how can anyone keep up with all these releases... what's next? Sonnet 5?

Well there are rumors sonnet 5 is coming today, so...

Tune it out, come back in 6 months, the world is not going to end. In 6 months, you’re going to change your API endpoint and/or your subscription and then spend a day or two adjusting. Off to the races you go.

>>orlies+(OP)
Relatively, it's not that hard. There's like 4-5 "real" AI labs, who altogether manage to announce maybe 3 products max, per-month.

Compared to RISC core designs or IC optimization, the pace of AI innovation is slow and easy to follow.

>>orlies+(OP)
Pretty much every lab you can think of has something scheduled for february. Gonna be a wild one

>>orlies+(OP)
This is going to be a crazy month because the Chinese labs are all trying to get their releases out prior to their holidays (Lunar New Year / Spring Festival).

So we've seen a series of big ones already -- GLM 4.7 Flash, Kimi 2.5, StepFun 3.5, and now this. Still to come is likely a new DeepSeek model, which could be exciting.

And then I expect the Big3, OpenAI/Google/Anthropic will try to clog the airspace at the same time, to get in front of the potential competition.
