Samuel hosts on his own this week while Kabarza is away. He starts with OpenAI putting Codex in the ChatGPT app and why he keeps his phone out of his working day. Then he tries Osaurus, a privacy-first Mac app for local and cloud models, and explains why MLX beats GGUF on Apple silicon. He also covers Notion's new agent platform, which he thinks may have arrived too late, and Cursor's Composer 2.5, which is still built on Kimi K2.5 but comes close to Opus at a fraction of the cost.

The second half opens with Andrej Karpathy joining Anthropic's pre-training team and what that says about the company. Then comes a long run through Google's announcements: the Neural Expressive redesign, a Gemini Omni video test that doesn't go to plan, Daily Brief, the Gemini Spark agent, Antigravity 2.0 and Gemini 3.5 Flash. The episode finishes with Grok support in OpenClaw, Perplexity's query-aware context compression, and Figma's new design agent, which Samuel sees as the right way to bring designers round to AI.

Samuel is back from Madeira, and he and Kabarza catch up on the news they missed. They start with OpenAI's GPT-5.5 Cyber, held back for trusted defenders only, and how attackers get round the safeguards by splitting jobs into small steps and handing them to open models. Then it's Apple's $250 million settlement over the Apple Intelligence features it advertised but never shipped. Most of the episode is about Anthropic: its deal for the whole of SpaceX's Colossus supercomputer, the higher usage limits that followed, and the new charge on programmatic use of Claude subscriptions, plus a look at Claude's agent view.

In the second half, Samuel isn't impressed by Perplexity Computer on the Mac, and they're doubtful about Subquadratic's claim of a 12 million token context window. Kabarza explains Webflow's new pricing and who will pay more. They talk about why asking agents for HTML instead of Markdown makes documents easier to read and share, and end on whether Lovable's new one-prompt designs are good design or just the new template.

Kabarza and Samuel open with a long pre-show chat: why Samuel wants a Vision Pro, what John Ternus as Apple's next CEO might mean, Meta recording every click its staff make to train its models, and why AI is turning into ordinary technology. Kabarza shows off an app he built so his dad can practise German, and Samuel explains the paper-trading crypto bot that Claude reviews and rewrites every day.

In the news, they try Clicky, an on-screen assistant that can talk you through apps and spawn agents. They also use the Figma MCP to plan a site map in FigJam and test Webflow's new AI code components, which Kabarza finds rough and cut off from the rest of the site. Then they talk about what Warp going open source means and whether Stripe Treasury is really a bank. They finish with GPT Realtime and how voice could drive the controls in web apps. They also ask listeners what they would want from an Insiders community.

Kabarza and Samuel open with Samuel's new MacBook Neo, running agents from a phone with Dispatch and T3 Code, and the AI food-photography and menu app Kabarza has been building for restaurants. They then cover the Vercel breach that exposed environment variables and why it is worth checking clients' keys, before giving ChatGPT Images 2.0 a thorough test: UI ideation, recipe cards, brand merch and a head-to-head with Nano Banana 2 and Pro, including the telltale clone-stamp texture in its output.

In the second half they ask what SpaceX gains from its option to buy Cursor for $60bn, discuss agent managers taking over from the IDE, and read through OpenAI's GPT-5.5 launch, its higher prices and its emphasis on following instructions precisely. They finish with the cheap open models released this week (Kimi K2.6, DeepSeek V4 and GLM 5.1), Anthropic briefly removing Claude Code from the Pro plan, and Flipbook, a prototype that streams every pixel of a website from a model.

Kabarza and Samuel open with a week of tool audits: Samuel explains how he has replaced Granola with his own meeting transcriber and what a week of running local models on a base M5 MacBook Pro has taught him, before Kabarza asks whether you can become a good engineer by learning concepts rather than syntax. The news covers the attack on Sam Altman's home, Google penalising back-button hijacking, the redesigned Claude desktop app with routines, enterprise customers losing access to Claude Max plans, Opus 4.7's literal instruction following and heavier token use, and Perplexity's Personal Computer.

Claude Design launched during the stream, so the pair work out what it is for, upload their own design system from Figma and ask it for a website and a set of LinkedIn slides, concluding that it is a prototyping tool for non-designers rather than a replacement for Figma or Lovable. They also look at HeyGen's HyperFrames, which turns HTML into video, and why HTML is becoming a practical format for slides and motion.

