AI models' performance are evaluated using benchmarks. One such benchmark is SWE-Bench Pro.
SWE-Bench Pro consists of 1,865 software development problems, designed as long-horizon tasks. These tasks can take professional software engineers anywhere from hours to days to complete.

AI Wearables: The Race Is On
Meta acquired Limitless.
Amazon bought Bee.
OpenAI is developing AI wearable hardware.
Big Tech isn’t just predicting the future, it’s shaping it.
But there’s still room for AI wearable startups to offer ‘bigtechless’ solutions for customers who value privacy.

In my latest newsletter, I wrote about the myth of the "perfect prompt."
TL;DR: It doesn’t exist.
I don’t believe in one-step solutions. No matter how complex or well-crafted a prompt is, it can’t magically instruct an AI to solve a complex problem in a single go.

What is GPT?
G: Generative
The model can create new content, such as poems, articles, stories, or even code. It doesn’t just copy existing text; it generates fresh, contextually appropriate responses.
