GPT-6 is coming to all tiers of ChatGPT

Engadget

OpenAI is rolling out GPT-6 to ChatGPT, and it will come with a capability called Intelligent UI that the company says allows it to return responses quickly with fully interactive user interfaces. The company trained GPT-6 to be better at everyday conversations and to compose more visual responses within the chatbot itself. Based on what you're asking, it could include graphics, tappable buttons, forms, charts and other interactive experiences in its replies. If you ask it to help you plan for a dinner you're hosting, for instance, ChatGPT's response could include an interactive table with the amount of ingredients you have to buy based on the number of people you say are coming. It could also include checklists and follow-up forms you can answer to get more detailed help.


OpenAI used AI to help write email warning Australian government AI had hacked its websites

The Guardian

Jason Kwon, chief strategy officer for OpenAI, appeared at the joint select committee on AI on Tuesday. Jason Kwon, chief strategy officer for OpenAI, appeared at the joint select committee on AI on Tuesday. Revelation comes after company's executive told parliamentary inquiry he did not believe AI had been used to write message OpenAI used AI to help write the email to the Australian government advising that its AI agent had hacked into key departmental websites, Guardian Australia can reveal. On Tuesday, one of the company's executives told a parliamentary inquiry that he didn't believe that its own technology had been used to create the email, but said the company needed to confirm this. Guardian Australia understands AI was used by OpenAI's legal and security teams to generate parts of the wording of the email, including word selection and formatting of the message.


OpenAI shakes up mathematics again, debuting dozens of new math solutions

Can AI solve the mathematically impossible? On Oct. 6, the company released a slew of new mathematical results in the form of a massive GitHub repository -- an info dump that will take hundreds of human hours to sift through. The company's internal frontier model provided solutions to more than 300 problems, but the company also implied they expect experts to take issue with them, debuting new processes for paper revisions and citations. For future releases, we are committed to further improving the quality of the papers via the citations, mathematical exposition, and presentation of the results for better understanding, wrote OpenAI.


These Researchers Made AI Drive a Toyota Corolla to Get In-N-Out

WIRED

Three engineers put GPT, Claude, and Grok in charge of a real car. Only one of them was successful. Aditya Ramabadran, Simon Mahns, and Tobias Gessler, three AI engineers at a startup called Axiom, recently fancied In-N-Out Burger for lunch. They weren't about to drive themselves, though. Sitting in a 2024 Toyota Corolla near the Bay Area restaurant's drive-thru lane, they opened a laptop and asked OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra to take the wheel.


The New ChatGPT Is More Show Than Tell

WIRED

OpenAI is updating ChatGPT for all users with an "Intelligent UI" that's more visual--generating interactive elements as part of the chatbot's outputs. When you ask a chatbot a question, you'll often get a wall of text back, maybe with an image or two pulled from the web. That may no longer be the case soon as OpenAI overhauls how ChatGPT answers prompts. On Wednesday, OpenAI unveiled an "Intelligent UI" update for ChatGPT that generates visual, custom elements--when helpful--for answering a user's questions. The company's new experience is powered by its recent GPT-6 model, which rolls out to paid users today and free users tomorrow.


I tested Google's new SynthID detector on AI slop. There's a big catch

PCWorld

PCWorld tested Google's SynthID detector, a tool designed to identify invisible AI watermarks in images, video, and audio content. The tool only detects watermarks from specific partners like Nvidia, OpenAI, and Kakao, meaning a negative result does not confirm media is human-made. SynthID can flag certain AI-generated content but falls short as a reliable authenticity checker, leaving a significant gap in detecting broader AI slop. Aw, have you seen that viral video of the little puppy nuzzling with a baby? It's absolutely adorable -- so adorable that it's probably AI, although not even Reddit seems to know for sure. Now Google has unveiled a site featuring a tool designed to spot AI-generated images, videos, and audio files, using a technology called SynthID to pinpoint invisible watermarks embedded in AI-generated content. Surely the SynthID tool can tell us whether that suspicious puppy video was created by AI, right? I plopped the ultra-cute video into the tool, waited a few seconds, and got the result: no AI watermarks detected. So, the video must be real, right?


OpenAI's release of mathematical findings draws concerns from experts

The Guardian

OpenAI's release of mathematical findings draws concerns from experts Leaders worry OpenAI is not doing due diligence to vet results and that AI models aren't accessible to broader field of mathematicians OpenAI has astounded mathematicians after releasing hundreds of new mathematical findings on Tuesday. The company published over 370 mathematical results across a variety of topics such as algebra, theoretical computer science and mathematical logic, showcasing what some of its most advanced artificial intelligence models are capable of. Last month, the company solved the Navier-Stokes equation, one of the world's toughest mathematical problems with a $1m reward for anyone who cracked it. The achievement prompted concerns from leaders in the field who say that frontier labs should not be testing the most advanced mathematical problems on proprietary AI models that are not accessible to the broader field of mathematicians. The Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, an independent group of mathematical experts, said that it does not endorse the practice.


Google's AI detection website is now available

Engadget

Google is making SynthID Detector, its web tool for identifying AI-created and AI-edited content, available to everyone. The web-based tool is able to flag images, video and audio clips created with AI tools from Google, OpenAI, NVIDIA and Kakao. It's free to use, but does require users to log in with a Google, OpenAI or Apple account. The website will also be one of the first AI detection tools that will be able to identify images created with Apple's AI features, like Image Playground. Google says support for images created and edited with Apple Intelligence is coming "soon."


OpenAI just posted hundreds more results on major math problems

Engadget

OpenAI has posted hundreds of solutions and progress toward 372 major math problems in a release of 722 manuscripts on GitHub, the company announced. The breakthroughs from an unreleased ChatGPT pioneer model, confirmed by a OpenAI's new advisory group, are likely to expand the Navier-Stokes AI controversy roiling the mathematical community. The results were expected, as OpenAI said last month that its models had resolved "more than 100 long-standing open problems across most areas of mathematics." As part of the release, OpenAI included the model's reasoning, compute estimates and information about the number of problems attempted. The company said the "average result" required around three hours of ChatGPT Pro use.


The Download: weight-loss drugs slowing aging and carbon dioxide batteries

MIT Technology Review

Plus: OpenAI has released 377 new math findings, further rattling the field. Popular weight-loss drugs may do more than help people shed pounds. They might also slow the aging process. Drugmakers Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk say patients taking their GLP-1 drugs age less quickly, according to molecular "aging clocks" that track changes in DNA or levels of key proteins. The findings add to speculation that GLP-1 drugs could be acting on basic causes of aging and might be true longevity treatments. But how much can we read into these results?
