OpenAI introduced GPT‑4.5—a research preview of its largest and most knowledgeable model yet. Unlike previous iterations, GPT‑4.5 is designed to improve its natural conversational abilities by scaling unsupervised learning rather than focusing on pure chain‐of‐thought reasoning. In a statement, Sam Altman characterized the model as “a giant, expensive model” that may not dominate traditional reasoning […]
Anthropic has officially launched its successor to the unofficial Claude 3.6, the Claude 3.7 Sonnet. It has also launched ‘Claude Code,’ a new system developed for coders. We’ve already covered the announcement in detail in this article. But now the bigger question is: how good is the new Claude 3.7 Sonnet, and how well does […]
Claude 3.7 Sonnet is the latest iteration in Anthropic’s Sonnet series, blending the traditional language generation mode with an integrated extended reasoning capability. This model is significant because it removes the conventional separation between quick-response inference and deep chain-of-thought reasoning. Developers can now toggle between a “standard mode” for near-instantaneous results and an “extended thinking […]
Today, Elon Musk’s xAI has officially launched its Grok 3 series of models. It includes a pre-trained model similar to GPT-4o, two reasoning models (potentially comparable to OpneAI’s o3-mini and DeepSeek R1), and an AI agent named ‘Deep Search’ (again, something similar to ChatGPT and Gemini Deep Research). The long-awaited announcement is creating a lot […]
Deep Research is now the new front AI platforms that are fighting on. It was textual capabilities before, then coding and reasoning (as late as early 2025, aka now), and now web-researching (or ‘deep research’) capabilities. But how big of a difference does deep research make compared to regular options? How useful is it for […]
AI-powered code editors (or IDEs) have come a long way. Two notable choices among developers include Cursor AI and Windsurf. But which one of these is the better option? (…assuming one of them is better than the other) Both offer some unique functionalities, advanced coding assistance, and LLM support like this one, and both are […]
