“We, we are tapping into that a little bit. So there, there's a, a proof assistant called Colon, which is actually on GitHub. Again, it's like very, very early, but it's starting to be coded now. And that's gonna be the proof assistant for Safeguarded AI. It's kind of a databas...”
“Sources said the platform was rolled out internally in June. However, it's still unclear whether it will get the green light for a public release or when that would happen. Certainly, the product suggests that Cursor, now part of SpaceX AI, is looking to grow beyond their trad...”
“OpenAI has released ChatGPT Work, and we are going to talk about what that means in first impressions. But first, let's finally catch up on the now fully released GPT-5.6 model family. Now, this is the first time that OpenAI has split their model family into a set of classes. ...”
“All right, we're gonna do a quick look at some of the basics here. Uh, 5.6 Pro SOL is out along with Terra and Luna. Now, SOL is only available for paid users. Terra and Luna will be available for free. That is kind of the medium and low. It's kind of imagine in the Claude wor...”
“Here's the thing I will say about this. So one of the things that's interesting, and I think if people— is important for them to remember, and this goes to the 17 thing as well, is like, this is a new model in that like it is not just repeating or reading what it's coming out ...”
“I'm always late for the podcast. bleaching with my bros, but that's all good. All right. They're staying on the benches. They're staying bleached because this, the, the story here is one that we've yapped about before with like thinking that OpenAI was gonna go in these direct...”
“What strikes me is also that I went through some of the reactions. The backstory to this is that Anthropic had 3 teams to review this. One was a group of neuroscientists who had previously done work on these concepts. One was a team from Ilios AI, a research organization. And ...”
“Yeah, the AIs, they're just like us, it turns out, or at least similar enough to be in some sort of weird kind of looking glass similarity anyway. I mean, it's a lot to take in, the whole J-Space thing, 150-page paper, 50 pages of commentary, summaries, interactive demos. When...”
“Now that particular choice I also think reflects one of the big underlying points of this announcement, which is an evolution in how they imagine consumers interacting with AI. We'll come to that in just a minute though, let's talk about the actual model that was released firs...”
“So basically, as the GPT Live model is doing that interaction, it can summon another model like GPT-5.5, or now going forward, 5.6, to go take care of a task like searching or reasoning, even as it keeps the conversation going. Now, you might remember a couple months ago when ...”
“It's very much, I mean, I remember just when I would teach workshops and just talking about ML models or single LLM calls, I would get pushback saying like, well, how do we test these things like rigorously, right? They're non-deterministic and they like, I, they could return ...”

Yeah. So I would say overall program of guaranteed safe AI has a bunch of agendas within it. Safeguarded AI is one of those agendas. That's the name of the program that Nora now leads, and the concept there is not that we would prove that some AI is safe, but that we would tak...
But I guess at least we have a clear articulation of what they stand for and something to build from in their conversations with the government. Speaking of the overlap between the government and AI, Anthropic has appointed former Fed Chair Ben Bernanke to the board of their l...

Very interesting. On the market question, how do you— of course, everybody's using agents these days, right? I've got my little roster of agents on a couple of computers here at home.
Okay, great news. How much— it sounds like a lot of this does depend on— and this isn't like a crazy leap to make, but it sounds like you're envisioning a world where there's a broadly diffused and quite diverse and potentially full of all kinds of problematic AIs in a kind of...
Today on the AI Daily Brief, how to help people thrive with AI. The AI Daily Brief is a daily podcast and video about the most important news and discussions in AI. All right, friends, quick announcements before we dive in. First of all, thank you to today's sponsors, Robots a...
This isn't surprising when you find out that only 30% of employees at organizations with AI agents have actually received agentic training. Now, this study is the latest to show this sort of detail, but is far from the only one out there telling this story. Where we're going t...
And to recap, the big takeaway is that we now have 2 frontier models that perform very differently. Broadly speaking, the early consensus is that Fable 5 is the big model for massive long-running tasks. especially ones where there can be a lot of autonomy, while GPT-5.6 SOL is...
OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol Is Here. And It's Really Freaking Good.
I am very excited to see what this model, a really, really big model, looks like when it's hosted on Cerebras. Because I think that's gonna start changing the vibe of how you make stuff.

Because as the models get bigger, you now need to move the weights and of course what we call the KV cache into the compute units. And that is essentially a data movement problem, right? And it's a data movement problem from the memory to the compute units. And it's a data mov...
It's a classic idea from computer architecture, pipelining and the use of a memory hierarchy to move the data when you need it to where you need it at the right time. And so the nice thing about these AI models is that you do have a graph of computation. And the whole idea of ...
So it's been over half a year. Kind of surprising that they haven't doubled down initially. It was a big deal, but regardless, makes sense that we have a new generation here. And now to applications in business. First up, we've got Etched pools 400+ engineers from NVIDIA, TSMC...
Essentially, this is an independent oversight and advisory board that sits on top of Anthropic's normal board of directors. Importantly, the Benefit Trust has the power to elect or remove one member of the corporate board, which escalates to 2 and then 3 according to time and ...
Awesome. That's, I think, a great one to start with. And thank you for inviting me on the show. I appreciate the opportunity. So I co-founded ZenML. about 5 years ago. So this was really almost at a point where MLOps was really reaching fever pitch on, there was all sorts of c...
So I think if anything, even if you throw away every other tool that we ever used in MLOps, the principles and the learnings that we took from productionalizing these applications at scale still translate and are being rediscovered even at the AIE Worlds where I sometimes hear...

Yeah. And there's just also, they're going to be agents in the economy, and the economy is fundamentally competitive. And if you are not kind of set up to play some of these games, you're going to be the one taken advantage of, right? If only by humans in today's world. One of...
One of my predictions coming into 2026 was that we would start to see a role that I loosely called internally deployed vibe coders. Obviously, there is a huge trend towards forward deployed engineers where companies who are provisioning AI are also placing engineers inside the...
Today, 99% of our engineers use AI tools, more than 70% of pull requests are attributed to local or cloud agents, and our engineers have built 2,500+ agent skills across the software development lifecycle. Those numbers are exciting, but they led us to a much bigger question: ...
