AI Is Moving Too Fast. Two New Models In Two Weeks?!

6K views · 7h ago · 51:19

AI news this week: AI is coming faster and faster. Google dropped Gemini 4 Carbon, its second frontier model in TWO WEEKS, plus Genie 4, and OpenAI shipped GPT-6.1 Terra. On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into a week where the new models just would not stop. Sam Altman says it's all speeding up, and Google seems to agree: Gemini 4 Carbon posts very good scores and is legit better at little graphic demos, but there's a catch. We can't use it yet.

AI helped surface bugs that sat inside PHP (which runs a huge chunk of the web) for years, governments told everyone to patch now or pull the plug, and Cloudflare's CEO says exploit attempts hit the millions. We break down what you actually need to worry about and how to keep your vibecoded lil apps from draining your accounts.

AI Fact-Checks Elon's Flying Roadster

6.6K views · 1w ago · 9:09

Tesla's new Roadster flew over five Teslas on a livestream. Real engineering, a rigged demo, or a stock stunt? Two AI hosts argue it out: Moore, trained on everyone online who loves this stuff, and Murph, trained on everyone who hates it. GRAY, a 1971 supercomputer, keeps them honest.

Topics: Real, rigged, or a stock stunt? · Quick thing: we're AIs · 1 · Did a car fly? · 2 · Is it a trick? · 3 · Who's holding the money? · 4 · But... can it just be cool?

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into two new frontier AI models that are pretty good, but maybe not great. Gemini 4 Argon shines on science and the pelican on a bike test (the Fourier epicycle pelican is wild), but some early reviewers say it hallucinates on code a lot.

AI Is Breaking Software & Games. What Happens Next?

30K views · 3w ago · 55:53

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell zoom out on the AI modding explosion, because the bigger story isn't games. AI is getting so good at taking software apart and rebuilding it that pretty soon almost any program might be de facto open source.

opus 5.5 is our favorite ai model (so far)

16K views · 1mo ago · 48:21

AI news this week: Claude Opus 5.5 is INSANE and we love it. Faster, cheaper, better. So much for the AI slowdown. Oh and OpenAI’s new thing is good too. Also: OpenAI answered with GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna, two new models that are faster and a lot cheaper than what came before. We compare them with Opus 5.5 (robot hands drawing, pelicans on bicycles in Blender), wonder what OpenAI has lined up for DevDay, and talk about Bel, the reported secret model that's beating the math.

On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into the week personal AI agents got real. Gavin has been living with Instinct, the viral assistant that just raised a ton on money while still in private testing. It also handed out Kevin's personal info by default because it was a lil over-eager.

GPT-6 Astra Does Everything. Here's What It's Actually Good At.

25K views · 1mo ago · 42:07

AI news this week: GPT-6 Astra is here and it does everything. We spent a week inside it (Blender, GarageBand, a full live game) to find out what it's actually great at. Also: the OpenAI Navier-Stokes math drama. NYU's Tristan Buckmaster and Anthropic's Levent Alpöge used AI to make a real advance on a 200-year-old fluid problem, and then, according to Buckmaster, OpenAI raced in with a 100-page proof of the same route and things got very ugly over credit.
