Quiet week in terms of model releases with Anthropic's Opus 4.5 being the major one followed by Black Forest Labs Flux.2. Number of AI tools, subscriptions offered Black Friday discounts. I expect there will be a final push of some model updates before the end of the year with a lot of expectations for an updated model from Deepseek Below is my personal website which aggregates links to many of my socials as well as content and community that I curate.

It excels in computer use, tool handling, and reasoning through ambiguity, with pricing now at $5 per million input tokens—two-thirds cheaper than before. Developers note its ability to manage complex projects independently, from design tweaks to full code sessions, while safety tests confirm strong alignment.

A new way to train neural networks: based on a rearrangement of old AI ideas mixed with video-game "save scumming". It's a way to force a "kick" that can rescue certain model types (especially small or exotic topologies) when they're stuck. Blind. Evolutionary.
