20 Oct 2026, 11:57 PM	One Useful Thing	7.0	30 Months on the Exponential (in Charts) Ethan Mollick marks the release of Co-Existence, 30 months after Co-Intelligence, and uses the gap to chart AI progress. He says he used Opus 5.5 in Claude Projects, with one orchestrator agent spawning sub-agents, to produce research, graphs, layouts, images, and citations in minutes, and that it caught a math error. The post cites 20 different models having held the top spot across Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI, 180 models now better than GPT-4 at release, and 19 of those able to run on a modern smartphone. Why: For builders choosing models or designing agent workflows, the concrete signal is churn: a GPT-4-era baseline is no longer a useful default when 180 models beat it and 20 different models have led, so keep provider/model abstraction and re-run evals rather than hard-coding a leader. The Claude Projects orchestrator pattern also sets a practical bar for delegating multi-step work, but since the output included citations and math, build verification into any similar pipeline before shipping. ai-models ai-agents model-evaluation claude-projects
