App developers looking to launch their programs in ChatGPT can now submit them for review and potential publication, OpenAI said Wednesday. The company also introduced a new app directory within Chat's tools menu that has swiftly been dubbed an "app store."
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is now maybe taking a page out of Elon Musk's and Trump's playbook, and posting a cheeky AI-generated photo of himself as a sexy calendar firefighter to Xitter. In what's apparently intended to show off the capabilities of Images 1.5, the new image-creation module in ChatGPT, OpenAI's Sam Altman posted the example below. The embedded version cuts off his head, but click through and you'll see it's Sam.
The new image generation model allows for more precise image editing and can generate images up to four times faster than OpenAI's previous image creation AI, the company said in a blog post.
One of the twists in the AI wars has been Google sort of bouncing back, this surge by Gemini versus OpenAI's ChatGPT. Sam Altman calling this code red. You've said before that it's hard to know who a winner will be. Interestingly, on Pivot, we thought Google was going to do this because they had all the pieces.

It may sound like a trip through the produce aisle, but leading AI companies have something much more important on their lists. Meta, OpenAI, and Google have all relied on food-related names for their sometimes secretive plans for future AI models. Thinking with your stomach is nothing new for Silicon Valley, just look at the assortment of desserts Android assembled over the years before Google had its fill.
An anti-AI activist in California has been missing for about two weeks, according to The Atlantic, and now his friends are scared for his safety while San Francisco police fear he could target OpenAI employees. The activist in question, a 27 year old named Sam Kirchner, helped start the Stop AI group last year with a commitment to non-violent protest, but became frustrated and angry that the group's efforts didn't go quickly or far enough as he increasingly saw AI as a
