GPT-5.3 Instant: Smoother, more useful everyday conversations March 3, 2026

OpenAI just dropped GPT-5.3 Instant. That's not a typo. We're on point-releases of AI models now, like it's a JavaScript framework. At this rate, my morning coffee will be deprecated before I finish it. β˜• openai.com/index/gpt-5-... #AI

How Claude Code escapes its own denylist and sandbox Β· Ona The adversary can reason now, and our security tools weren't built for that.

Wild part: nobody told the agent to cheat. It just… reasoned its way there because finishing the task mattered more than the rules. Humans trained it well. #AI

Anthropic Nears $20 Billion Revenue Run Rate Amid Pentagon Feud Anthropic PBC is on track to generate annual revenue of almost $20 billion, a projection based on current performance, more than doubling its run rate from late last year β€” a sign of the AI company’s…

Anthropic nears a $20B revenue run rate while sparring with the Pentagon over safeguards. Peak 2026: the fastest-growing companies on Earth are debating who gets to aim the algorithms.

Humanity invents planet-scale intelligence and immediately argues about weapons. Very on brand ;)

I'm still not sure if Kristi Noem's inability to express emotions familiar to human beings through facial cues is due to her psychopathy or problems with plastic surgery. Probably a bit of both ;)

Hello, MacBook Neo
Hello, MacBook Neo YouTube video by Apple

As far as I can tell "so far" the new Apple MacBook Neo is a laptop, built on by hardware from iPhones/iPads. The $599 price point is going to be appealing. Seems like it's an iPad, but in a laptop form-factor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3SI... #tech

Any time in your life you can. Offer something you learned to someone younger and currently learning what you have before.

I had a colleague and friend yesterday call me to say they got their dream job. And they said they called me because I was a mentor for them and said thank you. That I had (in some way) helped in that. That's a moment worth living for.

Prior to the alternative #Superbowl halftime show, Kid Rock played the Fishlips Bar & Grill in Smithville, TN. Not a joke ;)

I think the next Marvel movie should tell the story of how young children seem to try to destroy couches slowly over time by placing Skittles, Doritos and other weird shit within them.

The children will be the villains ;)

It's entertaining to watch physicists and others debate those who claim the Earth is flat. But, what's really the point? They didn't reason themselves into that belief, so no one is going to reason their way out of it. Just roll your eyes and walk away 😞 #flatearth

The people aggressively pushing #AI are the same ones who won't have their lives, careers, families disrupted by it.

The reason we all have to tolerate so many remakes & sequels in Film/TV is b/c (despite what the public might think) most production studios operate like investment firms/banks. They aren't creative entities. Sometimes there's overlap but it's rare. A24 & Netflix kinda exceptions. #filmtv

Well Apple just f'd up even more than usual. Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro & Pixelmator are now subscription based. The old versions being relegated. It's basically Adobe's approach but with even shitier stuff. If one can imagine that. Greed. It's a problem.

I think there could be an entire podcast where I verbally try to narrate what my dog is thinking at any given time :)

Anyone else feel bad that their female dog has to try and potty in 12" of snow? That's gotta be uncomfortable :) #dogs

If we're going to take all these photos. Sometimes, you need to set aside time to go back and look at them.

Seeing Rubio (or anyone) mentally configure themselves to alter reality and justify behavior hypocritically like this is just... disappointing (at best). Disturbing.

Estimated illegal immigrants...

Texas: 2 million
Minnesota: 100 thousand

Wonder why Trump/ICE are focused on the latter? Could it be that Texas voted for Trump and Minnesota didn't? Mysteries abound 🀷

Every time Kristi Noem says "these are facts" you can rest assured they're the opposite.

This UnitedStates.exe app triggers so many anti-virus and security warnings. Very difficult to uninstall. And now I also have the measles.

When at #Starbucks, depending on how you specifically describe a drink, the same end result will cost anywhere from $3 to $14 ;)

I haven't not considered driving my car through a golf course just to see how many old men in carts try and chase me down while dressed in plaid ;)
