1/ ChatGPT Hits 150M Weekly Users with Viral AI Art!

ChatGPT’s new Ghibli-style AI image tool just sent its user numbers soaring, hitting 150 million weekly active users for the first time this year. The viral trend saw millions creating dreamy, hand-drawn animations in the style of Studio Ghibli, pushing OpenAI’s app downloads and revenue to all-time highs. At its peak, ChatGPT was adding 1 million users per hour, overwhelming servers and causing outages. But not everyone is thrilled—legal experts are questioning potential copyright issues, and Ghibli’s co-founder Miyazaki, who once called AI art "disgusting," probably isn’t amused.

2/ Alexa’s Brain Just Got an AI Upgrade—Meet Nova Act

Amazon just dropped Nova Act, an AI agent that can independently control web browsers—think filling forms, managing calendars, and more. It outperforms OpenAI and Anthropic in reliability and is set to power Alexa’s next big upgrade. The Nova Act SDK lets devs build AI agents for real-world tasks, aiming to make autonomous assistants actually useful. With Amazon’s massive Alexa user base, this could be a game-changer—if it works as promised.

3/ Gen-4 Turns AI Video from a Toy into a Tool

Runway just dropped Gen-4, and it’s a game-changer for AI video. It keeps characters, objects, and scenes consistent across shots—no more weird glitches. You can create pro-level 5-10 second videos in 1080p with solid physics and scene control. Big names like Amazon and Madonna are already using it. This isn’t just AI fun—it’s real filmmaking tech now. Expect AI-generated videos to start looking a whole lot more cinematic.

4/ OpenAI Lost $5B… And Just Scored $40B More?

AI just crushed the Turing test—GPT-4.5 fooled humans 73% of the time in UC San Diego’s latest study. Judges chatted with both AI and real people, relying on casual convo and emotional cues to tell them apart. Turns out, AI did it better, even outperforming actual humans in some cases. Meta’s LLaMa-3.1 also held its own with a 56% success rate, while older models barely hit 20%. The Turing test used to be the ultimate AI benchmark—now, it’s just another milestone in the AI takeover.

5/ AI Power Without the Price Tag? Cohere Just Cracked the Code

Cohere just dropped Command A, an enterprise AI model that’s fast, efficient, and runs on just two GPUs—a huge win for companies looking to cut costs. It outperforms GPT-4o and DeepSeek-V3 in speed, business tasks, and multilingual support while packing a 256k context window for handling massive documents. Plus, it integrates seamlessly into Cohere’s North platform for secure AI-powered workflows. With superior efficiency and enterprise-ready features, this could be a game-changer for private AI deployments.
