Hello AiNews Readers!
Programming Note
Thank you for your patience today! I was testing the brand-new GPT-5 to help turn an audio interview into the written piece below—but with everyone in the world 😉 also trying it out, there were a few glitches along the way. As a result, we only have two main news articles for you today.
Also, a quick heads-up: there will be no newsletter this Monday, as I’ll be in Las Vegas speaking at the Ai4 Conference on Data-Driven Marketing with AI: Extracting Value from Customer Data. We’ll be back with your regular AI updates on Tuesday—see you then!
