Episode 126: Is Deep Research Actually Deep?
This week, we dive into OpenAI’s new Deep Research feature—does it truly deliver deep insights, or is it just another overhyped tool? With competition from DeepSeek and Gemini, plus open-source alternatives outpacing big tech, we question if this is a real game-changer or just another consulting firm disruptor. Meanwhile, OpenAI’s GPT-o3 Mini is making waves, but with mixed reviews compared to Claude and DeepSeek. Are benchmark scores even meaningful anymore?
Also, Tool of the Week goes to Meet Icon AI, an AI-powered video editor that automatically creates ads from your clips—plus, it can generate additional footage to match your vision. We also touch on DeepSeek’s growing controversy, including accusations of illegally obtaining Nvidia’s H100 chips despite U.S. sanctions. The AI arms race is getting messier, and we’re here to break it all down.
