DeepSeek V4 ships hours after GPT-5.5, and the technical report tells a more interesting story than the benchmark bars. Susan Zhang reads the paper out loud: anticipatory routing, logit clamps, and a training run that kept catching fire at 33 trillion tokens.

On the OpenAI side, GPT-5.5 lands with a quiet thud on Victor Taelin's LamBench. Codex picks up a proper reviewer agent. A plugin called endless-toil makes your editor groan at bad code. Sapiens2 admits it trained on half of Flickr's humans. And Fireship spends a week automating his mom's IT support with a voice-cloned agent called OpenClaw.
