ChatGPT felt smart on April 27, 2026.

I've been playing around with ChatGPT to generate images containing Arabic text, and the results are honestly impressive! The characters look so natural and correctly placed in their positions. It's such a surprising turn of events, especially considering how much it struggled with the English alphabet in the past. Seeing it master such a complex script so gracefully is just mind-blowing.

I've been pushing Codex to its absolute limits, using an ensemble of AIs to process billions of data points and hundreds of millions of images. I managed to build the fastest routing engine in existence and am working on a 'prompt to route' system that's been two years in the making. It's been an absolute grind, but seeing these massive achievements come to life is just incredible!

I was calling about a rental and was honestly caught off guard by how natural the voice sounded—the southern accent was spot on! It felt so human, but the way it jumped in the second I paused felt eerily like an LLM. It was so convincing that I felt awkward even asking if it was a bot, though the repetitive background noise was a dead giveaway that I wasn't talking to a real person.
