Three years of revolution —plus your roadmap forward.

ChatGPT launched in November 2022 with an 8,000-token context window (you can think of a token as a short word). Today's models handle millions of tokens—the equivalent of reading the entire Bible, Atlas Shrugged, and all of Tolkien in a single conversation. And context windows are just one dimension of the transformation.

If you blinked, you missed something important. Multimodal models. Reasoning capabilities. Computer use. Agentic browsers. Code execution. Deep research. The pace of change has been relentless, and each new capability opens possibilities that weren't imaginable months earlier.
