Sam Altman says Elon Musk wanted 90 percent of OpenAI in high-stakes trial

Al Jazeera

In a United States court, OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman has rejected claims from fellow tech mogul Elon Musk that he betrayed the artificial intelligence company's original vision. Tuesday marked the start of Altman's testimony in a contentious trial unfolding in Oakland, California, between some of tech's richest and most powerful titans. He alleged that OpenAI's leader persuaded him to invest $38bn, based on a goal of improving humanity, only to see the company pivot to a for-profit venture in 2019. On the witness stand on Tuesday, Altman instead framed Musk as a competitor obsessed with exercising control over OpenAI. "It does not fit with my conception of the words'stealing a charity' to look at what has actually happened here," Altman told the court.


A decade on, Trump will return to a stronger and more assertive China

BBC News

When China's leader Xi Jinping hosts his American counterpart in Beijing this week, Donald Trump will be reminded of his last visit in 2017 - he was wooed hard, complete with dinner inside the Forbidden City, an honour no US president before him had received. This week's reception promises to be just as grand, including a stop inside Zhongnanhai, the rarefied compound where China's top leadership lives and works. The agenda too will be just as thorny, with Iran being a new source of tension, alongside trade, technology and Taiwan. But a lot has changed as Trump returns to a stronger and far more assertive China. Now well into an unprecedented third term, an ambitious Xi has been pushing forward with plans for new productive forces with heavy investments in renewable energy, robotics and artificial intelligence.

MAHA Keeps Being Weird as Hell About Fertility

WIRED

RFK Jr. and Mehmet Oz's comments about teen sperm count and "underbabied" Americans at a recent women's health event underscore the White House's pronatalist agenda. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., secretary of Health and Human Services, and President Donald Trump discuss workplace IVF benefits on October 16, 2025, in Washington, DC. The home page for Moms.gov, the Trump administration's recently launched website for "new and expecting mothers," is a trad wife's dream. Featuring soft pastel graphics and a photo of a young, white, blond woman in a field clutching her pregnant belly, the website offers resources for women of reproductive age such as anti-abortion "pregnancy centers," as well as a CDC website listing potential workplace hazards for expecting mothers without noting accompanying legal protections for pregnant women. If you were conspiratorially minded, you might conclude from the website alone that the Trump administration is champing at the bit for young (white and blond) women to have as many (white and blond) babies as possible.

UK promises jets, drones and warship for Strait of Hormuz defence mission

BBC News

The UK has said it will contribute drones, fighter jets and a warship to a joint mission aimed at safeguarding shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Defence minister John Healey announced the package at a virtual summit of defence ministers on Tuesday. It includes autonomous systems to detect and clear naval mines, drone boats and Typhoon jets for air patrols.

For months Iran has been controlling the Strait of Hormuz - one of the world's busiest oil shipping channels - in retaliation for US and Israeli attacks.


Iran Is Using Tiny 'Mosquito' Boats to Shut Down the Strait of Hormuz

WIRED

Iran Is Using Tiny'Mosquito' Boats to Shut Down the Strait of Hormuz Iran's traditional naval fleet has been almost completely destroyed by US-Israeli raids. But Iran's Revolutionary Guard has deployed a fleet of small vessels that is crippling every passageway. In the Strait of Hormuz, Iran has developed an asymmetrical naval strategy that is crippling the passage of container ships. This "hemostat" uses guerrilla tactics, after Iran's "traditional" fleet was almost entirely destroyed by US and Israeli attacks. No longer able to rely on specialized military ships, Tehran is using an unconventional force made up of dozens of small military vessels armed with missiles, machine guns, and drones.
