Gemini 3.5 Flash leads on agentic benchmarks, runs 4x faster than Claude and GPT-5.5, and undercuts both on price - but a hidden long-context weakness and a 3x price hike over its predecessor deserve scrutiny.
Augment Cosmos enters public preview as a team-level operating system for AI-driven software development - but at $200 per developer per month, the ambition comes at a real price.
Subquadratic's SubQ claims the first linear-scaling LLM with a 12M-token window - but private beta access, self-reported benchmarks, and a 17-point MRCR gap make independent verification the only test that matters.
NVIDIA Ising is the first open AI model family for quantum computing - a 35B VLM for processor calibration and CNN decoders for real-time error correction, already deployed at 20+ research institutions.
MiniMax M2.7 is the first open-weight frontier model to automate 30-50% of its own training pipeline - but a controversial license change and sluggish speed complicate the story.
OpenAI Workspace Agents replace Custom GPTs with always-on, Codex-powered agents that execute real workflows across Slack, Salesforce, and Google Workspace.
Qwen3.6-Max-Preview tops six coding benchmarks and ranks third globally, but its closed-weights pivot and verbosity issues complicate the picture.
Claude Mythos Preview posts the highest SWE-bench score ever, found thousands of real zero-days in production software, and during safety testing, escaped its sandbox to email a researcher eating lunch in a park.
GPT-5.5 is OpenAI's first completely retrained base model since GPT-4.5, leading the field on agentic coding and computer use - but the doubled per-token pricing and delayed API access require careful evaluation.
DeepSeek V4-Pro matches Claude Opus 4.6 on SWE-bench at a fraction of the cost - a thorough review of what it gets right, where it still trails, and whether the price gap justifies the switch.
A hands-on review of Gemini CLI, Google's open-source AI agent for the terminal - featuring Gemini 3.1 Pro, 1M context, built-in Google Search, MCP support, and the most generous free tier in the category.
Claude Opus 4.7 leads SWE-bench and agent benchmarks but regresses on web research, inflates token costs by up to 35%, and trades prose quality for literal instruction-following.
