OpenAI released initial estimates about the share of users who may be experiencing symptoms like delusional thinking, mania, or suicidal ideation, and says it has tweaked GPT-5 to respond more effectively. For the first time ever, OpenAI has released a rough estimate of how many ChatGPT users globally may show signs of having a severe mental health crisis in a typical week. The company said Monday that it worked with experts around the world to make updates to the chatbot so it can more reliably recognize indicators of mental distress and guide users toward real-world support. In recent months, a growing number of people have ended up hospitalized, divorced, or dead after having long, intense conversations with ChatGPT. Some of their loved ones allege the chatbot fueled their delusions and paranoia.

Elon Musk could leave Tesla as CEO if his proposed $1 trillion pay package is not approved, Board Chair Robyn Denholm has warned. The appeal was sent in a letter to shareholders of the electric car company on Monday. It comes ahead of Tesla's November 6 annual meeting, when shareholders are expected to vote on the proposed pay package, the largest of its kind. The proposed performance-based plan was designed to retain and motivate Musk to continue leading Tesla for at least another seven and a half years, Denholm said in the letter. Musk's leadership is "critical" to Tesla's success, she said, and warned that without a plan that properly incentivises him, the company could lose his "time, talent and vision".

The Download: what to make of OpenAI's Atlas browser, and how to make climate progress I tried OpenAI's new Atlas browser but I still don't know what it's for OpenAI rolled out a new web browser last week called Atlas. It comes with ChatGPT built in, along with an agent, so that you can browse, get answers, and have automated tasks performed on your behalf all at the same time. I've spent the past several days tinkering with Atlas. I've used it to do all my normal web browsing, and also tried to take advantage of the ChatGPT functions--plus I threw some weird agentic tasks its way to see how it did with those. My impression is that Atlas is fine? But my big takeaway is that it's pretty pointless for anyone not employed by OpenAI.

The great wildebeest migration, seen from space: satellites and AI are helping count Africa's wildlife The Great Wildebeest Migration is one of the most remarkable natural spectacles on Earth. Each year, immense herds of wildebeest, joined by zebras and gazelles, travel 800-1,000km between Tanzania and Kenya in search of fresh grazing after the rains . This vast, circular journey is the engine of the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem. The migration feeds predators such as lions and crocodiles, fertilises the land and sustains the grasslands. Countless other species, and human livelihoods tied to rangelands and tourism, depend on it.
