ChatGPT as a dynamic, generative UI

The conversation centered on Google’s surprise rollout of Gemini 3 Flash, its implications for model economics, and what it signals about the next phase of AI competition. From there, the discussion expanded into AI literacy and public readiness, deepfakes and misinformation, OpenAI’s emerging app marketplace vision, Fiji Simo’s push toward dynamic AI interfaces, rising valuations and compute partnerships, DeepMind’s new Mixture of Recursions research, and a long, candid debate about China’s momentum in AI versus Western resistance, regulation, and public sentiment.
