GPT-5.6 13 days ago

+1. I've been only using Sonnet/Opus these days for UI work because GPT 5.5 just can't do any of that. Its just really terrible. Eager to give this one a try.

Thanks for the reply, Atty. So I guess I'm holding it wrong?

For some reason, I can't use the camera while in Live mode. The only option I see is the plus item, which does show the camera, but when I open it up and ask "Are you seeing my camera?" it will always say no and recommend me to open it.

Feels like the official camera icon does not show up for me? iPhone 13, ChatGPT Pro subscription.

Grok 4.5 14 days ago

Every time I get excited about Grok’s performance on benchmarks and demo videos, I test it myself and end up disappointed.

I'll give this one a try with a grain of salt and lowering my levels of expectations

I'm very eager to test this for brainstorming!

One thing I noticed is that we lost vision feature for some reason on the live chat?

This was an extremely useful feature. Not sure if it’s a regional thing or that they just removed that from the current live chat.

I imagine it will be even more useful with this new version.

Very cool. Not cool bringing Brazil’s loss to Norway again. We're already devastated. No need to keep beating someone on the ground. :(

"Consumers have developed pattern recognition for AI-generated content."

The irony of reading an article that talks about AI slop that clearly seems to have been written by AI. Hey, I could be completely wrong, and it wasn't, but there are so many flags.

Do I care? Not really, but whoever wrote this is right. I guess we developed a pattern recognition for these things

Here is a trend I'm noticing:

- GPT-5 mini costs $0.25/$2 and will be discontinued in December.

- GPT-5.4 mini costs $0.75/$4.5 and is supposed to be the replacement.

- GPT-5.4 nano costs $0.2/$1.25 and, while it ranks better in benchmarks than GPT-5 mini, it's not even close when you test it in real scenarios.

So you're left being forced to go to GPT 5.4 mini if you use 5 mini today.

The same thing is happening here as their “Luna“ model will cost $1/$6.

Can't we just stay with the models we actually want? I don't need GPT 5.4 mini. GPT-5 does the job.

Maybe it’s the realization that it was never that cheap in the first place and they're forcing us to upgrade in a slow and painful way.

UX suggestion to make going thought this much faster:

1. Frame each option with one key (1,2,3,4). User press 2, select the second option

2. Let the user change options if they want until they press Enter. Enter submits the answer.

3. Once submitted, another Enter brings the next one

What is a bit unique is: 1) we built it in Rust

The first unique characteristic is that it was built in Rust? Why does it matter from a user perspective? I was expecting the first point to be something that would convince me to check it out.

Unless the goal is to find people to collaborate on building the software. I got a bit confused.

Looking good regardless :)

That’s a supply and demand issue. If there were more clients than lawyers, I can totally see a reality where they speed things up because now in one week they can work on 20 cases instead of 2, thus 10x more money, but as you said, it doesn't seem to be the reality of the market.

edit: tldr; it does not seem in their best interests to be more efficient at this point

This is so cool! I'd love for it to have a front-page-like layout where "trending" news would have a bigger placement in the UI

Anyway, great work :)

This article doesn't address writing code with AI, just code review. My issue with agentic coding is that I make numerous micro-architectural decisions while programming. I almost never have a full spec up front and develop one as I consider what I am writing.

working with AI forced me to write better specs but the way I write today is very different. I typically open Codex and have Linear MCP connected where my chat with the AI will end up writing the issue. Its a lot of back-end-forth where I tell what I want, the AI does all the code scanning, write something, I correct something, etc

The value for me is exactly that I tell what I want, the AI verify in the actual code if that's the path that makes more sense or not. In the end I have a pretty detailed spec that I'm much more confident is the correct path.

I find the spec easier to review than a huge PR so typically when executing is much faster and aligned with what I want.

The grill-me skill from Matt Pocock is great for this (https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/blob/main/skills/produc...)

I hate video calls, but sometimes is so much easier (and really faster) to align with someone over a complicated issue. feels almost counter intuitive but the more complicated the matter the easier to align over voice / video than text in my view
