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.
Meet Redis LangCache: A Managed Semantic Cache That Cuts LLM API Costs by Up to 90% and Returns Cache Hits Up to 15x Faster
Redis launches LangCache, a managed semantic cache matching LLM prompts by meaning, cutting API costs up to 90% and returning hits up to 15x faster.
Redis LangCache is a fully managed semantic caching service in public preview on Redis Cloud, accessed via a REST API with Python and JavaScript SDKs. It embeds incoming prompts, vector-searches stored entries, and returns a cached response when similarity clears a configured threshold, skipping the LLM call entirely. Redis claims up to 90% cost savings and up to 15x faster cache hits; a demo run showed 0.37 seconds versus 2.232 seconds direct inference (about 6x) with zero LLM tokens. Customer Mangoes.ai reports a 70% hit rate, 70% lower LLM spend, and 4x faster responses on a patient-care voice app.
