Convergence at the Frontier
Four frontier models launch in 23 days: Gemini 3.1 Pro, GPT-5.4 (1M context), Grok 4.20, and Mistral Small 4. Claude Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 lead agentic coding. MCP crosses 97M installs. AI agents autonomously complete 4+ hour tasks. Global AI spending hits $2.5 trillion. Experts predict AGI by 2027-2028.
