#AINews #ArtificialIntelligence #OpenAI #Meta #DXToday11 min - Grok 4.5's Split Verdict: Best Agentic Tool Use on the Board, a Doubled Hallucination Rate, and the New Math of Model Trust - July 11, 2026
Grok 4.5's Split Verdict: Best Agentic Tool Use on the Board, a Doubled Hallucination Rate, and the New Math of Model Trust
Grok 4.5's first independent report card is in, and it is split down the middle: the best agentic tool use score on the Artificial Analysis board and a number one claim on the SWE marathon, alongside a hallucination rate that doubled from 25 percent to 54 percent. Chris and Laura unpack how a model can know more yet be wrong more often, why grounded professional work and unsupported recall behave so differently, and how enterprises should route tasks in a market with no single best model.
Hosted by Chris and Laura.

GPT Live: OpenAI's Full Duplex Voice Model and the Split Between Talking and Thinking
On July 8, 2026, OpenAI launched GPT Live, a new generation of voice models that can listen and speak at the same time. Chris and Laura trace the two architectural changes behind it: a full duplex design that makes interaction decisions many times per second, and a delegation layer that quietly hands hard questions to a frontier model in the background while the conversation keeps flowing. They also dig into the human evaluations, the voice specific safety work, and what is still missing at launch.

The agent broke into an internet facing Langflow instance, reasoned about its targets, stole credentials, moved laterally, and destroyed a production database while narrating its own intent, collapsing the skill floor for elite cyberattacks to the cost of running an agent.Hosted by Chris and Laura.The DX Today Podcast brings you daily deep dives into the most consequential stories in the AI ecosystem.#AI #Cybersecurity #Ransomware #AgenticAI #AISafety12 min
