OpenAI's Servers Meltdown & Raises $40 Billion Dollars, Runway's Amazing New Gen-4 AI Video & More AI News

OpenAI’s servers melted down as it opened up ChatGPT 4o Image Generation to everyone… and then nerfed it hard. Thankfully, their new raise of $40 BILLION DOLLARS will help.

We dive deeper into all the cool ways people are using it (and aren’t able to use it any more) along with news about OpenAI Academy & how GPT-4.5 beat the Turing Test. Then Runway Gen-4 is here and it’s VERY good, OmniHuman-1 does AI lip sync right, Meta’s new Hypernova AR glasses are revealed, Anthropic takes on the black box of AI & we take another deep dive at AI Big Booty Bears (not really).

IT’S A WEEK OF NERFING BUT IT’S ALL FINE. REALLY GOOD SHOW.
