I’m finding that social media is less “social”. Fewer of my friends and family are posting and more and more businesses, ads, and “creators” are filling the gap

All those photos look fake / rendered. And they didn't even bother rendering an inside shot for a car that's all about the inside design choices.
there is an interior rendering in the image slider in the article

Very impressive! But under arguably the most important benchmark -- SWE-bench verified for real-world coding tasks -- Claude 3.7 still remains the champion.[1]
Incredible how resilient Claude models have been for best-in-coding class.
[1] But by only about 1%, and inclusive of Claude's "custom scaffold" augmentation (which in practice I assume almost no one uses?). The new OpenAI models might still be effectively best in class now (or likely beating Claude with similar augmentation?).
I haven't been following them that closely, but are people finding these benchmarks relevant? It seems like these companies could just tune their models to do well on particular benchmarks

Windows has had personalized ads for a long time now, they just mask it as "Recommendations". They're in the start menu, the search bar, the task bar, and even your lock screen! I remember many years ago when dynamic lock screen
for Windows 10 was turned into a giant ad for Disney's Minions. It's everywhere in the OS.
Just a small correction noting that Disney is not involved with the Minion movies
