Since debuting last spring, OpenAI's Codex coding app has seen standalone Mac and Windows releases, so it was only a matter of time before OpenAI gave people a way to access their Codex projects on mobile. Starting today, all ChatGPT users, including those using the chatbot through OpenAI's Go and Free tiers, can use the software through the ChatGPT app on Android and iOS. To be clear, you won't be using Codex to program on your phone. Instead, the ChatGPT mobile app is acting here as a intermediary between you and whatever environment you've set it up for your coding projects, whether that be a physical device like a Mac mini or a remote space managed by your company. That might seem limiting, but it does mean your files, credentials and permissions stay secure on the machine where Codex is running.

Hollywood may have some conflicted feelings about the use of AI for content creation, but Netflix seems ready to jump in the deep end.

Considering INKubator is still hiring pretty key roles like a head of technology, it may be a while before viewers see anything the group produces. To start, the team's goal appears to be making animated shorts and specials, but there are suggestions that Netflix has greater ambitions for INK.

Why sovereignty over data and models is becoming a defining factor in enterprise AI success,as well as a prerequisite for forging safe agentic systems. When generative AI first moved from research labs into real-world business applications, enterprises made a tacit bargain: "Capability now, control later." Feed your proprietary data into third-party AI models, and you will get powerful results. But your data passes through systems you do not own, under governance you do not set. The protections you rely on are only as durable as the provider's next policy update. Now, with generative AI established in everyday business operations and sophisticated new agentic AI systems advancing every day, companies are reevaluating the terms of that deal.

The Download: deepfake porn's stolen bodies and AI sharing private numbers Plus: the US has approved Nvidia chip sales to 10 Chinese firms. When Jennifer got a research job in 2023, she ran her new professional headshot through a facial recognition program. She wanted to see whether it would pull up the porn videos she'd made more than a decade earlier. It did, but it also surfaced something she'd never seen before: one of her old videos, now featuring someone else's face on her body.

But another group often gets ignored: the people whose bodies those faces are attached to.

If it wasn't already clear, Elon Musk and Sam Altman hate each other. While the two men were once cofounders of OpenAI, they're now locked in a vicious feud, playing out in all its theatrics in front of a judge and jury in a California courtroom. Musk is suing, alleging that Altman and OpenAI president Greg Brockman tricked him into forming and funding the organization as a non-profit before they subsequently restructured it to have a for-profit entity.

OpenAI floats idea of global AI governance body with U.S. and China The U.S. has an opportunity to use its lead in artificial intelligence technology to create a global governance mechanism to ensure safer, more resilient systems, OpenAI's vice president of global affairs, Chris Lehane, said.

When asked about the China summit, OpenAI's vice president of global affairs, Chris Lehane, said Wednesday that the U.S. has an opportunity to use its lead in AI technology to create a global governance mechanism resulting in safer, more resilient systems. "AI, in some level, transcends a lot of the prevailing or traditional trade type of issues," Lehane told reporters during a briefing at the company's offices in Washington. "There is an opportunity to really start to build something up globally, and have countries around the world, including China, potentially participate."
