Summary: GPT 5.2 is dropping today, apparently. OpenAI's been doing their usual Thursday release schedule, and Sam Altman's been cryptically tweeting about garlic - which is the code name for whatever they're launching. This is their response to Gemini 3, and there's been some internal drama with people saying the model should be delayed, but executives pushed it through anyway. Classic OpenAI move. The pressure's on because they wouldn't release it unless it beats Gemini 3 in the benchmarks, so we'll see if they've actually pulled it off or if this is just another rushed launch to save face.

Meanwhile, I spent most of the show talking about something I've been noticing more and more - the growing dread in the scientific community about AI coming for their jobs. You've got researchers making posts about how AI can never create novel knowledge or assist in real science, which is just bonkers when you look at what's actually happening with tools like AlphaFold. There's also a Pentagon committee forming to discuss AGI implications for national security, which suggests the government's finally taking this seriously. Not sure if that's reassuring or worrying that they're only just getting around to it now, but here we are.
