On episode 125 of Mixture of Experts, host Tim Hwang and co-host David Zax are joined by Mihai Criveti and Abraham Daniels to discuss the back and forth of frontier AI development, IBM’s latest Granite news, and what’s next for personal agents.
We open with the biggest story in tech: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's call to pump the brakes on frontier AI development. In a widely discussed essay, Amodei argued the industry must slow the pace at which it improves AI model capabilities, warning that progress will still feel fast even so. But will independent evaluators and more enforcement really slow down the fastest moving companies?
Then Abraham Daniels discusses the latest changes coming to IBM’s Granite 4.2 and its open enterprise-focused models in 3B, 8B, and 30B sizes built for reasoning, tool use, coding, and agentic workflows.
Finally, we discuss Meta’s push into personal agents with Muse: a personal AI agent that runs on its own secure virtual machine, works across a person's daily apps, can make purchases on your behalf, and learns from conversations to get smarter the more you use it.
Slowdown rhetoric, updates to Granite, and agents that shop for you. All that and more on this week’s Mixture of Experts.
00:00 – Intro
1:13 - Anthropic’s AI development dilemma
15:29 - IBM releases Granite 4.2
25:44 - Meta launches Muse agentic AI assistant
