"The generative UI stuff in ChatGPT. We talked about it yesterday and got a chance to demo it. Much better experience with the answers streaming in. I asked it to explain this whole SEC market manipulation thing. I fire off a big prompt and it gets me the answer very quickly, then it explains the laws, then it builds some widgets about different items. It's just a much better UI experience and product experience."
▶ 42:18"I completed my first agentic purchase on Shopify. I bought a raincoat. It was raining and I told Dot in ChatGPT, I need a raincoat. Go find it, buy it, send it to me, just do everything. And it used Shop Pay. And it has arrived."
"I ran into it recently when I asked it to pull temperature data over a hundred-year period... It pulled all the data. I expected that, but it generated a chart and the chart was interactive and as I moved my thumb along the chart there was haptic feedback and I was like, wow, that's a really delightful experience."
"I'll often open ChatGPT and realize there's a very important email that I need to respond to and somehow it got mixed up, and then you kind of wish it pinged you."
"I was running Codex on my PC interacting with that from my phone the ChatGPT app and then I had Codex go and generate reference images with just ChatGPT images because it's pretty good at that."
"I had GPT-6 Astra go and find satellite footage of Thermal and try and create a track in Assetto Corsa."
"It is in my personal pro account. Not on the chat tab, but on the work tab. So if I go to chat.com and then I click on work and then I check the model picker, I got GPT-6 Astra here. Take it for a spin. If you have a ChatGPT pro account, this is your weekend. Tell your family you're locking in."
"I found Neural Frames by actually going to ChatGPT and saying I have a Suno song, I want to make an AI music video and I want to do not a lot of work — what do you recommend? It recommended Neural Frames."
"I found Neural Frames by actually going to ChatGPT and saying, 'I have a Suno song, I want to make an AI music video and I want to do not a lot of work — what do you recommend?' It recommended Neural Frames and then I went there."
"I had the output and then I wanted to generate an image based on that and take it on the go, but I wanted to be able to close my laptop and still be able to access it. So I had to copy the context window into ChatGPT, just the normal app, so then I could access that information and continue to transform it."
"At the very basic level, if you wanted to ask ChatGPT for one image, you can now ask Codex for a hundred images and it can just go and do it in a for loop. But also you can just ask ChatGPT how do I do that and it will tell you how to do it."
"If you wanted to ask ChatGPT for one image, you can now ask Codex for a hundred images and it can just go and do it in a for loop. But also you can just ask ChatGPT how do I do that and it will tell you how to do it."
"I've personally noticed as an early adopter of LLMs that my screen time has switched much more towards ChatGPT and LLMs and deep research reports. I've been noticing that I'm much more in like the hour a day on chat versus hour a day on Instagram."
"On my phone, I would have the ChatGPT app. And then the ChatGPT app on my phone could talk to Codex on the desktop. But I never actually needed to open the ChatGPT desktop app."
"I've been seeing glimpses of this with ChatGPT images. I wanted to know the rate of air conditioning in every European country. I said, 'Go get the data and then generate me an image, a graphic of that.' Of course, it's not interactive. It's not HTML-based. It could be so much richer."
"I went down a bit of a rabbit hole designing furniture Saturday night in ChatGPT, and I was pulling out my phone this morning showing Tyler some of it."

"The desktop app that I used was Codex. And then when I wanted to interact with ChatGPT in a chat flow, I would do a new tab. I was doing some research on the most recent story and I just dumped it in Codex — explain how this story is different than what happened with Honey — and it just did it like it was ChatGPT."
▶ 20:05"I got a PC for the first time. I'm like I don't know how to do anything on this thing. But you just set up Codex with computer use and you just talk to it and you tell it what you want to do and it just does."
"I actually went to Codex and was like, find a bunch of apartments that could potentially be on the market for way below market rates because there are public filings of the loan delinquency. I found some interesting stuff."
"I had Codex go shop for shoes for me. I wear a size 14, they're not always in stock. I was like, I want you to actually go and open the website, take a screenshot, make sure the size 14's in stock before you recommend it to me."
"You can just ask Codex or any AI agent to go and do it and it'll just do it and come back to you."
"I was playing around with computer use over the break. Had a lot of fun. I had Codex try and beat Balatro, this poker style game that I like to play on PC. It did okay. It wasn't — it was a little slow still and I don't think it actually won the full game, but it's fun watching it play a new game."

