AI cheat sheets

This is the section of the collection I use most at work. The frontier lab comparison, the model picker and the API pricing table are the pages I keep open while building agentic systems, and they get re-verified as the labs ship new models.

The second half is the safety side: a field guide to existential risk, a timeline of the alignment problem, a directory of the safety ecosystem, and an interactive p(doom) calculator that shows which assumptions actually move the estimate. The two halves belong together. You cannot reason about the risk without knowing what the labs are shipping, and you cannot pick a model responsibly without knowing its failure modes.

Start with the frontier labs page if you want the landscape, the model picker if you have a task in hand, and the agentic AI cheat sheet if you are building.
