Is It Out Yet?

I am more interested in the next Qwen, deepseek, Gemma, Mistral, whathaveyou

AOG models are fine, but who knows if my company will be approved by WH to use their next model.

Besides, from a technical point of view the new open models seem to be where most leaps are being made so even if you don't use them it is good to keep an eye on them.

Since when is AOG a well-known abbreviation?

I presume you mean Anthropic-OpenAI-Google?

probably trying to stop saying SOTA because that has some weird implication that's not warranted at this point.

What's that?

you can't say they're state of the art if we know that there are better models that they're not allowed to release to the public

cyanydeez |root |parent |previous [-]

thats independtly verified and not just a gold spraypaint on bloated models that are indifferentialable from open weights.

Wow i can't remember the last time i used Gemini or heard techies talking about Google ai.

I'm old enough to remember that around last Fall people were declaring Google AI dead and then they came out with Gemini 3.1 Pro and there was a bunch of discussion about how Google was back and was going to end up ultimately beating the rest because they have their own TPUs, vast amounts of data, etc.

My guess is that Google will (finally) release Gemini 3.5 Pro and it will be pretty decent compared to OpenAI and Anthropic and we'll see discussions again about how Google is "back". Wash, rinse, repeat.

> Google was back and was going to end up ultimately beating the rest because they have their own TPUs

Meanwhile Claude, ChatGPT, etc all now run at least partially on TPUs. At the same time, Anthropic, Meta, and others are buying TPU hardware directly for their own data centers.

Did they win with the best frontier model? Not with one they've made, but all the best frontier models do run on TPUs, and Google is making plenty of money along the way.

They also lost bunch of their top AI researchers for Meta, OpenAI and Anthropic.

I use it every day through both my pixel phone and the website itself on desktop.

If we put this on kalshi or whatever do you think they would release fable 5 faster?

swingboy |next |previous [-]

These guesstimate release dates seem…soon. Usually the Polymarket markets are pretty accurate and really accurate when an insider at one of the companies puts a bet.

We used to get excited about games, movies... books...

I'm pretty excited for Adrian Tchaikovsky's next installment in his The Tyrant Philosophers series. I swear there isn't a book he could put out that I'll think is dull, but this series in particular hits home for me.

...we still do?

maipen |root |parent [-]

Yes, yes we do.

I like having more things to look up to.

We are in the golden age of AI. It will never be like this again.

ChatGPT 5.6 is out for some of us

ipython |next |previous [-]

I mean technically Fable was out... but then was pulled. I wouldn't then say "no" to "is it out yet?"

recursive |root |parent |next [-]

Perhaps it should say "is it out right now?"

AI slop and potential email grab scheme.

effnorwood |next |previous [-]

not yet, but soon.

Edit button exists but isn't clickable? Little boxes look exactly like Claude's UI.

Grade A slop.
