Oh boy, you are far from what it requires, we are probably talking 3B+, but note that this is just codex, obviously codex is also doing automatic adversarial with the regular zoo (gemini-3.1-pro-preview, opus-4.6/4.7, gpt-5.3-codex, minimax-2.7, glm-5.1, mimo-2 (now 2.5) and so-on, you get the gist) :)
what is that task doing???

#136Just tried it out for a prod issue was experiencing. Claude never does this sort of thing, I had it write an update statement after doing some troubleshooting, and I said “okay let’s write this in a transaction with a rollback” and GPT-5.5 gave me the old “okay, BEGIN TRAN; -- put the query here commit; I feel like I haven’t had to prod a model to actually do what I told it to in awhile so that was a shock.

Can't tell if above is good or bad.

If so, I’m not sure I’d even consider that a problem. If the goal is for it to give you a query to run, and you ask it “let’s do it in a transaction”, it’s a reasonable thing for it to simply inform you, “yeah you can just type begin first” since it’s assuming you’re going to be pasting the query in anyway. And yeah, it does use fewer tokens, assuming the query was long. Similar to how, if it gave me a command to run, and I say “I’m getting a permission denied”, it would be reasonable for it to say “yeah do it as root, put sudo before the command”, and it’s IMO reasonable if it didn’t repeat the whole thing verbatim just with the word “sudo” first.
But if the context was that you actually expected it to run the query for you, and instead it just said “here, you run it”, then yeah that’s lazy and I’d understand the shock.

Coding (along with docs, tests obviously), rewriting a huge chunk of the KVM hypervisor (in Kernel 7, started in the -rc2) and KSM and other modules, can't say too much about it yet (might do an announcement in coming weeks) . The coding is automated but the plan took days of manual arguing (with all models possible) prior (while doing other things during waiting times as I currently manage 70 repos for an upcoming r…
Please do a post about this (though I realize that takes time). This sounds amazing. I have always dreamed of doing this too but just don't have the budget.

You need to be more specific. OpenAI's commitment to assist the Trump administration with domestic mass surveillance seems to have been largely memory-holed.

Yeah, it's eerie, same with how everyone seems to have forgotten that OpenAI betrayed democracy by committing to work on unsupervised autonomous weapons and domestic mass surveillance.
