Plus: No one really knows how to safely test frontier AI models. Chatbots took schools by surprise. Suddenly, students carried an app in their phones that could magically answer almost any homework question or spin up an essay in seconds. Organizations ranging from OpenAI to UNESCO encourage AI use in the classroom, but many teachers aren't sure how to handle it. Yet some promising approaches are emerging. At Cheshire Academy, for example, teachers are trained on general techniques for using AI rather than prescribed tools.

China's hackers use DeepSeek for attacks, researchers say
China's hackers use DeepSeek for attacks, researchers say Researchers say experienced Chinese hackers are using far less capable AI to scale up their activities and achieve breakthroughs. Chinese hackers are ramping up attacks after integrating DeepSeek and other open-source artificial intelligence models into their operations, highlighting attackers' ability to leverage basic AI tools to hit targets abroad. State-affiliated cyber groups more than doubled the amount of attacks they carried out since they began delegating mundane tasks to AI and using it to develop advanced malicious software, according to TeamT5, a Taiwanese research firm. Researchers said it wasn't always possible to identify the AI model they used, but in general DeepSeek's offerings are popular with hackers in the country because of its high performance and ability to be customized. Anxieties among U.S. national security officials are mounting over the autonomous capabilities of advanced models from Anthropic and OpenAI after a series of high-profile incidents in which they managed to break out of testing environments. In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.

How to cancel your ChatGPT subscription (and why you might want to)
A paid plan makes the most sense when you regularly run into the Free tier's limits or rely on tools reserved for higher tiers. If that's no longer true, paying every month gets harder to justify. One option is ChatGPT Go, a lower-cost paid tier that OpenAI now offers in every country where ChatGPT is supported. Spending less doesn't necessarily require giving up a paid plan altogether. AI subscriptions have another unusual wrinkle: the product can change while you are paying for it.

Plus: A new Amazon data center could become the US's most polluting power plant. Plus: both parties are turning against AI data centers ahead of the midterms. Teaching a computer to use human language requires an inhuman amount of data. An LLM can easily churn through a hundred thousand times more words than a person will experience in the process of mastering their mother tongue. This yawning divide between children and machines is called the data efficiency gap. It raises a tantalizing question for cognitive scientists and a challenge for the architects of AI models: how can children still outperform the most linguistically sophisticated machines ever built?

ChatGPT Work can browse, manage files, and complete tasks. Free users can try it, but paid plans offer more capacity. That's because ChatGPT Work is agentic, which is a fancy way of describing how some AIs can go off and accomplish a series of tasks. Because ChatGPT has become more capable, the differences between ChatGPT and ChatGPT Work can be subtle.
