Musk’s biggest loyalist became his biggest liability
I sat down in the Musk v. Altman trial courtroom today, painfully aware that no one was going to ask Shivon Zilis the question on everyone's minds: Girl, what the fuck are you doing? Zilis, who testified under oath that she is the mother of four of Musk's children, was… what's the best way to characterize this? A Musk advisor? She denies she was a "chief of staff" but says she worked for Musk's "entire AI portfolio: Tesla, Neuralink, and OpenAI" starting in 2017. The two met through OpenAI, and they had what she referred to as a "one off" before becoming "friends and colleagues." The "one off," she confirmed, was "romantic in nature." Her … Read the full story at The Verge.

OpenAI's new voice model brings GPT-5-level reasoning to real-time conversations
OpenAI is shipping three new voice models—GPT-Realtime-2, GPT-Realtime-Translate, and GPT-Realtime-Whisper—that can reason in real time, translate across 70+ languages, and transcribe live speech. GPT-Realtime-2 brings reasoning that OpenAI says matches GPT-5. The article OpenAI's new voice model brings GPT-5-level reasoning to real-time conversations appeared first on The Decoder.
Meet ZAYA1-8B, a super efficient, open reasoning model trained on AMD Instinct MI300 GPUs
Even as leading AI providers like OpenAI and Anthropic battle over the compute to train and release ever larger, more powerful models, other labs are going in a different direction — pursuing the development of smaller, more efficient models and often open sourcing them. The latest worth paying attention to comes from the lesser-known Palo Alto startup Zyphra, which this week released its new reasoning, mixture-of-experts (MoE) language model, ZAYA1-8B, with just over 8 billion parameters and only 760 million active — far fewer than the trillions estimated for the likes of the big labs. Yet, ZAYA1-8B retains competitive performance on third-party benchmarks against GPT-5-High and DeepSeek-V3.2. It can be downloaded from Hugging Face now free of charge under a permissive, standard, enterprise-friendly Apache 2.0 license — and enterprises and indie developers can begin using and customizing it immediately to suit their needs. Individual users can also test it themselves here free at Zyp

Aurora’s Chris Urmson on why self-driving trucks are finally ready to scale
Self-driving has been “almost here” for over a decade. But somewhere between DARPA challenges and a handful of driverless trucks hauling freight between Dallas and Houston, Aurora co-founder and CEO Chris Urmson’s story changed. The self-driving truck company started commercial driverless operations last April and is now scaling from a handful of trucks to hundreds this year.

The app store for robots has arrived: Hugging Face launches open-source Reachy Mini App Store with 200+ apps
There's an app for nearly every imaginable user and use case these days, but one thing they all have in common is that they're centered around one device: the smartphone. That changes today as Hugging Face, the 10-year-old New York City startup best known for being the go-to place online to host and use cutting-edge, open-source AI models, agents and applications, launches a new App Store for Reachy Mini, its low-cost ($299) open-source physical robot that debuted back in July 2025 (itself the fruit of Hugging Face's acquisition of another startup, Pollen Robotics). The new Hugging Face Reachy Mini App Store already hosts a library of over 200 community-built applications, and Reachy Mini owners will be able to download any of these free of charge to start (unlike smartphone apps, there's no monetization option for app creators on this store — yet). The Reachy Mini App Store will also offer Reachy Mini owners — around 10,000 units have been sold so far since last year — an easy means
