Sam Altman says he doesn’t think about Elon Musk that much

Sam Altman has dismissed longtime rival Elon Musk's warnings that OpenAI is set to dominate Microsoft, after the companies announced that OpenAI's latest AI model will be incorporated into Microsoft products. On Thursday, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella announced that OpenAI's GPT-5 service would be launching across platforms including Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot, GitHub Copilot, and Azure AI Foundry — prompting a response from Musk that "OpenAI is going to eat Microsoft alive."

OpenAI priced GPT-5 so low, it may spark a price war

techcrunch.com Julie Bort 2025-12-03 08:10:04

OpenAI astounded the tech industry for the second time this week by launching its newest flagship model, GPT-5, just days after releasing two new freely available models under an open source license. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman went so far as to call GPT-5 “the best model in the world.” That may be pride or hyperbole, as TechCrunch’s Maxwell Zeff reports that GPT-5 only slightly outperforms other leading AI models from Anthropic, Google DeepMind, and xAI on some key benchmarks, and slightly lags on o

The GPT-5 Launch Was Concerning 08 Aug, 2025 Bs in Blueberry There were screenshots of a classic LLM issue floating around Bluesky after the GPT-5 launch yesterday, and I asked GPT-5 myself to confirm. Sam Altman touted GPT-5 as a “PhD level expert in your pocket”, but this PhD doubled down on incorrectly answering the oldest trick for LLMs in the book. When GPT-4 launched, I (and many others) believed that GPT-5's launch would be the “AGI moment”. Cherry picking “bs in blueberry” as a fail

OpenStore’s demise marks endgame for once-booming e-commerce aggregator market

cnbc.com Annie Palmer 2025-12-04 03:40:47

When venture capitalist Keith Rabois got into e-commerce, he couldn't stop buying brands. Now, everything must go. OpenStore, co-founded by Rabois in 2021, is shutting down nearly all of the 40-plus Shopify stores it acquired, and it's in the process of liquidating any remaining inventory by offering steep discounts to move merchandise. Earlier this week, the company announced it plans to focus solely on growing Jack Archer, the menswear brand it bought for $837,000 in 2022. The website addres

What Is Popover=Hint?

What is popover=hint? If you’ve been following along with advancements in HTML, such as the new popover API, you may have noticed that a new popover type ( hint ) recently landed in Chrome 133 (January 2025). But what exactly does it do? The short answer is: popover="hint" allows you to open an unrelated hint popover without closing other popovers in the stack. This means you can have an existing stack of auto popovers remain open while still displaying a hint popover. You often see this sort

In every conversation about AI, you hear the same refrains: “Yeah, but it’s amazing,” quickly followed by, “but it makes stuff up,” and “you can’t really trust it.” Even among the most dedicated AI enthusiasts, these complaints are legion. During my recent trip to Greece, a friend who uses ChatGPT to help her draft public contracts put it perfectly. “I like it, but it never says ‘I don’t know.’ It just makes you think it knows,” she told me.
