This would almost certainly be the model that solved the Erdős problem, the same one OpenAI wrote about in 'Safety and alignment in an era of long-horizon models'. I thought they might name this one GPT-6, but what's in a name really. Astra is a great one anyway.

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal
Written for: People building with AI

Attorney General Pamela Bondi

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy! Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.

Tencent says it's a early version, and that they will continue to polish it post release, but it already appears to be very strong. They have been increasing their AI spend, looks like it's starting to pay off. Input: $0.834/m Output: $2.501/m

The Ox Alpha model has been confirmed to be a new member of the GLM series from Z․ai. Zhipu confirmed it in a statement to Bloomberg. They will release the weights tonight, so I imagine we will get the announcement, name, and benchmarks shortly.

The identity of Ox Alpha remains a mystery. It's a long-horizon multimodal model with a 1M context window. Last night the top candidate was a new GLM release. This morning people seem less sure of anything. I'm making a thread for guesses and test results.

Anthropic is telling prospective investors that its second-quarter revenue jumped at least 14x to more than $11.5 billion versus the same quarter in 2025, and they now report positive adjusted operating income.

On OpenAI’s support page, updated nine days ago, regarding text watermarking. Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Mistral all signed the EU Code of Practice on Transparency of AI-Generated Content, so all must invisibly watermark text. xAI did not sign.
