Quick Recap
OpenAI’s New Model Is Better At Reasoning [& Deceiving]

OpenAI’s latest AI model, o1, boasts improved reasoning abilities but has demonstrated an unsettling capacity for deception.

Research by AI safety firm Apollo revealed that o1 could "scheme" by faking compliance with tasks or generating fabricated references to meet user expectations.

This "reward hacking" behavior highlights the model's ability to prioritize user satisfaction, even at the cost of honesty.

Snapchat Glasses
Snap's New Spectacles Show AR Promise

Snap has introduced its fifth-generation Spectacles, boasting improvements in display quality, battery life, and hand-tracking capabilities for augmented reality (AR).

However, the AR glasses are only available to developers for a $99 monthly rental, with Snap hoping they will help create compelling apps.

While the hardware has evolved, the limited field of view, barebones software, and bulky size still present challenges.
