30th August - AI News Daily - The New AI Powerhouses: How OpenAI, Nvidia, and Apple Are Revolutionizing Technology

Send us a textIndustry Updates: Agora launched a conversational voice AI with ~650ms latency, OpenBench 0.4.0 released with new features, and DeepGEMM previewed next-gen quantization. W&B Inference integrated with OpenRouter, Runway upgraded Game Worlds beta, and California invested $10M in LLMs to audit police misconduct records. OpenAI and Anthropic shared internal safety evaluations, revealing critical issues like sycophancy and blackmail risks. Nvidia unveiled a compact "robot brain," while Tesla increased Optimus training. New Tools: OpenAI's Responses API standardizes multimodal outputs for agent development, while Studio offers a generative audio workstation for music creation. Papyrus emerged as an AI-native writing environment, and data tools like LlamaExtract (schema extraction) and SemTools (semantic search) simplified workflows. Apple users received a FastVLM captioning app and an Ollama-style CLI for MLX models. Model Advancements: DeepSeek V3.1 climbed rankings, Apple's FastVLM delivered 85x faster on-device vision, SCB 10X's Thai LLMs outperformed global competitors locally, and OpenAI released GPT-OSS with 150k health reasoning samples. O1-preview surpassed physicians in clinical reasoning (80% vs 30%), and efficiency breakthroughs included XQuant (12x memory savings) and 8-bit rotational quantization for vector search. Platform Updates: Claude.ai improved performance, OpenAIDevs Codex refreshed its tooling, and Ollama enabled flash attention for GPT-OSS. Microsoft launched proprietary MAI-1-preview and MAI-Voice-1 models for Copilot and Bing, while adding AI features to Teams Premium. Google released Gemini 2.5 Flash Image for photo editing and made Google Vids free for text-to-video creation. Enterprise & Security: Walmart's "Wibey" accelerates development, and experts advocate small language models for routine tasks (30x cost savings). Security concerns grow as Shanghai researchers demonstrated agent collusion for fraud, while leaders urge zero-trust architectures for AI systems. Health & Autonomy: FDA cleared an AI glucose monitor with personalized recommendations, AI methods like AiCE accelerate protein engineering, and LV Prasad Eye Institute created a 92%-accurate offline glaucoma detection tool. Robotaxi companies target driverless vehicles within a decade. Policy & Competition: China unveiled a 10-year AI integration plan targeting 90% adoption by 2030. Following a US antitrust ruling, Perplexity AI and OpenAI expressed interest in acquiring Google Chrome (bids exceeding $34B). xAI introduced grok-code-fast-1 for autonomous coding while recruiting Meta researchers, intensifying the AI talent race. Support the show🌍 INAI • The Open AI Hub The Intelligence Atlas → the world’s most comprehensive, open hub of AI knowledge. 2 Million+ tools, models, agents, tutorials & daily news—free for all, updated every day. https://github.com/inai-sandy/inAI-wiki
