EP 108: Why Smart Agents use AI to Get Closer to Clients

AI News You Should Know
While OpenAI was having its code red moment, Google casually dropped Gemini 3 Flash last week like it was no big deal. And before you roll your eyes thinking "another model, who cares," hear me out, this one's different because of WHERE they're putting it. Google's basically shoving this thing into everything. The Gemini app? Gemini 3 Flash. AI Mode in Google Search? Gemini 3 Flash. Your grandmother's smart toaster? Probably Gemini 3 Flash soon.
The numbers are genuinely impressive (and I say this as someone who usually glazes over at benchmark scores): 90.4% on PhD-level reasoning tests, three times faster than their premium model, and way cheaper to run. It's like they built the Toyota Camry of AI models, not the fanciest, but reliable and everywhere.
OpenAI may be still winning the AI war, however, IMO Google has clearly won the AI battle for 2025.
