    Sorry Gooners: OpenAI's Erotic ChatGPT Delayed Into 2026

    Looking forward to OpenAI’s erotic evolution? You’ll have to wait a bit longer. OpenAI is pushing back the company's adult content feature to at least early 2026, breaking a high-profile December deadline that CEO Sam Altman set just two months ago. As first reported by The Verge, Fidji Simo, OpenAI's CEO of applications, told reporters Thursday during the GPT-5.2 briefing that the company's adult mode will now debut sometime in the first quarter of next year. The delay stems from ongoing work...

    Bitcoin Isn’t Buying What the Fed Is Selling: Here’s What the Charts Suggest Happens Next

    The crypto market isn't buying what the Fed is selling. Despite the Federal Reserve delivering its widely expected 25-basis-point rate cut to the 3.5%-3.75% range on Wednesday, Bitcoin and Ethereum are both in the red, with the broader crypto market sitting at $3.07 trillion—down 2.25% from yesterday. While traditional markets rallied on the news, crypto took a different path. The S&P 500 closed up 0.67% and the Nasdaq gained 0.42%, but digital assets hemorrhaged value. The disconnect may sugges...

    A Startup Is Trying to Take the Twitter Name From Elon Musk by Force—And It Might Work

    When Elon Musk bought Twitter in 2022 only to kill the brand in 2023, he probably didn't expect someone would try to bring it back from the dead. But a small Virginia startup called Operation Bluebird just asked the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to cancel X Corp's Twitter trademarks—so they can use the name themselves for a rival platform at twitter.new. “The public square is broken, but we still believe in it. One brand tried to fix it [and] then burned it all down. We are bringing it back—t...

    US Tech Giants Unite to Battle China’s Open-Source AI Dominance

    Some of the largest tech titans in the U.S. just joined hands to launch a new Agentic AI Foundation. The group—formed by Anthropic, OpenAI, and Block, with support from Google, Microsoft, AWS, Bloomberg, and Cloudflare—comes together at a moment when China is rapidly pulling ahead in global open-source AI adoption, forcing America’s fiercest competitors into the same tent. “Open standards and protocols like MCP are essential to enabling a thriving developer ecosystem for building agents," Cloudf...

    Crypto Markets Flash Green, But Bitcoin and Ethereum Are in a Death Cross: Analysis

    Monday's trading session is painting the crypto market with a bit of green, but before you start planning your Lambo order, check the charts—they urge a more cautious approach. The overall crypto market capitalization stands at $3.08 trillion, according to CoinMarketCap, about 1% lower than yesterday but at least still within the $3 trillion territory that bulls had been desperately defending. Also, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index has clawed its way up to 24—still firmly in "Fear" territory—but...

    Mistral Roars Back With Frontier AI Family That Goes Head to Head With DeepSeek

    French AI startup Mistral, often dismissed as the European underdog in a field dominated by American giants and Chinese upstarts, just caught up: It dropped its most ambitious release yet on Tuesday that gives the open-source competition a run for the money. (Or no money, in this case.) The 4-model family spans pocket-sized assistants to a 675 billion parameter state of the art system, all under the permissive Apache 2.0 open-source license. The modes are publicly available for download—anyone w...

    China's Z-Image Dethrones Flux as King of AI Art—And Your Potato PC Can Run It

    Alibaba's Tongyi Lab Z-Image Turbo, a 6-billion-parameter image generation model, dropped last week with a simple promise: state-of-the-art quality on hardware you actually own. That promise is landing hard. Upon days of its release, developers had been cranking out LoRAs—custom fine-tuned adaptations—at a pace that's already outstripping Flux2, Black Forest Labs' much-hyped successor to the wildly popular Flux model. Z-Image's party trick is efficiency. While competitors like Flux2 demand 24GB...

    Bearish Signals Abound for Bitcoin and Ethereum: Here’s What the Charts Say

    The bleeding in the crypto market isn’t stopping today. Bitcoin dropped 7%, Ethereum lost 9.52%, XRP tanked 9.4%, and Solana plummeted 10.35%. Not a single coin in the top 100 by market cap is in the green except for the lesser known Merlin Chain, which somehow climbed 34% while everything else burned. The total crypto market cap fell as low as $2.89 trillion, down 7.22% in the last 24 hours. To put that in perspective: Bulls have surrendered all the territory they gained since April, and the ma...

