What did OpenAI Announce at DevDay? Apps SDK, MCP UI & Impact to SaaS - EP99.20-APPS

Join Simtheory: https://simtheory.aiGPT-5.2 is here and... it's not great. In this episode, we put OpenAI's latest model through its paces and discover it can't even identify a convicted serial killer when the text literally says "serial killer." We compare it head-to-head with Claude Opus and Gemini 3 Pro (spoiler: they win). Plus, we reflect on the "Year of Agents" that wasn't, why your barber switched to Grok, Disney's billion-dollar investment to use Mickey Mouse in Sora, and why Mustafa Suleyman should probably be fired. Also featuring: the GPT-5.2 diss track where the model brags about capabilities it doesn't have.CHAPTERS:00:00 Intro - GPT-5.2 Drops + Details01:25 First Impressions: Verbose, Overhyped, Vibe-Tuned02:52 OpenAI's Rushed Response to Gemini 303:24 Tool Calling Problems & Agentic Failures04:14 Why Anthropic's Models Just Work Better06:31 The Barber Test: Real Users Are Switching to Grok10:00 The Ivan Milat Vision Test (Serial Killer Edition)17:04 Year of Agents Retrospective: What Went Wrong25:28 The Path to True Agentic Workflows31:22 GPT-5.2 Diss Track (Yes, Really)43:43 Why We're Still Optimistic About AI50:29 Google Bringing Ads to Gemini in 202654:46 Disney Pays $1B to Use Mickey Mouse in Sora56:57 LOL of the Week: Mustafa Suleyman's Sad Tweets1:00:35 Outro & Full GPT-5.2 Diss TrackThanks for listening.

Join Simtheory: https://simtheory.ai/OpenAI has declared "Code Red" as ChatGPT faces growing competition from Gemini and other rivals. In this episode, we break down OpenAI's 6% market share decline, why their ad strategy is on hold, and what they need to do to reclaim the AI crown. We also explore DeepSeek V3.2's impressive capabilities as a cheap open-source alternative, Meta's new policy grading employees on AI skills, and the crisis facing higher education as AI fluency becomes essential. Plus, Fatal Patricia hits #1 on our Spotify charts, and Tesla's Optimus robot is running like a slightly unfit human.CHAPTERS:00:00 Intro - OpenAI Code Red & Market Share Crisis07:03 ChatGPT's Failure to Go Deeper Into Users' Lives16:33 What OpenAI Needs to Win Back the Crown26:46 Chris's Wishlist for an OpenAI Comeback31:22 DeepSeek V3.2 - The Open Source Threat39:34 Meta Grading Workers on AI Skills46:29 The University & Education AI Crisis56:25 Fatal Patricia Hits #1 & WTF of the WeekThanks for listening.

Like & Sub. xoxoxAnthropic just dropped Claude 4.5 Opus and it might be the best AI model of 2024. In this episode, we compare Claude 4.5 Opus vs Gemini 3 Pro vs GPT-5.1, breaking down the new API features including effort parameters, context management, and computer use updates. We also test Microsoft's new Farah 7B parameter model for computer use - with hilarious refusal results. Plus, we react to McKinsey's controversial report claiming AI agents could automate 57% of US jobs by 2030. We dive deep into Anthropic's pricing (3x cheaper than Opus 4.1), why Claude is now beating Google and OpenAI on agentic coding benchmarks, and whether MCP-UI apps in ChatGPT are a step backwards for AI workflows. Is Claude 4.5 Opus the new king of AI coding assistants? Should enterprises be worried about AI job replacement? And why did Microsoft's Farah model refuse to draw a moose? All this plus an AI-generated diss track roasting Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and Sundar Pichai.
