    Sora 2 - the start of the infinite slop-feed or a key step to a generalist agent? Better than VEO 3 or over-hyped? I bring out 6 details you may have missed, contrast the announcement to Periodic Labs and even squeeze in some Claude Sonnet 4.5 analysis.

    ChatGPT Will Guess your Age, Flirt if Asked, and Can Call the Cops

    Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, announced a set of new ‘protections’ and ‘privileges’ for ChatGPT users, requiring a significant amount of trust from users. From predicting your age based on your chat to calling law enforcement if you are at risk of harm, to allowing non-minors to flirt. But amidst all of these announcements, there are interview snippets you may have missed, as Altman dramatically revises his predictions of AI impact on jobs. Plus a Hassbis backtrack to boot. https://80000hours.org/aiexplained Calling the Cops: https://openai.com/index/teen-safety-freedom-and-privacy/ Age Prediction: https://openai.com/index/building-towards-age-prediction/ Not Everyone Will Agree: https://x.com/sama/status/1967955739911364693?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet Theory 1: NYT Lawsuit: https://openai.com/index/response-to-nyt-data-demands/ Theory 2: FTC Investigation into AI Companions: https://x.com/AndrewCurran_/status/1966167585994764743 YT Does the Same: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/youtube-ai-powered-technology-teen-users/ Carlsen Interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KmpT-BoVf4 vs Senate Testimony (70% Jobs): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CWVP8-XVjQ Hallucinations Paper: https://cdn.openai.com/pdf/d04913be-3f6f-4d2b-b283-ff432ef4aaa5/why-language-models-hallucinate.pdf Hassbis Quote 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toShbNUGAyo vs Quote 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kr3Sh2PKA8Y
