OpenAI has upgraded ChatGPT’s default GPT-5 model to better recognize signs of distress, respond empathetically, and guide users toward real-world help. Built with input from over 170 mental health experts, the update reduces undesired responses in difficult conversations by 65–80% marking a major advance in AI safety and emotional awareness.

Highlights:

  • Detects signs of psychosis, mania, or self-harm with higher accuracy.

  • Redirects users to hotlines and professional care when needed.

  • Recognizes unhealthy attachment and encourages real-world connections.

  • Expert review shows 39–52% fewer unsafe responses versus GPT-4o.

Why it matters:
This update reframes ChatGPT not just as a conversational AI, but as a responsible digital companion one that supports users with compassion, recognizes human fragility, and connects technology back to care.

MINIMAX

MiniMax has launched MiniMax M2, an open-source model built for Agents and code—designed to balance speed, cost, and intelligence. At just 8% the price of Claude Sonnet and running at 2× the speed, M2 is now free to try and fully open-sourced on Hugging Face.

Highlights:

  • Excels at coding, reasoning, and long-chain tool use.

  • Integrates with Shell, Browser, Python, and MCP tools.

  • ~100 tokens per second throughput with low latency.

  • $0.30 per million input tokens, open-sourced on Hugging Face.

Why it matters:
MiniMax M2 redefines the AI value triangle—performance, price, and speed—making high-capability Agent models accessible to everyone. It’s a step toward the company’s vision of “Intelligence with Everyone,” bringing AGI-level workflows to real-world developers.

The U.S. Department of Energy has joined forces with AMD in a $1B deal to build two AI-powered supercomputers. Fueled by AMD’s MI355X chips, the systems will drive breakthroughs in fusion energy, cancer research, and defense innovation, marking the fastest large-scale deployment in U.S. AI history.

Qualcomm has entered the data center race with new AI accelerator chips—the AI200 and AI250 set for 2026 and 2027. Built for large-scale inference, these systems promise lower power use, higher memory, and cost efficiency, sending Qualcomm stock up 11% as it challenges Nvidia and AMD in the trillion-dollar AI chip market.
