Ethan Mollick argues that 'eulogies for AI capability growth after GPT-5' were short-sighted, noting that agentic harnesses are leading to capability leaps independent of underlying model improvements

The many eulogies for AI capability growth after the release of GPT-5 seem especially short-sighted right now, and it created voluntary blinders for many people. Models have advanced a lot since summer, but, more importantly, good agentic harnesses seem to lead to capability leaps on their own.

Sam Altman shares vulnerable moment: built an app with Codex, then felt 'a little useless and sad' when AI suggested better feature ideas than he could think of

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Mollick states definitively that 'it doesn't work and is fake' criticism of AI is now simply wrong, while acknowledging valid criticisms about hype, AGI skepticism, and corporate behavior

You can totally point out that some aspects of AI are overhyped, you can believe that AGI is not possible, you can criticize how the companies and governments developing AI are using or being coopted by these tools. There is a lot to criticize. But "it doesn't work and is fake" is just wrong now.

We love working with NVIDIA and they make the best AI chips in the world. We hope to be a gigantic customer for a very long time. I don't get where all this insanity is coming from.
