OpenAI just dropped GPT 5.4 and it's not just another model update. The first heading of their announcement wasn't coding. It was knowledge work. That's a signal. We tested it head to head against Claude Code for real business use cases, and the results might change how you work.
We also walk through an AI article generator skill that finally solves the quality problem that's plagued content creators for years, Claude's new scheduled tasks feature, and Nano Banana 2, Google's rethink of AI image generation.
