The City Attorney's Office sent the tech giants cease-and-desist letters this week telling them to stop profiting from 13 "face-swap" apps that are overwhelmingly used to target women and girls. Apple and Google have been ordered to take down apps that can "nudify" or "undress" people and told that they must stop profiting from the harmful technology, according to cease-and-desist letters sent to the companies seen by WIRED. On Thursday, San Francisco city attorney David Chiu sent legal notices to Apple and Google demanding that they remove from their app stores 13 face-swapping apps, which allow users to create AI-generated nonconsensual nude images. The letters say the Silicon Valley giants should stop "aiding and abetting" the sale of explicit deepfake images and "sever" business relationships with the app developers. "Generating non-consensual intimate images is illegal, harmful, and completely unacceptable," Chiu tells WIRED.

Despite positioning itself as an anti-hookup app, users tell WIRED that Goose has fake profiles, harsh acceptance standards, and problems with inclusivity. When Erick Hall heard that Goose, a new "anti-algorithm" dating app, was less focused on hookups, he was drawn to its mission. The New York City -based OnlyFans creator, who has over 800,000 followers on X, explains he has to hook up "all the time" for work. Because Goose was marketing itself as an alternative to that, he was curious what it had to offer. During the sign-up process he chose a few selfies where he was fully clothed; in one, wearing a black shirt, a baseball cap, and blue jeans, he pulled his shirt upward showing off his abs.

PCWorld tested ChatGPT's new "computer use" functionality in the recently released super-app, which allows the AI to control desktop applications on macOS. The GPT-5.6 Sol model successfully played chess and wrote in Journal apps, demonstrating advanced understanding of game strategy and graphical interface navigation. This desktop control capability positions ChatGPT alongside Claude's similar features, with OpenAI suggesting uses for testing and automating repetitive tasks. Just a few months ago, I could barely get an AI agent to open the Chess app on my Mac, much less actually play a game of it. But after testing the all-new ChatGPT super-app, I can report that the days of clunky AI "computer use" functionality are pretty much over. Released last Thursday, the ChatGPT super-app boasts a variety of features, including the built-in Codex coding harness and ChatGPT Work, an AI agent that can tap into your local files and create detailed reports in seconds. The revamped ChatGPT also supports "computer use," allowing it to take control your PC's mouse and desktop apps. Computer use functionality isn't new--the Claude desktop app has supported it for months--but it new for ChatGPT, so I decided to give it a go. I fired up ChatGPT on my Mac mini, switched the app to "Work" mode, set the model to GPT-5.6 Sol ( the latest and greatest OpenAI model), and gave it a simple prompt: "Can you play chess on my Mac?" ChatGPT asked me to approve some new permissions, including the ability to record my screen so it could see what it was doing.

The company's long-awaited super app is here. Since the start of March, OpenAI has been publicly working on a desktop super app designed to bring together ChatGPT, its Codex coding agent and Atlas web browser under one roof. In April, the company began laying the groundwork for that project, and now it's taking its biggest step toward realizing that vision with the release of ChatGPT Work . OpenAI describes its latest offering as something of a general purpose productivity agent. Where Codex was designed primarily for coding projects, OpenAI says Work is here to help people with some of their most ambitious tasks.

Meta appears to have soft-launched a new app called Pocket that's aimed at getting people to vibe-code their own minigames. Mobile developer and reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi spotted Pocket and posted about it to X today, but reporting platform AppFigures told TechCrunch that the app has been available on both iOS and Android since June 29. Though the app is listed publicly, it's not available in the US on any of the half dozen phone models associated with our Google accounts, and a help page on Meta's site says the Pocket app is not yet available everywhere. The company has not made any public announcement yet about the launch or where the app is being trialed. We've reached out for comment and will update this post if we receive a response.

I ripped open $892 worth of Pokémon packs on my phone in under 15 minutes and walked away with 62 cents. My adrenaline rush felt like the future of gambling. After I tripled my money by pulling pricey Pokémon cards out of digital packs on the Rips app, I immediately knew what I had to do next: keep on ripping. It was time to lock in, boost my volatility settings, and start spending real money opening even more expensive packs. These digital card packs, primed for fast ripping and even faster rewards, are rising in popularity.

Touted as a less-hookup-focused Grindr, Goose is an invite-only space for gay men. The problem is the people promoting it don't seem real. "You're receiving this because you're exactly the type of person we're building this for," the caption reads, accompanied by a code for an invite to a "members only community." The link leads to a login for Goose, a dating and friendship app for gay men with the slogan "for the boys," which allows users to "meet guys through the life you already have," according to its website. Neither does @danielmmulugeta, the cute dark-haired influencer who shared the above caption, with the exact same verbiage, on Close Friends' Stories.
