Deep Sea 3.2 Launch and Reasoning-First Models

Brian hosted this first show of December with Beth and Andy chiming in early. They opened with ChatGPT’s third birthday and reflected on how quickly each December has delivered major AI releases. The group joked about the technical issues they have been facing with streaming platforms, announced they are switching back to their original setup, and then moved into a dense news cycle. The episode covered China’s Deep Sea model releases, open weights strategy, memory systems in Perplexity and ChatGPT, AI music licensing, and a long discussion on orchestration research, multi model councils, and new video model announcements.

Key Points Discussed
