  • OpenAI's GPT 5.5 Instant and an AI Agent Purposely Destroyed Production Data
    May 8 2026
    Most AI models get better by adding more data, but GPT 5.5 Instant proves that less can be more—delivering 53% fewer hallucinations, more concise responses, and sharper accuracy. The big question: are we moving toward smarter, safer AI, or just faster responses that sound right? This week we talk about Anthropic's rate limits, an AI agent that destroyed production data on purpose, and Spotify's plan to support AI generated personal audio podcasts.
