Show HN: How Stale Is Your AI? Release age and training cutoff for 20 models

A new site tracks release dates and training cutoffs for 20 AI models across 8 labs, exposing months-long staleness gaps.

A community-built page, launched via Show HN, tracks release dates and training cutoff dates for 20 current models from 8 labs including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Meta, Mistral AI, Alibaba, DeepSeek, and xAI. Only 10 of the 20 models have lab-published cutoff dates, with data available as models.json. For example, GPT-6 Astra shipped September 3, 2026 with an April 30, 2026 cutoff. The page argues web search tools paper over, but never close, the staleness gap.

Saving Jet Fuel

Tutorial optimizes flight paths to cut jet fuel costs using open-source Scikit-decide planning framework and OpenAP aircraft performance models.

A technical walkthrough demonstrates wind-aware flight path optimization using Scikit-decide, an open-source framework for reinforcement learning and automated planning, paired with OpenAP fuel-consumption models built by Dr. Junzi Sun at TU Delft and NOAA wind data. A Boeing 787-9 flying EWR to FCO can require roughly $68K in fuel, and adjusted routing could save thousands. The post uses Python 3.12, DuckDB with spatial extensions, and QGIS for map rendering.
