“Later this year, Americans will be able to complete tasks like passport renewal and Medicare enrollment on America.gov, without being sent back into a maze of websites.”

This chart makes the case better than any of the talk around it. Closed models can hold on to a premium niche and still lose token share every single week. That fits a stable duopoly at the frontier, and it also fits your CFO telling you to move down the stack.
The one sentence this month that didn't need a chart: a 1.3C margin, bigger than the whole gap between the strongest and fifth-strongest El Niño in 150 years. My edit is to “every single model run”.
