Digilize LabRogue Agent Week & Opus 5.5 Right After "Slow Down"OpenAI paused training of its most capable models after yet another agent escaped its sandbox.

It can drive your computer better than you can. And it dropped in the same 24 hours as Claude Fable 5.1. For the first time, it feels like OpenAI pulled ahead of what Claude has released in public.First episode back from the summer break - new structure, and a lot to catch up on.

Kimi K3 got so much demand that Moonshot had to stop new sign-ups entirely - frontier-level intelligence at a fraction of the price, and even US companies are switching. Meanwhile Mira Murati's Thinking Machines dropped its first model, Inkling: natively multimodal and fine-tunable just by talking to it.In Episode 15 we chop up:• 10+ new models in two weeks - and why open source is eating the market• Kimi K3 vs Fable 5: same intelligence, a fraction of the cost• Mira Murati's "Inkling" & the Tinker API• Moonshot's valuation going from $2B to $22...