"I was trying to get Codex to send me a text message when it was done, just using computer use and iMessage, and it took a long time and was very, very careful. Personally, I haven't had any odd behaviors."

"We made a whole vibe-coded website in Codex for just the latest episode of Nick Bostrom on Joe Rogan. I wanted it to look like a UFC fight card and a fight promotional website, and it doesn't look like any normal AI slop."

"I did an Apple Vision Pro call with someone who got one the same week. With the Apple Vision Pro, there was never a moment where I was like, 'Oh, I would love to be able to put this down onto a flat surface because I usually wouldn't use it on a flat surface.' I was trying to game on it, did all these crazy things to try and wire up a PlayStation into it. It was a huge hassle. Never really worked. There was always a ton of latency."
▶ 20:37"Has Demis ever watched a movie in VR? It's electric. Apple Vision Pro — it's fantastic."
"We have one in the studio. We've been having fun with it. I still think it's an incredible piece of technology. I watched Dunkirk in it and I watched Godfather Part Two and Master and Commander. Really, you want to be in the cinematic feel, feel like you're on a warship."

"We had an Apple Vision Pro in the studio this morning and the team was trying it out and laughing and enjoying the demo. I use the Vision Pro every night. I don't know if that helps or hurts my credibility."
"Hand tracking in Apple Vision Pro, my favorite device, is fantastic."
"Handtracking on the Apple Vision Pro, my favorite device, is fantastic."
"I'll watch our entire Lawrence of Arabia from start to finish in a Vision Pro. That's me on a plane. Like I love that thing for movie watching."
"I have a Vision Pro. I think I have Apple TV Plus and all the tiers there. I probably just have to download the laptop."

"The self-driving capability is 100% ready to rock. Brandon on our team was saying that 95% of the miles he's driven in the car have been in Full Self-Driving mode. You add a little bit of teleop for that 5% that's not there. The only time you're driving a Tesla if you have Full Self-Driving on the latest hardware is pulling into your garage or negotiating a parking lot."
▶ 55:59"We've all been using the Tesla Full Self-Driving. It's incredible and we're waiting for this to come to every car company."

"I've been using Dot a ton and I think having an agent that just runs in the background and just tries to go find little opportunities for you is amazing. It just catches things in my email that I never would have gone through or taken the time to do, and it just sends me a little message being like, 'Hey, you asked for this and you should follow up because they said that they would do it.'"
▶ 15:01"Dot, in this case, went and checked a week later and said, 'Oh, they haven't done it, you should follow up with them,' and those types of little follow-ups are more useful."

"The multiplayer nature of MidJourney — when I jump into the MidJourney Discord, the first thing I see is your crazy prompt. You're 12 levels deep, prompt injecting, thinking of different keywords, doing different SRFs for style references. And I think the reason MidJourney has been successful is because it's so opinionated and it's not trying to just be a stock photo generator."

