🤖 OpenAI’s GPT-5 is here
LINK
|
- OpenAI released GPT-5 for everyone, giving free users a capped version plus GPT-5-mini, while Pro subscribers get unlimited access and a more powerful GPT-5 Pro model.
- The new model can quickly write code to create custom web applications from a simple prompt, letting people build and adjust tools without needing any programming knowledge.
- Instead of refusing potentially harmful questions, the system now tries to provide the best safe answer, which helps address innocent queries that might sound more sinister to the AI.

👀 Meta shows off new VR headset prototypes
LINK
|
- The Tiramisu prototype focuses on high image quality with 1,400 nits of brightness and 90 pixels per degree angular resolution, but has a very narrow 33-degree field of view.
- Another prototype codenamed Boba 3 leans into an ultrawide 180-degree field of view that approaches human vision, while keeping roughly the same size as current headsets on the market.
- Meta's stated research goal is to pass a "visual Turing test" by creating VR experiences that are designed to be indistinguishable from the physical world you see every day.

📱 Apple Intelligence will integrate GPT-5 with iOS 26
LINK
|
- Apple has confirmed that its Apple Intelligence platform will integrate OpenAI's new ChatGPT-5 model with the release of iOS 26, which is expected to arrive alongside the iPhone 17.
- Siri will access ChatGPT-5 when Apple's own systems cannot handle a request, using its enhanced reasoning, coding tools, voice interaction, and video perception compared to the current GPT-4o model.
- To maintain user privacy, Apple will obscure IP addresses and prevent OpenAI from storing requests sent to the new model, continuing the same protection technique currently used in iOS 18.

🗣️ Intel CEO responds to Trump resignation call
LINK
|
- Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan told employees that the accusations stem from "misinformation," asserting his career is built on strict legal principles while the company engages with the U.S. government.
- The firm defended its chief executive by highlighting its half-century of domestic manufacturing and investment in its leading-edge fabs, including the advanced Intel 18A process technology in Arizona.
- Trump's call for resignation cites conflicts of interest from Tan's investment firms, which hold stakes in numerous Chinese companies, some of which supply the People’s Liberation Army.
