If you could only have access to one paid AI model/tool/resource.... What would it be?
If you could have a pro level (~$200) or 8 entry level (~$25 ea) models, what would you pick?

Haiku 4.5 stops the gatekeeping. Most work doesn't need Sonnet... your chatbot, data pipeline, design brainstorm don't require frontier AI. Now individuals can build without VC funding. That's real democratization. themann00.com/haiku-4-5-is...

OpenAI just shifted ChatGPT’s personality team into its core research group. The move signals that tone and behavior aren’t “features” anymore, but fundamental to model design. What’s your read on this pivot?

AI agents are beginning to handle not just tasks, but chains of tasks — planning, executing, and monitoring outcomes without human prompts. The jump from “assistant” to “operator” is coming faster than most expect. ChatGPT users have access to "Agent Mode" - and it is a game-changer!

Everyone talks about “AI replacing jobs,” but I see the opposite at ground level. AI is multiplying the reach of talented individuals. Giving one person the power of a small team. That’s not replacement, that’s amplification. Will we all benefit from AI? Progress and advancement in our fields?

The gap between AI optimists and skeptics is widening. But both sides miss a key truth: progress in AI is uneven. Some fields see breakthroughs weekly, while others haven’t budged in years. Nuance matters. What do you see as breaking through? What has stalled?
