their IPs.
AI for job interviews: A growing number of major companies, including Unilever, Delta, and Vodafone, are using AI to score job interviews by analyzing a candidate's facial expressions, eye movements, and voice for "confidence" and "trustworthiness."
Potential privacy concerns: With the new local-run models and AI-driven interview tools, there's a growing conversation about user privacy and data security, especially with the news that OpenAI is providing ChatGPT to the government for just $1.
Publicity vs. practical use: While the new OpenAI models are generating buzz, some observers are questioning their real-world utility, suggesting the release may be more of a publicity stunt without clear use cases or examples.

What is going on? Layoffs because of AI then WHAM ai isn't actually that good? flip flop flip flop.
Are the data centers actually for LLMs? I have my doubts and our friend @gregisenberg also tells us 30+ observations on the greatest opportunities in AI agents right now. and as always Hedgie gives us some great content
No AI was used in this episode....is that going to be the norm? is AI dying a slow death or accelerating beyond what we can even imagine...or is is all...not real, are the demos real, is the product real, am I real? And what happened to the good ole days oh AI when something was coming out every day that felt life changing? There' s something in the water...but what?
Are LLMs having true issues and why is AI not advancing fast enough…or is it? Ryan discusses why he thinks things are slowing down and why the demos recently are just that…demos, not real life. Take a look at this great video below as well https://youtu.be/wLC7SATDmy8?si=oN2iVr_eDmMGt0uY