    I Made an AI Speak Every Century of English—It Ended With a Message From the Year 15,000

    If you've ever tried reading Chaucer in the original Middle English, then you know the feeling. The words look almost familiar, but your brain can’t quite piece the puzzle together. Now try actual Old English from the year 900, and you hit a wall: "Þu sprycst be wundrum þe ic ne mæg understandan." That's not a typo. That's a real letter (þ, called "thorn") that English used for centuries before abandoning it entirely. Language, as we all know, evolves. Just ask the Gen Z crowd. While English los...

Now with Opus joining its siblings, Anthropic offers developers a complete toolkit: Opus for complex production work,...

    Bitcoin in a Death Cross: How Low Will We Go?

    Bitcoin bags are getting blown out today, as the price of BTC falls to nearly $80,000 and marks a new seven-month low. The continued downward pressure on its price has pushed Bitcoin into a so-called death cross—when the average price of an asset over the short term falls below the average price over the long term. It’s a technical pattern that typically signals extended bearish momentum. For traders who study charts, it confirms what permabulls don’t want to hear: It’s over—at least for now. It...

    America's Open Source AI Gambit: Two Labs, One Question—Can the US Compete?

    Two American AI labs released open-source models this week, each taking dramatically different approaches to the same problem: how to compete with China's dominance in publicly accessible AI systems. Deep Cogito dropped Cogito v2.1, a massive 671-billion-parameter model that its founder, Drishan Arora, calls "the best open-weight LLM by a U.S. company." Not so fast, countered The Allen Institute for AI, which just dropped Olmo 3, billing it as "the best fully open base model." Olmo 3 boasts comp...

    A recent post has gone viral on X because Grok, billed as the ultimate truth-seeking AI chatbot, declared its creator the most fit, intelligent, charismatic, and handsome person on the planet. The memetic event started Wednesday when X users began asking Grok to compare Musk with random celebrities and historical figures. Asked to choose who was fitter—between billionaire businessman Elon Musk and singer Billie Eilish—Grok didn't hesitate. "Billie's got curves and vibe, but Elon's enduring the...

    Bitcoin Enters Death Cross—And Ethereum Isn’t Far Behind: Analysis

    Crypto traders and investors who bought near highs in recent months are getting absolutely rekt right now, as hype fades and the market bleeds. Bitcoin is down to around $88,000, falling more than 20% over the last 30 days. The crypto market as a whole today fell to $3.04 trillion—down 4.82% in 24 hours—with 95% of all coins bleeding red. The Fear and Greed Index just hit 16, the lowest reading since April, firmly in extreme fear territory. To put this in perspective: Zcash is the only coin in t...

    Google released Gemini 3 Pro in a public preview today, calling it the company's most capable AI model to date. The system handles text, images, audio, and video simultaneously while processing up to 1 million tokens of context—roughly equivalent to 700,000 words, or about 10 full-length novels. The preview model is available for free for anyone to try here. Google said the model outperformed its predecessor, Gemini 2.5 Pro, across nearly every benchmark the company tested.

    Survey of AI Founders Predicts Perplexity is the AI Giant Most Likely to Fail

An anonymous survey conducted by independent journalist Alex Heath at a major industry gathering last week pointed to a marked shift in Silicon Valley sentiment. When asked which private tech companies they'd invest in, attendees picked Anthropic over OpenAI, despite the consensus that OpenAI would lead next year...

    This One Weird Trick Defeats AI Safety Features in 99% of Cases

    AI researchers from Anthropic, Stanford, and Oxford have discovered that making AI models think longer makes them easier to jailbreak—the opposite of what everyone assumed. The prevailing assumption was that extended reasoning would make AI models safer, because it gives them more time to detect and refuse harmful requests. Instead, researchers found it creates a reliable jailbreak method that bypasses safety filters entirely. Using this technique, an attacker could insert an instruction in the...

    Moon or Doom: Will Ethereum Defy Bitcoin Drop and Bearish Signals?

    As the crypto market loses steam, and the price of Bitcoin falls to lows not seen since early summer, traders are eyeing up alternative assets: Where does the price of Ethereum, the second-largest crypto asset by market, go next? Ethereum, which trades as ETH, opened today at $3,415.8 and has climbed to $3,473.2—a modest 1.69% gain that's doing little to ease the tension around where ETH heads next. Prediction markets tell differing stories, and the charts suggest one of narratives may be suffer...

Palantir dropped as much as 16% on Tuesday before closing down approximately 8%. The decline came despite the company beating third-quarter earnings estimates and raising its full-year guidance. Nvidia fell between 2% and...
