Do Americans dream of AI?

Artificial intelligence is making its way into more and more areas of our lives and it seems that includes our dreams.

New research from Amerisleep.com, shows that one in five Americans have dreamed about AI and 16 percent are doing so several times a month. While these dreams may reflect curiosity, some reveal anxieties about the role of technology.

OpenAI ChatGPT

OpenAI has confirmed the rollout of Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Contacts Connectors in ChatGPT.

Available to Pro and Plus tiers, the connectors come hot on the heels of the recently added Box, Canva, Dropbox, HubSpot, Notion, Microsoft SharePoint, and Microsoft Teams integrations. By granting ChatGPT access to Gmail emails, Calendar entries and Contacts data, the AI should be able to provide more personalized and relevant information.

Consumers are putting more trust in AI searches

AI search

A new survey of over 2,000 consumers across the US, UK, France and Germany looks at how people are adopting, and trusting, AI tools to discover, evaluate, and choose brands.

The study from Yext finds that 62 percent of consumers now trust AI to guide their brand decisions, putting it on par with traditional search methods used during key decision moments. However, 57 percent still prefer traditional search engines when researching personal, medical or financial topics.

OpenAI launches Codex as powerful new ChatGPT feature while Grok flounders

There’s a weird divide in the AI world these days. While Grok keeps making headlines for all the wrong reasons, OpenAI is pushing ahead with features that actually seem useful for developers. The newest one is called Codex, and it’s built right into ChatGPT for anyone with a Pro, Team, or Enterprise account. Sorry, Plus users.

Codex doesn’t just suggest code, it operates almost like a teammate that can jump into your repository, set up its own isolated workspace, and get to work on whatever you ask. Whether you need a bug fixed, a question answered, or a feature built, Codex can handle it. When it’s done, you get a real code commit and a detailed log showing every step the AI took. How cool is that?

Someone tried to activate every version of Microsoft Windows using ChatGPT -- Here's what happened

You’ve possibly seen people online try to use ChatGPT to generate valid product keys for paid software, including different versions of Microsoft Windows.

YouTuber Gameboy Hub set out to test how successful ChatGPT is at generating, or sourcing, product keys to activate various versions of Microsoft Windows -- starting from Windows 95 and working up to Windows 7 (from where, in theory, it could be possible to upgrade to Windows 10 and Windows 11).

Popular LLMs produce insecure code by default

A new study from Backslash Security looks at seven current versions of OpenAI's GPT, Anthropic's Claude and Google's Gemini to test the influence varying prompting techniques have on their ability to produce secure code.

Three tiers of prompting techniques, ranging from 'naive' to 'comprehensive,' were used to generate code for everyday use cases. Code output was measured by its resilience against 10 Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) use cases. The results show that although secure code output success rises with prompt sophistication all LLMs generally produced insecure code by default.

OpenAI releases GPT 4.1 models and Elon Musk should be terrified for Grok

OpenAI has just thrown a serious wrench into the AI landscape with the release of three new models: GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1 mini, and GPT-4.1 nano. They’re dramatic improvements over GPT-4o, raising the bar for what AI can actually do. If Elon Musk wasn’t already nervous about Grok falling behind, he probably should be now. In comparison, Grok is starting to look a bit… dusty.

At the top of the stack is GPT-4.1, which now dominates in critical areas like coding, long-context comprehension, and instruction following. This model scores 54.6 percent on SWE-bench Verified, a benchmark designed to measure real-world software development ability. That puts it well above GPT-4o and even higher than GPT-4.5, which it’s now set to replace. Developers relying on these models to generate accurate patches or edit large codebases are going to find GPT-4.1 a lot more practical.

Google unveils Gemini 2.5 in a desperate bid to catch up with ChatGPT

Today, Google introduces Gemini 2.5. Initially, it will only be available as the experimental Gemini 2.5 Pro. And yes, as you can predict, the search giant is calling its newest AI model the most advanced version yet.

While the company promises huge improvements in reasoning and coding, the move feels more like Google playing catchup to OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Let’s be honest, folks -- ChatGPT has dominated public attention and enterprise adoption for months.

Apple launches new iPad Air with M3 chip, AI features, and updated Magic Keyboard

Despite owning a fancy iPhone 16 Pro Max, I also have an iPad Air. Why? Well, even though my iPhone has a pretty big screen, sometimes I just want even bigger. Plus, I can use it when my iPhone is charging.

Why didn’t I go with an iPad Pro? Quite simply, Apple’s Pro tablets are too expensive for what I mostly use them for -- media consumption. Hell, I don’t need an expensive iPad Pro for watching TikTok on the toilet.

OpenAI launches GPT-4.5 AI model and Elon Musk should be very worried

OpenAI has just announced GPT-4.5! While the company says the model is its most advanced AI yet, there’s definitely more to this release than meets the eye. Version 4.5 is a clear warning for anyone betting against OpenAI, including Elon Musk.

GPT-4.5 is being labeled a “research preview,” meaning OpenAI is still testing its strengths and weaknesses. With that said, it is apparently smarter, more natural in conversations, and better at avoiding mistakes than previous models. That could signal big trouble for xAI’s Grok, which Musk has been pushing as an alternative to OpenAI’s models.

AI code assistants speed up development but add to risks

New research from Apiiro shows that while AI code assistants are accelerating development times they're also increasing risks.

AI code assistants have seen rapid adoption since the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022. Microsoft reports that more than 150 million developers now use GitHub Copilot, up 50 percent over the past two years.

ChatGPT’s Deep Research AI could take jobs from human researchers

OpenAI has unleashed Deep Research in ChatGPT, a new AI-powered tool that can handle complex online research tasks faster than a human ever could. Available today for Pro users, with Plus and Team access coming soon, this feature is designed to synthesize information from hundreds of online sources, analyze data, and generate detailed reports. OpenAI says it can complete hours of research in just minutes -- but should we really be celebrating this?

This latest AI capability is powered by an optimized version of OpenAI’s upcoming o3 model, fine-tuned for web browsing and deep data analysis. Unlike a simple search engine, it doesn’t just find information -- it thinks about it, pivots when necessary, and compiles its findings into structured reports. That means it isn’t just doing research -- it’s acting like a research analyst. And if AI can do that, what happens to the actual researchers?
