Beskrivelse

The End of Tokenmaxxing: How Lindy's DeepSeek Switch Signaled AI's Great Efficiency Reckoning - July 5, 2026 After two years of "tokenmaxxing," where companies burned as many AI tokens as possible without regard to cost, enterprises have hit a spending wall. The efficiency turn crystallized when AI agent startup Lindy moved its traffic off Anthropic's Claude to the cheaper open weight Chinese model DeepSeek, reporting roughly ninety percent lower inference costs on migrated routes with performance holding steady. We dig into the economics of inference, the incentive reversal from growth to efficiency, and the geopolitical wrinkle of Western firms leaning on Chinese open weight models to stay on budget.

episode Grok 4.5's Split Verdict: Best Agentic Tool Use on the Board, a Doubled Hallucination Rate, and the New Math of Model Trust - July 11, 2026 cover

Grok 4.5's Split Verdict: Best Agentic Tool Use on the Board, a Doubled Hallucination Rate, and the New Math of Model Trust - July 11, 2026

Grok 4.5's Split Verdict: Best Agentic Tool Use on the Board, a Doubled Hallucination Rate, and the New Math of Model Trust Grok 4.5's first independent report card is in, and it is split down the middle: the best agentic tool use score on the Artificial Analysis board and a number one claim on the SWE marathon, alongside a hallucination rate that doubled from 25 percent to 54 percent. Chris and Laura unpack how a model can know more yet be wrong more often, why grounded professional work and unsupported recall behave so differently, and how enterprises should route tasks in a market with no single best model.

GPT Live: OpenAI's Full Duplex Voice Model and the Split Between Talking and Thinking - July 9, 2026

GPT Live: OpenAI's Full Duplex Voice Model and the Split Between Talking and Thinking On July 8, 2026, OpenAI launched GPT Live, a new generation of voice models that can listen and speak at the same time. Chris and Laura trace the two architectural changes behind it: a full duplex design that makes interaction decisions many times per second, and a delegation layer that quietly hands hard questions to a frontier model in the background while the conversation keeps flowing. They also dig into the human evaluations, the voice specific safety work, and what is still missing at launch. Hosted by Chris and Laura.
