I signed up and got access within a few days. They even gave me free credits for a while


That's gone now. They do drops from time to time, but their compute platform is saturated.


Yes they conveniently forget about disclosing prompt processing time. There is an affordable answer to this, will be open sourcing the design and sw soon.


Very much doubt, what you’ll see is it killing off paralegal work.

In most jurisdictions legal advice is a regulated and restricted activity. Qualified lawyers today get themselves into trouble without AI advising on areas they have no right to practice in.


You’ll pass the sniff test, they don’t.

Be careful they might try and use your identity to then commit more fraud.


For a few weeks the Codex model has been cursed. Recommend sticking with 5.1 high , 5.2 feels good too but early days


For the average office task they don’t seem far off being competent, at least to the average workers quality.

Ai builder with gpt5 + workflow triggers is very capable already. 1-2 more model generation hops needed plus a bit more “agent” plumbing before its game over for the excel and word jobs.


Which average office tasks would those be? Writing project proposals? Putting budget numbers into a shared spreadsheet? Composing a progress report? Preparing presentation slides for an executive status update meeting? Writing performance reviews? Taking mandatory compliance training? Going to planning meetings?

One or two of these, I could see. Automated progress reports would be nice. But a lot of them aren’t about document generation, but about human accountability, about being a person who commits to something in writing. Automating away paper pushers means all the accountability lands on their bosses, leaving them nowhere to hide. It will be quite something if we manage to rewrite the corporate social context like this.


Gemini 3 would rip through that problem, but equally you could slice the video with existing open source tooling such as FFMPEG then combine with blender for the video curation. Gemini 3 could probably write you the workflow as well.


What part would Gemini do well at? What would you feed it?


How many crashes per human Uber mile?


Why not compare the numbers to bus, train or other mass-transit fatalities?

I suppose because in the U.S. we are forever stuck in our car culture.


How many crashes per mile for Waymo etc. would be the more interesting metric - if the competition has better numbers there is no excuse for risking people's safety with inferior tech


Those numbers are readily available. https://waymo.com/safety/impact/

1 in 4 million, more than an order of magnitude better than Tesla.


Last sentence in the article.


Sorry don’t like the max model, feels like it needs a lot more guiding. The plans it writes however are better, so I tried feeding it back in (meta prompt style) and working okay so far. Very large repository.
