Thinking Machines Lab unveiled Inkling, an open-weights AI model that could reshape how developers build with artificial intelligence. We also explore OpenAI's newest developments, the continuing competition between Claude, Gemini, Grok, and GPT-5.6, and ask what the next chapter of the AI race really looks like.

Along the way we cover new AI research, emerging technologies, and the bigger questions about where intelligence, creativity, and innovation are heading next.

If you're fascinated by AI breakthroughs, future technology, robotics, and the changing relationship between humans and intelligent machines, this episode is for you.

Want to try one of the most powerful AI assistants I've used?

I've been using Abacus AI ChatLLM, and it's quickly become one of my favorite AI tools. You get access to multiple top AI models in one place, compare responses side by side, generate images, code, research, write, and much more.
