Three years ago this week, Chat GPT was born. It amazed the world and ignited unprecedented investment and excitement in AI. Today, ChatGPT is still a toddler, but public sentiment around the AI boom has turned sharply negative. The shift began when OpenAI released GPT-5 this summer to mixed reviews, mostly from casual users who, unsurprisingly, judged the system by its surface flaws rather than its underlying capabilities.Since then, pundits...

Anthropic's 153-page system card for Claude Opus 4.5 versus OpenAI's 60-page GPT-5 system card reveals a fundamental split in how these labs approach security validation. Anthropic discloses in...

OpenAI researchers have introduced a novel method that acts as a "truth serum" for large language models (LLMs), compelling them to self-report their own misbehavior, hallucinations and policy violations. This technique, "confessions," addresses a growing concern in enterprise AI: Models can be dishonest, overstating their confidence or covering up the shortcuts they take to arrive at an answer. For real-world applications, this technique evolves the creation of more transparent and... Read more ›

Vector databases emerged as a must-have technology foundation at the beginning of the modern gen AI era. What has changed over the last year, however, is that vectors, the numerical representations of data used by LLMs, have increasingly become just another data type in all manner of different databases. Now, Amazon Web Services (AWS) is taking the next leap forward in the ubiquity of vectors with the general availability of... Read more ›

One problem enterprises face is getting employees to actually use the AI agents their dev teams have built. Google, which has already shipped many AI tools through its Workspace apps, has made Google Workspace Studio generally available to give more employees access to design, manage and share AI agents, further democratizing agentic workflows. This puts Google directly in competition with Microsoft’s Copilot and undercuts some integrations that brought OpenAI’s ChatGPT... Read more ›

Just a few short weeks ago, Google debuted its Gemini 3 model, claiming it scored a leadership position in multiple AI benchmarks. But the challenge with vendor-provided benchmarks is that they are just that — vendor-provided. A new vendor-neutral evaluation from Prolific, however, puts Gemini 3 at the top of the leaderboard. This isn't on a set of academic benchmarks; rather, it's on a set of real-world attributes that actual... Read more ›