"It's not a Celsius where I'm going to crash."
"I had to go back to Opus and it felt like a huge step back. And I thought to myself immediately, this is as much of a strategic asset as our grid is."
"FIA is claiming credit for online sales it didn't actually drive, in violation of many digital platforms' policies. Bloomberg tested the FIA mobile browser extension across more than 50 websites and found that during the checkout process, FIA opened a background tab without user interaction and injected its own referral code that overrode legitimate referrals from other publishers."
"You went through this with Higgsfield where you're using Codex to make videos. And somehow Higgsfield has like $500 of yours now and it's locked in there, and it's unclear how you can get it."
"I used to be an FOV maxer. I used the HoloLens and was like, 'This is unacceptable.'"
"MegaLag, the YouTuber that did the Honey exposé — it was an interesting deep dive that got 20 million views because it was using a hidden redirect near checkout to replace the creator's affiliate tag with Honey's."
"I went to Meta AI in the Instagram app and asked, 'What should I do more of in order to grow my account?' But I got this very generic LLM response — referencing a blog post from a social media management SaaS company. You would think there would be an opportunity to give creators personal super intelligence to just be better creating on the platform."
"I actually did get a bunch of them for family members during COVID and we used them like once, and then they started collecting dust. They worked as like picture frames basically."
"I found out that I had seven passwords because I had a keypad, a code, a Meta password, an Instagram password, a Facebook password, an Oculus VR password. And I showed this whole process of like what it takes to just take it and then play a game. And it was like 15 minutes."
"There are layoffs at Sonos, the smart speaker maker. It's been a rough period for Sonos, battered by customer complaints after a disastrous app rollout. They need a product that actually plays the song that you want without a 10-minute lag when you open the app."
"Will Manitis says, 'It brings me no joy to report I spent a year wondering why I was constantly sleepy and had a low sleep score on my Whoop. That was totally cured by simply stopped wearing the Whoop.'"
"Xbox is cutting 3,200 jobs by the end of next year. It's not because of artificial intelligence. The newly appointed Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has announced that Xbox will lay off 3,200 staffers by the end of 2027. In some parts of the company, work has to pass through as many as 14 layers of management. In a typical year, Xbox lost 64 cents for every dollar it invested."
"All they did was cannibalize their existing business. They didn't expand the market for console gamers. All they did was have gamers who would have paid way more to play these games pay way less. And Microsoft ate it. They expected to have 75 million Game Pass subscribers by this year. They have like 30 million. And that number is actually decreasing."

"It made a lot of sense to stuff Grok in X as like this helpful little answer bot for community notes and questions on facts... having Grok summarize it. That seemed like a good use case."
"Elon's been very, very cautious with the words on when the progress will come from that team on Grok, on different versions."
"They provide software that helps train ChatGPT and Claude and Grok and the major AI models."
"Grok 4.7 was yesterday. And Grok 4.7, no one was — even Elon was like, 'Okay, we're not jumping straight to the frontier with this. It's going to be a couple more iterations, but we're excited with the progress.'"
"If you hold that constant, watermelon from MSL is going to catch up, DeepMind's going to catch up — Grok is going to train to that level and so you're going to have four, five, six, seven really capable competitors."
"It's official — Super Grok is saying goodbye to companions. We were debating whether there's actually a business here once you break the seal. Replika has seemed to get to scale, but this is the same thing as the Sora discourse."
"Hot bot summer is over. Super Grok is saying goodbye to companions."

"Grok 4.6 is roughly the same performance as Fable 5 Max at an 85% discount. 80% cheaper for input tokens and 88% cheaper for output tokens. Grok 4.6 is significantly better at difficult tasks and knowledge work. It combines Opus-class intelligence and polish with very low cost and high speed."

"I'm interested to know how you've processed the story of Palantir's forward deployed engineering strategy.

"Anduril has a platform, Palantir has a platform."

"The work that DeepMind does on Gemini and the models made a lot of sense to vend into YouTube. There's a little Gemini button when you're on YouTube and you can just go to a one-hour long podcast and say when did they talk about this and it'll just answer you. Gemini models help with ads. They get vended everywhere. There's a Gemini button in Chrome. There's also a Gemini button in Google Docs. There's also a Gemini button in Gmail."
"GPT-5.5, Gemini 3.1 Pro preview are all around just north of a thousand ELO on chess benchmark."

"Going into the Gemini app right now and seeing that there's 3.5 Flash but then you have to go back to 3.1 Pro. I think 3.1 Pro is the most advanced model, but they default you to 3.1 Flash Light. I would expect them to jump forward to four, but I think they're going to do 3.5 Pro."
"It's very odd going into the Gemini app right now and seeing that there's 3.5 Flash but then you have to go back to 3.1 Pro."
