    AI's Wild Week: GPT-Live Voice, Perplexity's Secret Coding Agent & Grok 4.5's Price War

    The US government just became a major player in AI releases. Anthropic's Fable 5 got pulled offline under export controls while OpenAI's GPT-5.6 faced its own review, and both are now shipping with no restrictions. That's the number one story this week. Plus: Perplexity's AI coding agent has been quietly running its own software team since May, managing entire projects without hand-holding. OpenAI's new GPT-Live voice mode is already talking to 150 million people a week, with real-time, back-and-forth conversations. Meta's Muse image model just hit second place on independent leaderboards and rolled into Instagram and WhatsApp for free. SpaceX's Cursor released a foundation model trained on rocket-company infrastructure. And Anthropic's research into what models "think" before they respond, using its J-space probes, revealed internal reasoning signals that affect safety outcomes. This is The AI Edition from Collata Media, hosted by Parker Gate: the AI stories that matter, ranked and all in one place. New episodes twice a week.
