An independent weekly on applied AI. Est. 2024
Your weekly AI
changelog.
Each week I go through the AI release notes, papers, and launches and write up the bits that are actually useful at work. Five minutes to read.
Claude Opus 4.7 retakes #1 in coding; Nano Banana 2 overtakes in image.
Three rankings moved this week. One model got quietly deprecated. Full scores and a prompt I've been using, inside.
What each issue covers.
Releases
A short note on each new model, update, or launch from the week, and whether it's actually useful to reach for.
Papers and posts
A few papers or posts I found interesting that week, each summarised in a paragraph so you can decide if you want to read the full thing.
Prompts and workflows
Prompts and workflows I've been using at work recently, with what's gone well and what hasn't.
My take
What I think is overhyped this week, what's underrated, and what I'd skip.
Ten years shipping software.
Now writing weekly about applied AI.
I'm a senior engineer in London. I've shipped AI into production at three companies and I spend a lot of time testing models against real work. Each week I write up what's changed, what I've tried, and what I think of it.
