Description: 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. #ai #ainews #openai Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AIForHumansShow AI For Humans Newsletter: https://aiforhumans.beehiiv.com/ Follow us for more on X @AIForHumansShow Join our TikTok @aiforhumansshow To book us for speaking, please visit our website: https://www.aiforhumans.show/   // Show Links // OpenAI’s Sam Altman Interview with Nikhil Kamath https://youtu.be/SfOaZIGJ_gs?si=O48zZSKwbv3w3oL8 Sam Tweet On ChatGPT Changes  https://x.com/sama/status/1955438916645130740 People Hated Losing 4o’s Charming Personality https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2025/08/openai-brings-back-gpt-4o-after-user-revolt/ Sam’s Deeper Dive On Attachment https://x.com/sama/status/1954703747495649670 GPT-5 Reality Check on Super Intelligence https://www.zdnet.com/article/why-gpt-5s-rocky-rollout-is-the-reality-check-we-needed-on-superintelligence-hype/ GPT-5 Crushes Pokémon Red 3x faster than o3 https://x.com/clad3815/status/1955980772575268897?s=4 OpenAI Reasoning System (Not GPT-5 regular) Gets Gold In International Programming Competition https://x.com/SherylHsu02/status/1954966109851119921 Claude Sonnet 1m Token Context https://x.com/claudeai/status/1955299573620261343?s=46 Elon VS Sam Next Round: Apple App Store Drama https://x.com/sama/status/1955094792804720660 Apple Rejects Elon’s Bias Claims https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn842x1v1n1o Head of xAI Leaves The Company https://x.com/ibab/status/1955741698690322585 Apple Tabletop Robot + More https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/08/report-apples-smart-home-ambitions-include-tabletop-robot-cameras-and-more/ Playable AI World MATRIX GAME 2 https://huggingface.co/Skywork/Matrix-Game-2.0 Meta’s AI Chatbots were allowed “sensual” conversations with minors https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/meta-ai-chatbot-guidelines/ Figure 02 LAUNDRY FOLDING BABY https://x.com/Figure_robot/status/1955290971660251220 1x Tech Robot Holds 40 Pound Rice Bag https://x.com/BerntBornich/status/1954974590138191977 Would Humanoid Robot Games https://x.com/unitreerobotics/status/1955928317355549137?s=46 The ‘Clanker’ Discussion https://x.com/eigenrobot/status/1954761814526296100
