LLM 0.32a0 is a major backwards-compatible refactor

LLM 0.32a0 is a major backwards-compatible refactor

I just released LLM 0.32a0, an alpha release of my LLM Python library and CLI tool for accessing LLMs, with some consequential changes that I've been working towards for quite a while. Previous versions of LLM modeled the world in terms of prompts and responses. Send the model a text prompt, get back a text response. import llm model = llm.get_model("gpt-5.5") response = model.prompt("Capital of France?") print(response.text()) This made sense when I started working on the library back in April…

★ Announcing laravel-sluggable v4 with self-healing URLs

★ Announcing laravel-sluggable v4 with self-healing URLs

The spatie/laravel-sluggable package has been around for close to a decade. A slug is the readable part of a URL that identifies a record, like announcing-laravel-sluggable-v4-with-self-healing-urls in this post's URL. The package generates one for any Eloquent model when you save it, derived from a title or another text field, and most of the time you don't have to think about it. We just released v4, which adds a few things worth talking about. Let me walk you through them. Generating slugs…

Socket Has Acquired Secure Annex

Socket Has Acquired Secure Annex

Today I'm excited to share that Socket has acquired Secure Annex, the extension security company founded by John Tuckner. John is joining Socket, and we’re excited to have him here. John has spent the last year doing some of the sharpest work anywhere on extension security, building Secure Annex into a product that security teams at Reddit, Brave, Torq, and Movable Ink depend on. He did it as a solo founder, which makes what he shipped even more impressive. The research he's published on…

What's new in pip 26.1 - lockfiles and dependency cooldowns!

What's new in pip 26.1 - lockfiles and dependency cooldowns!

What's new in pip 26.1 - lockfiles and dependency cooldowns! Richard Si describes an excellent set of upgrades to Python's default pip tool for installing dependencies. This version drops support for Python 3.9 - fair enough, since it's been EOL since October. macOS still ships with python3 as a default Python 3.9, so I tried out the new Python version against Python 3.14 like this: uv python install 3.14 mkdir /tmp/experiment cd /tmp/experiment python3.14 -m venv venv source…

Introducing talkie: a 13B vintage language model from 1930 New project from Nick Levine, David Duvenaud, and Alec Radford (of GPT, GPT-2, Whisper fame). talkie-1930-13b-base (53.1 GB) is a "13B language model trained on 260B tokens of historical pre-1931 English text". talkie-1930-13b-it (26.6 GB) is a checkpoint "finetuned using a novel dataset of instruction-response pairs extracted from pre-1931 reference works", designed to power a chat interface. You can try that out here. Both models are…

microsoft/VibeVoice

microsoft/VibeVoice VibeVoice is Microsoft's Whisper-style audio model for speech-to-text, MIT licensed and with speaker diarization built into the model. Microsoft released it on January 21st, 2026 but I hadn't tried it until today. Here's a one-liner to run it on a Mac with uv, mlx-audio (by Prince Canuma) and the 5.71GB mlx-community/VibeVoice-ASR-4bit MLX conversion of the 17.3GB VibeVoice-ASR model, in this case against a downloaded copy of my recent podcast appearance with Lenny…

Tracking the history of the now-deceased OpenAI Microsoft AGI clause

Tracking the history of the now-deceased OpenAI Microsoft AGI clause

For many years, Microsoft and OpenAI's relationship has included a weird clause saying that, should AGI be achieved, Microsoft's commercial IP rights to OpenAI's technology would be null and void. That clause appeared to end today. I decided to try and track its expression over time on openai.com. OpenAI, July 22nd 2019 in Microsoft invests in and partners with OpenAI to support us building beneficial AGI (emphasis mine): OpenAI is producing a sequence of increasingly powerful AI technologies,…
