They Launched GPT 5.6...(Kinda)
A new "government-approved rollout" for GPT-5.6 is coming, and it's got us wondering: are we entering the next dark age of AI model access? Additionally, we break down the launch of T3 Code x Grok CLI, Apple's price hikes, the memory supply crunch driving RAM and SSD costs up, a repo-poisoning and AI PR spam wave hitting open source, the GPT-5.6 non-launch, and what frontier model access looks like in a Fable/Mythos-tier world.
