Hand-picked News

OpenAI’s newest model doesn’t just answer questions—it completes tasks, adapts to your vibe, and might be the closest thing yet to a digital teammate.

  • GPT-5 blends speed with deep reasoning, thanks to a real-time router that picks the best response method

  • It can now build apps, manage calendars, and write research briefs—no prompt engineering required

  • Free users get access to GPT-5 by default, breaking OpenAI’s paywall for advanced AI

This is OpenAI’s first “unified” model, combining the best of its fast GPT-series and thoughtful o-series. It’s designed to act more like an agent than a chatbot.

✅ GPT-5 sets a new bar for usability, safety, and performance—especially in coding, health advice, and creative tasks. It’s not just smarter—it’s more honest, less prone to hallucinations, and easier to trust.

Quick tip: Try the new personalities in ChatGPT—Cynic, Robot, Listener, Nerd—to see how GPT-5 adapts to your tone.

A fiery post, a political storm, and a chip giant caught in the crossfire—Intel’s leadership is under siege.

  • Trump demands Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan resign “immediately”, citing vague “conflicts of interest” tied to China

  • Senator Tom Cotton adds fuel, questioning Tan’s past ties to a Chinese military university and investments abroad

  • Tan’s aggressive turnaround strategy—layoffs, plant cancellations, and asset sales—already had Intel in the spotlight

Tan took over in March to revive Intel’s edge in the AI chip race, especially as rivals like Nvidia and AMD surge ahead.

⚠ Why it matters: Intel is a cornerstone of the $8B CHIPS Act. If Tan’s ouster gains traction, it could derail U.S. chip ambitions and rattle investor confidence in AI hardware leadership.

👀 Tip for founders: Watch how political pressure reshapes leadership in AI-critical sectors—your next partner or supplier might be next.

You won’t need to choose between speed and smarts anymore.

  • Copilot’s new smart mode automatically selects when to respond quickly or think deeply—no manual model hunting.

  • Microsoft 365 Copilot just got way sharper at handling complex tasks and staying on-topic, thanks to GPT‑5.

  • Developers now get GPT‑5 power in GitHub Copilot, Azure AI Foundry, and Copilot Studio—with better logic, context-awareness, and reasoning across the board.

For context: Microsoft rolled out GPT‑5 today across everything from Windows Copilot to enterprise tools—this is a full-stack upgrade, not just a whisper under the hood.

✅ Why it matters: This isn't just AI leveling up—it’s AI that anticipates your needs. Whether you're scheduling, coding, or crafting, the right intelligence is picked for you. That means smoother workflows and fewer friction points.

👀 Quick tip: Dive into Copilot Studio and explore the new “GPT‑5 Auto” model router. Let your agents self‑select between speed or depth—your prompts stay simple, the AI handles complexity.
