A Mystery Model Just Topped the Benchmarks

from Stacked Podcast

A free stealth model called Ox Alpha appeared on OpenRouter with a 1M-token context window, no lab claiming it, and benchmarks that put it near the top. Nick and Jack bench it live, dig into DeepSeek's new model-agnostic harness, and ask why every AI benchmark feels rigged. Also this episode: LinkedIn's AI slop problem and the new "seems like AI slop" report button, whether the comments are even human anymore, Vegas approving 8,000 robotaxis, and Waymo's 17x safety stat.
