OpenAI's GPT-5 Stumbles On The Rocky Road To AGI

SECRET PROJECT IN DISCORD: https://discord.gg/muD2TYgC8f

Is this the AI slow down? OpenAI's GPT-5's first week was kind of rough but Sam Atlman is working on it. GPT-4o is back for those who missed it but AI might not get to the Singularity as fast as people think. GPT-5 *did* crush Pokemon & a new version got a gold medal in the International Programming Competition. 

Plus, new Anthropic Claude updates, Sam & Elon are feuding again, Apple's new tabletop robot, Matrix Game 2's playable AI worlds, Meta's AI permissions fumble and maybe… most importantly…

Robots can now do our laundry. 

ROBOTS PLEASE DO ALL OUR CHORES. WE WILL BE NICE.
