All eyes on August as rumors suggest OpenAI is preparing to launch GPT-5

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR OpenAI plans to launch its GPT-5 model as early as August. The AI model was initially expected to arrive sometime in the middle of the year. GPT-5 is expected to be a more powerful model that incorporates the company’s o3 model and other technologies. Google has many competitors in the AI space, but none bigger than OpenAI. The company’s Gemini rival, ChatGPT, is one of the most popular chatbots currently available. And ChatGPT could get a big boost

After Years of Promises, Tesla Says Its Cheaper Car Is Actually on the Way

For nearly a decade, it has been the holy grail for Tesla fans and the key to its mainstream future: a truly affordable electric car for the masses. After years of promises, delays, and speculation, the company confirmed on Wednesday that the long-awaited cheaper Tesla is finally moving from myth to reality. In its Q2 2025 earnings release, Tesla stated, “We continue to expand our vehicle offering, including first builds of a more affordable model in June, with volume production planned for the

Samsung backs a video AI startup that can analyze thousands of hours of footage

Many AI tools can look at a video today and summarize what is going on, but things become a bit tricky when you ask models questions about multiple videos and footage spanning many hours. This is a big limitation for security companies that want to use AI to scrub through thousands of hours of footage from different cameras, as well as marketing companies that want to study different video campaigns and product shoots. Memories.ai wants to tackle that problem with its AI platform that can proc

Tesla Turns to a Classic Tactic to Spark a Buying Frenzy

If you’ve been thinking about buying a Tesla, the company has a direct and urgent message for you: the clock is ticking, and time is running out. During a conference call with analysts on Wednesday, Tesla’s Chief Financial Officer, Vaibhav Taneja, issued a stark warning to potential U.S. customers. The popular $7,500 federal tax credit for electric vehicles is set to expire permanently on September 30th, and the company is signaling that it may not be able to fulfill orders for customers who wa

Distillation makes AI models smaller and cheaper

The Chinese AI company DeepSeek released a chatbot earlier this year called R1, which drew a huge amount of attention. Most of it focused on the fact that a relatively small and unknown company said it had built a chatbot that rivaled the performance of those from the world’s most famous AI companies, but using a fraction of the computer power and cost. As a result, the stocks of many Western tech companies plummeted; Nvidia, which sells the chips that run leading AI models, lost more stock valu

Google DeepMind's Aeneas model can restore fragmented Latin text

At its best, AI is a tool, not an end result. It allows people to do their jobs better, rather than sending them or their colleagues to the breadline. In an example of "the good kind," Google DeepMind has created an AI model that restores and contextualizes ancient inscriptions. Aeneas (no, it's not pronounced like that) is named after the hero in Roman mythology. Best of all, the tool is open-source and free to use. Ancient Romans left behind a plethora of inscriptions. But these texts are oft

It Looks Like the Tesla Model Y Refresh Has Bombed

Despite Elon Musk stepping away from his DOGE activities, Tesla’s sales have continued to slide. No doubt Musk hoped that the release earlier this year of the refreshed Model Y would help reverse these fortunes; however, describing the six-year-old midsize crossover EV as “new” appears not to have attracted as many buyers as Tesla anticipated. Model Y is crucial for Musk; it accounts for roughly two-thirds of Tesla's global sales (though this fluctuates). Last year, however, according to JATO D

Five things you need to know about AI right now

3. AI is power hungry and getting hungrier. You’ve probably heard that AI is power hungry. But a lot of that reputation comes from the amount of electricity it takes to train these giant models, though giant models only get trained every so often. What’s changed is that these models are now being used by hundreds of millions of people every day. And while using a model takes far less energy than training one, the energy costs ramp up massively with those kinds of user numbers. ChatGPT, fo
