☢️ AI Meets National Security: OpenAI’s Nuclear Partnership

When AI and nuclear security collide...
OpenAI is stepping into some high-stakes territory, partnering with U.S. National Laboratories to provide 15,000 government scientists access to its top-tier AI models. The goal? Critical research across fields like cybersecurity, disease treatment, and even nuclear weapons safety.

The details:
🔹 Scientists will gain access to OpenAI’s models for research spanning cybersecurity, power grid protection, and physics.
🔹 OpenAI and Microsoft will deploy an AI model on Los Alamos' Venado supercomputer.
🔹 OpenAI’s security-cleared researchers will consult on nuclear safety and risk reduction projects.
🔹 This follows OpenAI’s launch of ChatGPT Gov, its AI platform for federal agencies.

Why it matters: AI is quickly becoming part of the U.S.’s most sensitive security infrastructure. As its scientific power grows, AI will shift from being just a priority to a global necessity for governments worldwide. 🤖💥

📞 Google’s AI Can Now Make Your Calls for You

Good news for phone call haters—AI has your back!
Google just unveiled two new AI-powered Search Labs features that will make phone calls on your behalf. Whether you need to ask about service availability or survive a never-ending customer service hold, Google’s AI is on it.

The details:
🔹 ‘Ask for Me’ calls local businesses to check pricing, availability, and more, then sends you a summary via text or email.
🔹 ‘Talk to a Live Representative’ waits on hold for customer service calls and alerts you when a human is ready to talk.
🔹 Both features use Google’s Duplex AI for super realistic voice interactions.

Why it matters: Let’s be honest, most of us dread making calls. Now, AI can do the talking while we sit back and relax. But with AI taking over both ends of customer service, are we headed for a future where AI just talks to AI? 🤯
