1/ Zuck, Elon… Sam’s Coming for You.

Looks like OpenAI might be cooking up its own social network—think X meets ChatGPT image-gen vibes. Word is, there’s already a prototype with a social feed, and Sam Altman’s been quietly getting feedback on it. No clue yet if it’ll be a new app or baked into ChatGPT, but it’s definitely fueling the Altman vs Musk vs Zuck saga. The move could also score OpenAI tons of fresh, real-time training data. Altman’s already thrown shade at both rivals before, so this could be the next big power play.

2/ 4.1 Mini Outsmarts 4o? Yep. And It’s Cheaper Too.

OpenAI just dropped GPT-4.1, along with its mini and nano versions—and they’re all about better coding, smarter instructions, and crazy long context (up to 1M tokens). GPT-4.1 outperforms 4o and 4.5 across the board, and mini even beats 4o in some key areas while being way cheaper and faster. Nano is tiny, speedy, and perfect for lightweight tasks, though not as strong as Flash by Gemini. These are API-only, so devs get the goodies first. Also, GPT-4.5 is being phased out by July 14, so it’s time to start switching over.

3/ Chinese AI Just Dropped a Bombshell—KLING 2.0 Is Here

Kling AI just dropped KLING 2.0 Master and KOLORS 2.0—and they’re coming in hot. The video model now nails smooth, cinematic scenes from multi-step prompts, while the image model can create and edit in over 60 styles. You can even tweak images with inpainting or give them a fresh new vibe with restyling. Plus, their older video model is getting a handy editor to add or swap stuff with text. All in all, Chinese AI tools are leveling up fast—and KLING’s not playing around.

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.
