Unmentioned breakthroughs in gpt-4o and Long-running Agent Task Strategy

Hey y’all,

I went to RSA last week, made a TON of crazy connections, and spent like 4 hours hanging out with Daniel Miessler. He challenged me to post even more of my ideas. I’m not sure it’ll last forever, but I’ve definitely been writing more.

The latest two posts are below. In the gpt-4o post, I cover what was insane or completely unmentioned breakthroughs in the new gpt-4o model.

And I break down a cool strategy for a hard problem when it comes to using AI agents for long runnings tasks. Enjoy! 😊

GPT-4o: Actually Good Multimodal AI

OpenAI just made a major move with the release of GPT-4o, a multimodal model that can process text, audio, and images natively.
