This would have been a multi-million dollar startup not too long ago. People would have paid $20/month for the subscription. Now you can generate this in a few prompts on GPT-5.6. The best part about 5.6? The image and voice models. It's really this simple: -> You feed it an entire catalog of pictures of you. -> 5.6 extracts it and assumes what the rest of the clothing article will look like. -> It will place it in a digital closet where you can kind of customize and mix and match your clothes. GPT-5.6 crushes this.
this would have been a whole startup not too long ago

Did OpenAI just get caught for stealing Apple’s secret AI hardware device? the (alleged) evidence is pretty damning: -> 24 year Apple veteran asked Apple employees to bring in proprietary Apple hardware to interviews. -> another ex-Apple employee stole a company laptop that had access to classified information. if true, this is one of the biggest feats of corporate espionage just months before one of the biggest rumored IPOs of the year lock in, we unpacked everything on todays episode 👇

Right now, Samsung is the most profitable company in the world. That's literally $650 million per day. In profit. And with SK Hynix stock up 260% in the last quarter, the Korean memory co's have posted unfathomable numbers in the last few months. But things are changing: -> Both stocks have plummeted over 20% off their peak valuation just a few weeks ago -> SK Hynix will have a US IPO with over 10% of a $28B ADR funded by who? Leopold Aschenbrenner There are countless moving parts here -- so we broke them all down in today's episode 👇

the most asymmetric trend in AI right now is adoption and energy. if you’re betting on continual demand for AI then those are the things to track - are more people using it and is there enough to go around. currently: 99% of companies arent using it.

We gave Fable 5 access to 200 episode transcripts detailing the last 1 year in AI... and asked it to tell us what's next. And it made some pretty convincing bets: -> everyone's underestimating the demand for memory. Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron will become the biggest companies in the world -> AI Datacenters in space will be a resounding success.. and @elon will be the one to win it -> Disease research and financial trading will be the next major wave of advancements in AI models. All this and much more on today's episode 👇

“you’d have to be crazy to work here” The team @Etched might be the most ambitious group of people building an AI chip > flew team to bangalore for 6 months to rebuild a chip from scratch after they made a mistake > convinced everyone to move to a co-op apartment compound in san diego > claims they’ve designed a chip that’s 10X better at inference who are these guys?

the top 2 chinese AI labs just announced they’re building their own chips. OpenAI, Meta, Anthropic and Google are doing the same NVIDIA’s monopoly on GPUs is officially threatened. but WHY is every ai company buildng their own chips? The answer is inference and its the #1 revenue generator in 2026

Two 24 year old harvard drop-outs spent 3 years building an AI chip that beats NVIDIA's. Etched just raised $800M and hired a team stacked with ex-NVIDIA superstars working 24/7 (literally) to build an inference chip 10X(!!!) better than the nearest competitor. The bold bet? theres two: 1. low-voltage inference: their chip uses 75% LESS power to generate the same level of intelligence. 2. cluster scale memory: a shared memory pool across multiple chips together this team is taking on the $5 trillion giant NVIDIA... and they might just win 👇

Last week Chinese AI model GLM 5.2 took the world by storm for 3 reasons: -> 5-7x cheaper than Opus 4.8 and GPT 5.5 -> As good and in some cases better at coding -> Open weight design meaning you can download and run it for free. So the question is... should you switch your $200 per month pro subscription for GLM 5.2 at a fraction of the price? We unpacked it all on today's episode 👇

spaceX just acquired Cursor for free The price-tag was $60 billion but it was an all-stock deal at the inflated IPO price $SPCX Bill Ackman said it best - “SpaceX’s big advantage is its market value” it allows them to acquire the leaders and leap-frog into the frontier

even if spaceX fails tomorrow they STILL win: "their nearest competitor blue origin is 5-10 years behind" the scale of starlink and starship launches is a monopoly on space transport and data connectivity
