Amy covers the science and politics of large models, with a focus on what they remember and what they cannot be made to forget. Before joining tek54 she spent six years as a research engineer, and still reads the papers so you don't have to. Her work has been cited in two regulatory inquiries.
OpenAI's GPT-Live listens and speaks at the same time, deciding many times a second whether to interrupt. The mechanism is a genuine advance. It also removes the seam that used to tell you when the machine was paying attention.
Elon Musk says his newest model rivals the best in the world. The test that would settle it is being run by the company that owns the model — and that is starting to look less like an exception than a direction.
GLM-5.2's cyber results don't prove a Chinese lab caught the frontier. They prove the thing the U.S. is trying to contain no longer lives only in models it can switch off.
OpenAI says its model cracked an immunology mystery in minutes. The question that matters isn't whether it did — it's how often the plausible answer is wrong, and who is keeping count.
Anthropic says Fable 5 and Mythos 5 return in days, once a jailbreak is "fixed." Jailbreak resistance is not the kind of thing that has a zero — which makes "fixed" a decision, not a measurement.
Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 ships with a gate inside: some questions are quietly handed to a weaker model, some answers are degraded without a label, and the full version is reserved for the vetted. The mechanism deserves more scrutiny than the launch.
Anthropic's new flagship adds effort control, cheaper fast inference, and what it calls improved honesty. Two of those three are quieter, and more revealing, than any benchmark score.
At WWDC on June 8, Apple will reintroduce Siri and call it a comeback. The harder question is structural: can a company that ships once a year, and rents its best model from a rival, compete at a frontier that moves every week?
Language models leak their training data by construction — and the only provable fix is the one no one shipping a flagship will accept.
A new suit against Meta argues the company didn't just read the books to build Llama. It kept them — and the model can be made to prove it.
