We're going to France for a stranger's wedding: a Parisian has launched a service called Invitin, where couples sell tickets to their wedding to strangers. Guests have fun, and the bride and groom recoup some of their expenses.
Tickets for weddings in Provence or Paris cost around €100-150, and the couple decides who to sell the invitation to. The rules for guests are simple: don't be late, dress according to the dress code, and behave appropriately.
Who will adapt this startup for Russians?

High-quality renders of the iPhone 17 Pro have appeared. They are not official yet, but they look nice.
The lineup was shown in the expected colors. We're already looking forward to the fall presentation, which is rumored to take place on September 9.

The Lada Vesta unexpectedly found itself featured in an advertisement for Amazon. The online retailer selected it for a banner promoting their new car sales service.
Just to clarify: the Lada Vesta is not available for sale in the United States. Currently, only Hyundai can list cars on Amazon Autos.
It's unclear how a Russian car ended up in the advertisement. Kudos to the designers for the Easter egg.

OpenAI has released two open models: gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b. According to benchmarks, they are nearly on par with the top-performing o3 and o4-mini models.
The startup describes these models as suitable for "powerful reasoning, agent tasks, and development." Users can even adjust the length of the reasoning (low, medium, or high).
Both models are available on Hugging Face.

We're watching a chess tournament among AI agents: Google has launched a platform for neural networks to compete in strategic games.
Right now, there is a live broadcast of the chess competition. Eight models are participating, including o4-mini, Grok 4, and Claude Opus 4.
Check it out here. Streams will take place every evening, and the final is scheduled for August 7th.

Creating studio-quality music: ElevenLabs has released a neural network for generating songs.
You can choose any genre and customize each part of the composition. The model generates instruments and vocal performances equally well, including complex vocals and guitar solos.
Give it a try here. The free credits are enough for 5 complete tracks.

Revolution in Science: AI has discovered new laws of physics. The model was able to explain phenomena that previously lacked the necessary technologies for study.
The neural network was trained on experimental data and fundamental principles of physics. For instance, it was able to explain the mechanics of dusty plasma for the first time—this is a hot gas containing charged particles of dust.
The model's simulation accuracy exceeded 99%. Human research had not achieved such levels due to errors in hypotheses, which the neural network is now correcting.

Android has banned customization in the EU. Due to new cybersecurity standards, Samsung is now blocking the installation of third-party software.
Starting August 1st, manufacturers in the European Union are required to lock bootloaders; otherwise, their phones will not be released on the market. Samsung has responded to these new requirements, but the ban has also affected other countries.
Smartphones can no longer have custom firmware and kernels installed. Previously, this allowed users to update their devices after official support had ended.
