The first thing we learn about the next GPT is a deprecation note Custom compaction instructions are on their way out, and apparently they can make the new models drop reasoning. Only in the docs, no release, no date Very on brand for my week

Calling this a rumor until Alibaba says something Still, Qwen Chat's code has a new default for agent mode. Qwen4 Max Preview is replacing Qwen3.8 Max Fable 5.2 and Gemini 4 Carbon already this week, and now Qwen wants in 🫠

Two new frontier models dropped this week and these two OpenAI guys are just in the replies saying "good morning" and "good evening" to each other 😭 These two are way too calm right now.

Every AI lab has made that pelican ride a bike by now. Google's CEO just showed up with Gemini 4 Carbon and gave the pelican an entire video game, a map of the Mountain View campus, and a bell button 🚲 At this point the pelican deserves a Google badge and a parking spot.

Launch day for Gemini 4 Carbon and it's already losing to a model from yesterday Fable 5.2 edges it out on the exact same prompt. Ouch, Google

Google waited for Fable 5.2 to drop, then Carbon showed up scoring higher on CursorBench AND costing less per task. Petty, but effective. And I still can't use it because it's Ultra only πŸ™ƒ

Strongest model, now available* *if you pay for Ultra. Pro users get this lovely crystal animation instead πŸ’Ž
Gemini 4 Carbon is now available. It’s our strongest model, built to dig deeper, handle long-horizon tasks, and multi-step reasoning. If Argon is great for complex tasks, Carbon is the model you bring in for your hardest problems.

Google spent all day pretending Gemini 4 Carbon didn't exist, then finally dropped it in Antigravity... for Ultra users only. The rest of us just get to watch other people post screenshots.

Was wondering what else we could even squeeze out of prompt-to-app, and Fable 5.2 just casually generated a full neon kart racer in an asteroid field. Custom track, racers, even the name. Prism Highway goes absurdly hard.

Anthropic dropped Fable 5.2 and now everyone's scrambling. Gemini 4 Carbon is already leaking out of Vertex, OpenAI has to panic-pick between Astra and Sol, and Qwen 4 is late. And it's only Tuesday.

Elon roasting Grok 4.7 before 4.8 even drops is peak Elon. "Will bear no resemblance, thankfully" + admitting the new one isn't even incredible yet. Zero PR filter. Honestly respect it.
Replying to @cradrrat
We have dumped JAX/SGLang and rewritten the entire RL and inference stack from scratch in C/C++, which took some extra time. Training (aka pre-training) is done. Lot of cleanup was needed on the SFT data to get that mostly right. Now, 4.8 is in RL and the evals are starting to climb. We will do a soft rollout to Bot users later this week and see how it goes. Grok 4.8 will bear no resemblance to 4.7 (thankfully). It is not yet incredible, but, this time, the foundations are built right, so I expect it to evolve to be something special.

Gemini 4 Carbon is live and Google is acting like it isn't. Works on Vertex, explicitly knows its own name, and exists in zero documentation. Anthropic gave Fable 5.2 a whole red carpet rollout. Google dropped Carbon with plausible deniability.
Gemini 4 Carbon is live on Vertex AI 🟒 We just called gemini-4-carbon from a brand-new Google Cloud project on the global endpoint. It answered as "Gemini 4 Carbon", and the response's model version field says gemini-4-carbon. It isn't in the Gemini API model list or Google's Vertex catalog yet, and Google hasn't announced it. First reports came from @White1637402 around 2 AM ET.

We spent years obsessed with whether machines could think, and somewhere in the silence, they learned how to make something beautiful. Every frame, every note, Fable 5.2. And this is only day one.

Logan tweeting just "Gemini" hits exactly like my landlord texting "call me." Something's definitely coming. I just already know it's not coming to me.

SemiAnalysis's take on why it's Fable 5.2 instead of 5.5 is spot on. It took #1 on their GDPx board, but mostly because coding and chip design carried the average. Quant, legal, and hardware barely budged, and AI research is basically capped at Sonnet 5.5 levels. Best model on the market right now. Just more of a solid upgrade than a generational leap.
Fable 5.2 debuts at the top of the GDPx leaderboard scoring 16.4%. (1/7)🧡

Anthropic dropped Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2 today, and OpenAI's countermove is… teaming up on a $200 Game Boy. Unbothered. Moisturized. In their lane. Must be nice.

OpenAI really looked at Fable 5.2 and said "okay but what if Dots had MORE COMPUTERS" 😭 @thsottiaux the replies are on fire. Just ship the model.
Dots can now control many machines in addition to its own little cloud computer that we provide by default.
