Short answer: “No. I believe all the primary/foundation models are pretty similar in their ‘intelligence’ level.” Explanation: Models I use: GPT 5.2, Sonnet 4.5, and Gemini 3 Pro and Flash in my “AgentAutoFlow” framework that runs...

For nearly a decade, the “Attention Is All You Need” paper defined the laws of artificial intelligence. The Transformer architecture was the hammer, and every problem was a nail. But as we close out 2025, the era of “peak Transformer” is behind us. We are no longer...

Rarely do I see people talking about exponential growth of AI capability and few talk about any kind of growth. Maybe I’m hanging out with the wrong people? Too many seem to base their predictions on current state of the art with barely a hat tip to the increase...

Let’s talk about AI trainers “stealing” people’s data or creations. If your child sits in front of YouTube learning how to pair photons using Swain’s Wobulation Theorem, invents wormholes, and goes on to get mega rich by commercializing...

What are some other AI models (post LLM, not using LLM methods) that go beyond the current high-end LLMs and LLMs on the near horizon but are not proven to work yet? Several experimental AI architectures and paradigms push beyond current post-LLM models but remain...

Why is OpenAI a potential problem and what can us puny mortals do to contribute to a solution? OpenAI’s “Chat GPT” has become the most well known of Large Language Models (LLMs). By the way, it isn’t the best. I have a beef or two with OpenAI....

Some of my favorite childhood memories are of sitting in front of a tiny TV hooked up to my Commodore Vic-20 (with tape drive and 300 baud modem) making games and other apps in 1982. Thirty years of freelance coding later, I still love doing it! In early 2022, I...
