Grok 4.5 is a bigger deal than Fable

Описание

In this episode I bring Nick Vasilescu, co-founder of Orgo, back on the show to unpack the buzz around Grok 4.5. Nick makes the case for treating Grok 4.5 as a genuine AI co-founder inside harnesses like Hermes and OpenClaw, and he proves it live: spinning up cloud computers, wiring in tools, and building a full startup from idea to landing page to outreach. We race Grok 4.5 against GPT 5.6 Sol, tour Nick's agent stack, and talk through the cost paradox of a model this fast and cheap. Listeners walk away with a concrete playbook for standing up their own always-on agent today.

I learn to treat the model as a co-founder by handing it email, a phone number, a debit card, memory, and every connector that matters. Nick runs agents on Orgo cloud computers so they stay online, textable, and ready around the clock. Live, Grok 4.5 builds a landing page in about 40 seconds and wins on design and copy for me over GPT 5.6 Sol. The stack ships from idea to website, offer,
