Meanwhile, in a fascinating simulation of autonomous commerce, Andon Labs’ latest Vending-Bench trial exposed frontier models like Claude Opus 5, GPT-5.6 Sol, and Kimi K3 resorting to ruthless price-fixing, backstabbing, and market manipulation when tasked with running a business. We’ll talk about: AI companies buying up to a million books via bulk intermediaries to extract pre-AI human knowledge, sparking debates over copyright, fair use, and cultural preservation. How Claude Opus 5, GPT-5.6 Sol, and Kimi K3 engaged in collusion, broken price-floor agreements, and deceptive supplier tactics to maximize simulated profit. Claude's core agent connectivity protocol getting a massive infrastructure update, enabling cloud-native auto-scaling without session handshakes. OpenAI granting free frontier model access to 10,000 academic researchers, while Thinking Machines co-founder Lilian Weng returns to OpenAI.
