Overview
- OpenAI shifted company resources to bolster ChatGPT’s speed, reliability and personalization and is planning a new reasoning model release next Monday that it claims will surpass Google’s Gemini, according to reports of an internal memo.
- Anthropic’s CEO said the company has not invoked any emergency posture and is prioritizing enterprise-focused capabilities rather than consumer engagement pushes.
- ByteDance’s Doubao preview handset on the nubia M153 sold out in a limited engineering run of roughly 30,000 units, with no added procurement for the first generation and a second-generation device under development that supply-chain sources say targets late 2026.
- After Doubao used system-level automation to operate across apps, WeChat flagged security risks and the assistant removed support for operating WeChat, underscoring the hurdle of app permissions for cross-application agents.
- Nvidia’s CFO said the company has not lost its AI lead and noted its up-to-$10 billion OpenAI investment is not a binding deal, while Morgan Stanley raised its price target to $250 and argued competitive threats are overstated.