Kabarza and Samuel start with Anthropic's Claude Mythos. Anthropic is not releasing the model to the public. Through Project Glasswing it goes only to select security partners, after it found decades-old bugs in OpenBSD, FFmpeg and the Linux kernel. They also cover Anthropic's move to bill third-party harnesses like OpenClaw as extra usage, and how spend limits work. Then they ask whether Claude Managed Agents are worth paying for when n8n can do much the same.

Netflix's open-source VOID model removes objects from video along with the physical effects they cause. A New Yorker investigation into Sam Altman leads into OpenAI's new $100 plan and the startup habit of giving things away cheaply before raising prices. Kabarza finishes with the experimental HTML-in-canvas API and what it could mean for accessible, SEO-friendly 3D websites.

Kabarza and Samuel start with a Shopify site that turns its own page into an x-ray, 3D view, which leads into why video is still harder to get right on the web than WebGL. Samuel then covers Google's open-weight Gemma 4 family. A tweet calls local frontier AI "effectively free", and he argues that it isn't: most people's laptops still can't run these models usefully. They also look at Pika's video chat agents, and at Cursor 3's agent-first redesign compared with Codex, T3 Code and Claude Code.

After that come the accidental Claude Code source leak (swear-word sentiment checks, the buddy pet, Kairos, ultra plan and the 187 spinner verbs) and Pretext, Cheng Lou's library for measuring text without the DOM, which Kabarza tests against his own canvas project. The episode ends on a band called Angine de Poitrine and what photography did to painting, then moves on to short-form attention spans, Montessori schooling and the thinking machines of Dune.

Kabarza and Samuel open with the discontinued Mac Pro, Samuel's plan to replace Frame.io with his own tool, and the YouTube analytics MCP he built in a morning. Kabarza talks through his node-based YouTube helper app and an interactive presentation tool, and what he wants from Claude Dispatch. They then turn to Elon Musk's Terafab chip project and why data centres in space are harder than they sound, before comparing Framer's new shaders with Unicorn Studio and testing Spline's new AI builder, Omma.

The second half is about Anthropic. Samuel explains Claude Code's new auto mode and his trouble with permissions, then runs a live computer use task sent from his phone through Dispatch. They discuss the duplicate iMessage problem, replacing OpenClaw with Claude Code, the scheduled tasks still missing, the financial guardrails on computer use, and why Anthropic's steady product stacking leaves OpenAI looking scattered.

Kabarza and Samuel admit up front that this one is winged, then work through the week's news: Cursor's Composer 2 and its Codex-style agent view, and a long look at Google Stitch's update. Kabarza argues Stitch has reached good-template territory, which is enough for many people who make a living from design, while Samuel uses a ping-pong bat analogy to explain why Figma's shares fell. They also cover Claude's 1M-token context at standard pricing, the 2x off-peak usage promotion, Google AI Studio's vibe-coding upgrade and NVIDIA's NemoClaw and DLSS 5.

After Kabarza leaves, Samuel carries on alone with Alexa's new personalities, Meta delaying its Avocado model, and Amazon adding guardrails to AI-assisted coding after a run of outages. He then covers Moltbook's new terms under Meta, sets up a nightly journal for his own OpenClaw, and finishes with Mistral's Leanstral, OpenAI cutting back on side projects, MiniMax M2.7 and a couple of listener comments.

Kabarza and Samuel open with a Twitter spat, the new MacBook Neo and a stop-motion Apple advert, which leads into a longer talk about why struggle and failure matter for learning. They then move quickly through the week's news: Webflow buying Vidoso for on-brand AI marketing assets, Anthropic's Claude marketplace for enterprise customers, Meta picking up the people behind Moltbook, Claude Code Review and what it costs, Andrej Karpathy's autoresearch, Gemini in Chrome, Cloudflare's new crawl endpoint and the irony of an anti-bot company selling scraping, interactive visual explanations in ChatGPT and Claude, and Canva's Magic Layers.

The second half is about building. Kabarza walks through the AI thumbnail and YouTube helper he is making and his UI tweaking tool, Samuel talks about pricing client work done with AI and his recipe app, and they discuss when a Notion and Claude setup is enough. They finish on where newcomers should start, how Codex, Claude Code, Lovable and Webflow compare, and how they use Claude Cowork and Notion day to day.
