It sounds like a joke, but Google Research claims a prompting trick that actually works: paste your prompt twice, exactly the same, before sending it 🤖📋

In a recent preprint, they show that turning <QUERY> into <QUERY><QUERY> improves results when the model is not asked to reason. Across many benchmarks and models, repetition wins most comparisons and never clearly loses.

They also report that outputs don’t get longer and latency usually stays the same, since the extra cost is in reading the prompt, not generating the answer. Important caveat: once you ask the model to “think step by step,” the effect is mostly neutral. And padding the prompt with junk doesn’t work, so it’s not just about more context.

If you try it, repeat the entire prompt, not just the question. Just keep in mind you’re doubling input tokens, so you pay more and use up context faster.

ChatGPT is still the nº1 AI site, but its lead is shrinking fast. New Similarweb numbers show ChatGPT dropping to 64.6% global traffic share while Google’s Gemini jumped to 22%, and that’s the first time since 2023 ChatGPT has been under 65%.

The story isn’t "ChatGPT is falling apart", it’s Google finally turned distribution into growth. Gemini is everywhere in Google’s ecosystem, and that kind of default placement is brutally effective. If this trend holds, the market won’t be one king anymore, it’ll be two giants and a long tail fighting for scraps.

Google just released Genie, a real time world simulator you can actually walk through 🌍 Text or images turn into explorable worlds with object permanence and environments that keep expanding instead of collapsing.

This isn’t a game engine or a video model. It’s a foundation model for worlds 🧠 Today you move and look around. Tomorrow, those worlds respond.

China is pushing AI into classrooms as a major nationwide experiment, aiming to use the tech for things like grading, lesson design, supporting rural educators, and monitoring student progress.

Local schools and counties are now free to choose commercial AI systems and integrate them into daily education for four key areas: assisting teachers, streaming better lessons to remote areas, tracking how students do, and keeping an eye on student behavior or mental health.

Overall, this rollout isn’t heavily funded—Beijing sets the direction and goals, tech companies provide solutions, and it’s up to local officials to innovate with their existing resources.

OpenAI researchers have made significant progress by solving five more Erdős problems with their internal AI model. This achievement highlights how artificial intelligence is advancing in serious mathematical reasoning. 🔍

Personally, I found the solution to Erdős Problem 1091 especially fascinating. The question considers whether a graph with chromatic number 4, but all its smaller subgraphs having chromatic number at most 3, must contain an odd cycle rich in diagonals. OpenAI's model delivered a clear counterexample, shedding light on the issue.

For those interested, it’s a great challenge to try and reconstruct the proof from Figure 5—it's an enjoyable exercise for math enthusiasts.

Nano-Banana Pro makes turning complex Mermaid diagrams into clear images a breeze. Its ability to handle intricate syntax and quickly produce visuals is impressive. This tool is a real asset for anyone who works with diagrams regularly. 💡

The latest Grok Imagine update is truly impressive. It's fascinating to see how quickly this tool is evolving and pushing the boundaries of what we thought was possible. Every new release seems to bring unexpected features and improvements, making it an exciting time to follow its progress. 🚀

Claude Mythos Preview is now in private testing at $25/$125 per million tokens, but access is strictly limited to approved partners.

Because of its advanced cybersecurity abilities, Mythos isn’t available to the public. Instead, a select group—including major tech companies—are testing it through a $100M+ initiative called Project Glasswing.

What sets Mythos apart? It goes beyond typical bug-detection—this model autonomously chains multiple vulnerabilities to reach root or remote code execution, bypassing defenses that usually require rare human skills. During internal tests, it uncovered zero-days across all major systems, patched a 27-year-old OpenBSD flaw, and exploited old FreeBSD and Linux bugs—all on hardened systems. Even staff without security experience could request powerful exploits.

Anthropic just submitted patches to FFmpeg, reportedly using its latest model, Claude Mythos. The code quality is indistinguishable from that of top-tier engineers.

If these were truly discovered and written by AI, things are about to get really strange, very fast.

OpenAI is preparing to introduce a new model with enhanced cybersecurity features, but like Anthropic’s Mythos Preview, it will only be available to a select group of trusted organizations for now. This cautious, phased release reflects a growing trend: as AI models get better at independent hacking tasks, companies are starting to handle launches much like responsible vulnerability disclosures, emphasizing control and oversight over speed. 🔒

Avatar V just achieved a Face Similarity score of 0.840 and a Sync-C score of 8.97, leading its category. For reference, the highest possible “ground truth” is measured at 0.861. With just one more update, HeyGen’s avatars could become almost impossible to distinguish from real video.

We’re now introducing Avatar V, which finally solves the challenge of character consistency. Just record yourself for 15 seconds and, from that moment on, the system can generate videos in any style while perfectly capturing your likeness, expressions, and quirks.

This model is the new standard for AI avatars—a bold statement, but the data backs it up. 👀

⚖️🤖 Musk sues OpenAI for "stealing a charity." Jury: you waited too long.

The AP reports that a federal jury in Oakland unanimously tossed Elon Musk's lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI. The jury found Musk had three years to sue and simply did not file on time. Judge Gonzalez Rogers immediately adopted the verdict and dismissed all claims.

90 minutes of deliberation. Three weeks of trial, private emails, Brockman's diaries, Satya Nadella on the stand. Didn't matter. The merits never got touched.

By ruling on timing, the jury dodged the actual question of whether donors to nonprofit AI labs have standing to challenge for-profit conversions under charitable trust law. That question is still live. Musk's team says they're appealing.

OpenAI heads toward its trillion-dollar IPO with the biggest legal threat dead on arrival, and accountability for the nonprofit-to-profit pivot remains untested.

🇨🇳⚡️ Ex-Samsung chip chief says China will pop the DDR5 price bubble by H2 2027

Kye-hyun Kyung, former head of Samsung's DS Group, says Chinese firms investing aggressively in memory production could flood supply and push prices down in the second half of next year.

CXMT leads the charge. Kyung cites data projecting global production capacity at 6 million wafers/month by H2 2027.

He warns that if Big Tech cuts AI budgets, the industry could flip straight into severe oversupply.

⚡️ Bigger quant beats aggressive compression on Qwen3.6 35B

ByteShape benchmarked NTP vs MTP GGUFs across 4090, 5090, 4080, 5060 Ti, plus Intel, Ryzen, and Raspberry Pi 5.

MTP gives GPUs a 20-40% gen-speed boost. CPUs? It just adds overhead. Stick to NTP on CPU.

Lower bpw is not automatically better. Largest quant that fits often won.

🔐 1Password keeps your secrets out of Codex's brain entirely

1Password released an MCP server for OpenAI Codex that pulls credentials from vaults at runtime, then discards them. Mounted, used, gone.

Credentials never appear in code, terminals, or the model's context window. That last part matters most.

Just-in-time credentials are the new seatbelt for AI coding agents.
