Why Google Shouldn’t Worry About OpenAI’s Atlas Browser—Yet

OpenAI fired a shot across Google’s bow on Tuesday with the launch of ChatGPT Atlas, its first native AI browser that combines the familiar web-surfing experience with built-in AI assistance. Atlas, which combines chat, browsing, and AI-driven automation, is OpenAI's most aggressive move yet to control the user's entire online experience. “At OpenAI, we’re not just trying to create the world’s most intelligent models,” an OpenAI spokesperson told Decrypt. “We want this intelligence to actually b...

She Asked ChatGPT for Powerball Numbers—Then Won $100K

Tammy Carvey’s $100,000 Powerball win is turning heads—not for its size, but for the method that led to it. Carvey, a 45-year-old resident of Wyandotte, Michigan, claimed to have used ChatGPT to generate her numbers for the September 6 Powerball drawing. Carvey’s ticket matched four white balls and the Powerball, earning her a $50,000 prize that doubled to $100,000 through the game’s Power Play feature, according to the Michigan Lottery. "I asked ChatGPT for a set of Powerball numbers and those...

Wikipedia Traffic Drops as AI Answers Eat the Free Encyclopedia

The Wikimedia Foundation announced this week that human traffic to Wikipedia fell roughly 8% between May and August compared to the same period last year. The decline came into focus after the foundation discovered that sophisticated bots, primarily from Brazil, had been disguising themselves as human visitors. After updating its detection systems in May, the foundation reclassified traffic data and found much of the unusually high traffic in May and June came from bots built to evade detection....

Naughty or Nice? ChatGPT to Allow Erotica in December, Says Sam Altman

Gooners of the world, rejoice! OpenAI will allow ChatGPT to generate erotic content for verified adults starting in December, marking a dramatic shift from the company's historically restrictive approach to sexual content. CEO Sam Altman announced the change Tuesday, saying the company would follow a "treat adult users like adults" principle once comprehensive age verification rolls out. “In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our 'treat adult users like adults' princip...

Researchers Show That Hundreds of Bad Samples Can Corrupt Any AI Model

It turns out poisoning an AI doesn’t take an army of hackers—just a few hundred well-placed documents. A new study found that poisoning an AI model’s training data is far easier than expected—just 250 malicious documents can backdoor models of any size. The researchers showed that these small-scale attacks worked on systems ranging from 600 million to 13 billion parameters, even when the models were trained on vastly more clean data. The report, conducted by a consortium of researchers from Anth...

When You Tell AI Models to Act Like Women, Most Become More Risk-Averse: Study

Ask an AI to make decisions as a woman, and it suddenly gets more cautious about risk. Tell the same AI to think like a man, and watch it roll the dice with greater confidence. A new research paper from Allameh Tabataba'i University in Tehran, Iran revealed that large language models systematically change their fundamental approach to financial risk-taking behavior based on the gender identity they're asked to assume. The study, which tested AI systems from companies including OpenAI, Google, Me...

Bernie Sanders Warns AI Could Erase 100 Million Jobs

In a YouTube video released Wednesday, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) warned that artificial intelligence could erase nearly 100 million American jobs within the next decade, calling it an “issue of enormous consequence” that would deepen inequality unless lawmakers acted. His critique was based on a Senate report released on Monday by the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee’s minority staff, led by Sanders, outlining how robotics and AI could accelerate profits while undermining j...

Most US Growth Now Rides on AI—And Economists Suspect a Bubble

What happens when artificial intelligence becomes both the economy's primary engine and its potential Achilles' heel? We may be about to find out. Harvard economist Jason Furman recently said that AI investments accounted for nearly 92% of U.S. GDP growth in the first half of 2025. Basically, the entire American economy put its eggs in one algorithmic basket. Investment in information processing equipment & software is 4% of GDP. But it was responsible for 92% of GDP growth in the first half of...

HumanoidExo Turns Human Motion Into Data That Teaches Robots to Walk

A research team from China’s National University of Defense Technology and appliance maker Midea Group aims to solve one of robotics' most challenging problems—teaching humanoid robots to move like humans without relying on thousands of costly demonstrations. To address these issues, the team introduced HumanoidExo in a research paper published last week. The lightweight wearable suit records a person’s full-body motion (arms, torso, and legs) and converts it into structured data for robot learn...

At its developer conference today, the company unveiled two marquee upgrades designed to make ChatGPT the hub for both work and code. A new App SDK lets third parties build fully interactive apps that live inside chats—so users can book flights through Expedia, design graphics in Canva, or pull listings from Zillow without ever leaving the window...

AMD struck its biggest AI deal yet Monday morning, securing a 6 gigawatt GPU contract with OpenAI. The partnership gives OpenAI the option to acquire up to 160 million AMD shares—roughly 10% of the company—while AMD commits to delivering its next-generation Instinct MI450 chips starting in late 2026. The deal comes just two weeks after Nvidia announced its own $100 billion partnership with OpenAI for 10 gigawatts of compute capacity. OpenAI's dual-supplier strategy reflects a calculated hedge: T...

We Tested the Best Free AI Image Editors—Here's What You'll Love and Hate

The era of mastering controlnets, wrestling with inpainting masks, and memorizing arcane prompt engineering formulas has officially ended. Those convoluted workflows that required understanding style references, LORAs, and image-to-image pipelines have been replaced by something remarkably simple: typing what you want in plain English. Understanding the fundamental distinction between image generators and image editors is important as these tools converge. Traditional generators like FLUX 1 Dev...

AI Hasn't Taken a Lot of Jobs Yet, Despite Apocalyptic Predictions: Yale Study

Three years after ChatGPT burst onto the scene, American workers are still showing up to their jobs. A new study from Yale University's Budget Lab and the Brookings Institution examined federal employment data through July, and found that AI has yet to trigger the mass unemployment that technology executives have been predicting. The researchers tracked how quickly the mix of occupations has changed since November 2022, when OpenAI released ChatGPT to the public. While jobs are shifting slightly...

OpenAI’s New Sora App Makes Account Deletion Permanent, Including for ChatGPT

Deleting an account on OpenAI’s new Sora 2 app isn’t just a button tap—it’s a point of no return. OpenAI warns in its terms of service that once a user deletes their Sora profile, all linked data, including conversation history and API usage across ChatGPT and Sora, is permanently erased. That level of finality matters as Sora 2 has mushroomed online alongside OpenAI’s push into new products like an AI agent shopping feature with Shopify. According to the TOS, once a user’s email or phone number...

OpenAI's Sora 2 Unleashed Internet Chaos in 24 Hours—From Dildo Ads to Furry CEOs

OpenAI's Sora 2 launched Tuesday with audio and social “cameos”—and within hours, the internet turned it into a meme factory testing the limits of moderation, likeness, and copyright. The new version introduced audio generation and a “cameo” feature, allowing users to insert real people—celebrities, influencers, or even OpenAI CEO Sam Altman himself—directly into AI-generated clips. Combined with Sora’s existing cinematic quality, the tools instantly collided with questions of consent, identity,...

Self-Evolving AI Agents Can 'Unlearn' Safety, Study Warns

An autonomous AI agent that learns on the job can also unlearn how to behave safely, according to a new study that warns of a previously undocumented failure mode in self-evolving systems. The research identifies a phenomenon called “misevolution”—a measurable decay in safety alignment that arises inside an AI agent’s own improvement loop. Unlike one-off jailbreaks or external attacks, misevolution occurs spontaneously as the agent retrains, rewrites, and reorganizes itself to pursue goals more...
