This one is for the analog fans: #Kodak announces new film.
Despite being replaced for most of us with digital photography, analog film remains popular with a community that's growing every day. For this community, Kodak has announced its first new film products in 7 years: Kodacolor 100 and 200.
Now, technically, these aren't completely new - Kodak describes them as "sub-brands of existing Kodak films". However, there is something new - for the first time in over a decade Kodak itself is distributing this film.
Kodacolor 100 (second sample image) is a low-speed, daylight-balanced film that delivers saturated colors, fine grain and high sharpness. Kodacolor 200 (first sample image) is very similar, but can perform better in low light.

#OpenAI just changed the game - meet apps in ChatGPT.
Building on the proven MCP protocol, ChatGPT apps are essentially parts of other apps that can be launched inside ChatGPT. An app can be referenced in a message and show its own UI.
The first apps are available today from partners like Coursera and Figma, and an SDK is available for developers.
Alongside apps, OpenAI announced the availability GPT-5 Pro and Sora 2, its latest video generation model that offers realistic videos, in its API for developers making apps with AI. Thanks to this, Sora 2 is already available in some third-party apps like Higgsfield.

#Samsung's new virtual reality headset finally has an announcement date.
After announcing a partnership with Google and Qualcomm to make XR devices in 2023 - and countless teasers after that - Samsung has finally announced the reveal date of Project Moohan, the first Android XR headset: October 21, at 10 PM ET.
Samsung has already shared some information, like health and safety warnings, and the headset can be pre-registered on Samsung's site. Both Samsung and Google are hard at work behind the scenes, with the former adding Galaxy XR support to the camera app on its phones via Camera Assistant and the latter testing a "Spatial" tab in Google Photos.

OpenAI launches ChatGPT Atlas, its web browser.
#ChatGPT becomes your internet copilot: this is ChatGPT Atlas.
After looking to acquire Chrome, #OpenAI, the creators of the popular ChatGPT AI assistant, launched its first web browser. Curiously, it is based on Chromium, which is the tech behind Google Chrome.
ChatGPT is deeply integrated into Atlas: it is the home page, and it can be quickly opened in a sidebar in any page, which gives it the ability to read the opened website. It also has access to browser history and can help with highlighted text. For Pro subscribers, the AI assistant can also take control of the browser, similarly to the earlier ChatGPT agent feature.
ChatGPT Atlas is available now on macOS for Macs with Apple Silicon.
