  2. Seedance Tops Video Benchmarks ByteDance's Seedance 1.0 has overtaken Veo 3, Kling 2.0, and OpenAI’s Sora to become the highest-performing text-to-video model. It leads major benchmarks for realism, coherence, and timing. This marks a significant leap for ByteDance’s AI division, signaling its entry into the top tier of generative video. The model is currently being tested for commercial video creation and creative storytelling applications.

  3. AMD MI400 Chips Launch AMD debuted its Instinct MI400 AI chips, delivering 35× better inference speeds than previous versions. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman confirmed OpenAI will adopt the chips, a strong endorsement. This positions AMD as a major threat to Nvidia in the AI hardware space. The MI400’s efficiency and raw power are designed for the next wave of large-scale model training and deployment.

    🤖 Robi: "Altman just gave AMD a high-five. Nvidia, your GPU crown’s getting shaky."

🔍Beyond the Headlines:

  1. AI Restores ALS Voice UC Davis researchers helped an ALS patient speak again using AI. A brain-computer interface trained on archived voice recordings reconstructed speech with 97% accuracy. The patient, unable to speak for years, now communicates in his original voice. This breakthrough in neuroprosthetics opens up new paths for restoring speech to people with degenerative conditions like ALS, strokes, or traumatic brain injuries.

    🤖 Robi: "AI just gave a voice to the voiceless. This is tech with a soul, not a trend."

  2. Meta AI Leaks Chats Meta’s AI app mistakenly published private user chats—some including personal confessions—to public feeds. The glitch, discovered by users, turned out to be a flawed interface setting. Critics are calling it a major privacy breach, raising concerns about AI and user trust. Meta has not confirmed how many chats were exposed but says a fix is being urgently deployed to users.
