    OpenAI’s GPT-5 Leaks Show Us The Future (Of Next Week??)
    Aug 1 2025
    OpenAI’s GPT-5 is coming soon and it is…good?. Mystery models have been testing on various platforms that may show us the future of OpenAI’s newest AI & the future of the space. Sam Altman’s company has been ramping up the hype machine entering next week when most expect GPT-5’s release (as well as a new possible Google model). Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg is talking up Meta’s personal Super Intelligence plans. Also, Runway’s Aleph & Ideogram’s Character mode give us more AI video tools while new emergent behavior lets you prompt Google’s VEO 3 in amazing ways. And a very *spooky* new Robot Watch where we foreshadow our impending doom! IT’S NOT SO BAD IF THE ROBOTS TAKE CARE OF US IS IT?? #ai #ainews #openai Join the discord: https://discord.gg/muD2TYgC8f Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AIForHumansShow AI For Humans Newsletter: https://aiforhumans.beehiiv.com/ Follow us for more on X @AIForHumansShow Join our TikTok @aiforhumansshow To book us for speaking, please visit our website: https://www.aiforhumans.show/ // Show Links // GPT-5 Finally Coming? https://x.com/ChatGPTapp/status/1950675512625705337 Zenith, Lobster & Nectarine Models *Briefly* Appeared On LMArena https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/1m9i0i5/gpt5_zenith_is_more_intelligent_than_o3pro/ Rumored To Be Great at Coding https://x.com/Yuchenj_UW/status/1950763090968252582 One Shot Minecraft https://x.com/BLCNYY/status/1949909724876722512 Zenith Coding Examples https://x.com/SadAlbert10/status/1950237091985818034 SVG Pelican https://x.com/benjilona/status/1950736111203954854 New Microsoft Co-Pilot Smart Mode Powered By GPT-5 https://www.theverge.com/notepad-microsoft-newsletter/715849/microsoft-copilot-smart-mode-testing-notepad Microsoft & OpenAI On The Verge of a Deal (Finally) https://x.com/morqon/status/1950212329141879124 ChatGPT Arr to $12b, Anthropic at $9b https://www.theinformation.com/articles/openai-hits-12-billion-annualized-revenue-breaks-700-million-chatgpt-weekly-active-users?rc=c3oojq&shared=4d1e944ddd2b1508 Zuck’s SuperIntelligence Labs Vision Video https://x.com/AIatMeta/status/1950543458609037550 Someone at Mira Murati’s Thinky Machines Turned Down 1 BILLION From Meta https://x.com/AndrewCurran_/status/1950242928917696751 Runway Aleph https://youtu.be/KUHx-2uz_qI?si=-7BRYuPQ0juA9HGr Examples: https://x.com/c_valenzuelab/status/1950691579041124801 https://x.com/blizaine/status/1950007468324491523 https://x.com/ProperPrompter/status/1950721487419097467 https://x.com/ProperPrompter/status/1950002466474410400 Ideogram Character https://x.com/ideogram_ai/status/1950255115753095307 Veo3 Hack: Write The Prompts On The Image https://x.com/jboogx_creative/status/1949230927504371765 https://x.com/Ror_Fly/status/1950352402416115788 https://x.com/bilawalsidhu/status/1948844167603310660 QWEN New AI Models (Open Source + Sonnet 3.5 level on low power computers) https://x.com/MaximeRivest/status/1951011344678846789 Figure 02 Autonomously Doing Laundry (this is WAY too quiet) https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1950685253447913798 Lume Scary Robot Lights https://x.com/aaronistan/status/1949862617872478664 Unitree G1 Meltdown https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1949187112018034825 YOYO IDE TOOL (nerd alert) https://www.runyoyo.com/ NBA2K With AI Filter https://x.com/willahmed/status/1950246714411036874

  • OpenAI Teases GPT-5 as America Goes Full 'AI Action' Mode

    OpenAI Teases GPT-5 as America Goes Full 'AI Action' Mode
    Jul 25 2025
    OpenAI’s Sam Altman dribbles out GPT-5 teases as the White House’s AI Action plan lays out exactly how all-in America is on the future of AI. Plus, SO MUCH AI NEWS. GPT-5 is (we hope?) around the corner and we’re getting small snippets like the mysterious new model that’s incredible at coding & the AI model that won gold at the International Math Olympics. Plus, Netflix & Disney are both using AI video in some of their new projects, Vine might be coming back as an AI video app & two great new AI audio models. IT’S A NEW DAY. SAME AS THE OLD DAY.
