AI News for early February 2026 highlights a detailed comparison between GPT-5.3-Codex and Claude Opus 4.6, with users noting Codex's strength in detailed scoped tasks and Opus's ergonomic advantage for exploratory work. Benchmarks on Karpathy's nanochat GPT-2 speedrun show Opus 4.6 achieving better wall-clock performance, while Codex-5.3-xhigh sometimes suffers from context issues. Karpathy cautions that current models are not yet reliable for fully autonomous AI engineering. Discussions on agent swarms reveal emerging parallels to software organizational design, with Anthropic-style agent coordination systems and LangChain/LangSmith emphasizing environment engineering through tracing, sandboxing, and state control. The concept of Recursive Language Models (RLM) is introduced as a future direction for agent systems to reduce context rot and improve structured communication.
