Hand-picked News

What if your AI tutor stopped giving answers—and started asking you questions?

  • A new ā€œStudy Togetherā€ feature is quietly showing up in ChatGPT’s tools menu for select users.

  • Instead of spoon-feeding info, it uses a Socratic-style approach to guide learning through questions.

  • Rumors swirl about a possible group study mode, turning ChatGPT into a shared learning space.

OpenAI hasn’t officially announced the feature, but early testers say it feels like a response to Google’s LearnLM—and a way to make AI more ethical in education.

āœ… If ChatGPT can teach without enabling cheating, it could become a game-changing classroom companion.

Quick tip: Try prompting ChatGPT to ā€œteach me using questionsā€ to simulate the experience—even if you don’t have the feature yet.

Apple’s AI chief just jumped ship to Meta, and it might signal deeper cracks in Cupertino’s AI game.

  • Ruoming Pang, who led Apple’s on-device AI model team, is now part of Meta’s Superintelligence Lab.

  • Apple reportedly considered outsourcing AI for Siri—while Meta builds its own dream team.

  • Pang joins a wave of elite hires from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic, all heading to Meta.

Apple’s AI models have lagged behind competitors, and Pang’s exit could be the first of many. Meta, meanwhile, is stacking talent like it’s building the Avengers of AGI.

āš ļø The talent war isn’t just about prestige—it’s about who controls the future of superintelligent AI.

Quick insight: If you’re building AI tools, watch where the top minds go. It’s often a preview of what’s coming next.

Inbox chaos is real—and Google just dropped a tool that could finally tame it.

  • Gmail’s new ā€œManage subscriptionsā€ view shows all your active email lists, sorted by sender frequency.

  • You can now unsubscribe directly from Gmail, no more hunting for tiny links at the bottom of emails.

  • Rolling out across web, Android, and iOS—so expect it to hit your inbox soon.

This feature is a quiet game-changer for anyone drowning in promo emails, newsletters, and forgotten signups. Gmail’s giving users real control over inbox clutter, and it’s about time.
