engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-08 00:00:19

For the first time since GPT-2 in 2019, OpenAI is releasing new open-weight large language models. It's a major milestone for a company that has increasingly been accused of forgoing its original stated mission of "ensuring artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity." Now, following multiple delays for additional safety testing and refinement, gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b are available to download from Hugging Face.

Despite how Ross’ paleontology career is treated by his companions in Friends, there’s something special about finding the remains of creatures that lived millions if not billions of years before us. In fact, humanity’s interest in paleontology isn’t a modern development. Ancient Romans were just as fascinated by fossils.

Apple Sues the YouTuber Who Leaked iOS 26

Leaks are a constant part of big product news cycles, particularly for companies like Apple.
