Former OpenAI and Tesla researcher Andrej Karpathy threw cold water on the AI agent hype during an interview with Dwarkesh Patel, projecting a decade-long timeline before autonomous AI systems can deliver on current promises. Karpathy believes industry messaging is overselling current agentic coding capabilities that output “slop,” saying the models “aren’t there yet.”

OpenAI made a series of calculated moves when it released Sora. The app initially had an opt-out clause for people's likenesses to be used in clips. This caused a flood of clips using copyrighted material to be created. The company then quickly pivoted to an opt-in model. This could cause legal trouble for OpenAI in the near future.

Unitree has unveiled H2, its new flagship humanoid robot, standing 180 cm tall, weighing 70 kg, and equipped with a human-like face. Early demo footage shows the robot performing dance and martial arts routines with impressively smooth motion, precise joint control, and improved stability.

Google just plugged Gemini into Maps, giving its AI direct access to real-world location data and letting developers tap the company's massive geographic intelligence trove. The capability pulls from Google’s 250M venues worldwide, feeding Gemini current business hours, customer ratings, and venue specifics via API calls.

The Wikimedia Foundation confirmed an 8% decline in human visits after refining its bot detection systems. The drop highlights a shift in how people access knowledge: many now get information directly from AI search summaries or platforms like TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
