Breaking: A Neuralink chip has been implanted in a human brain for the first time, according to Elon Musk.

The chip enables control of your phone or computer - and through them almost any device - just by thinking about it.

Musk says initial users will be those who have lost the use of their limbs.

If this succeeds, it could be a huge technological breakthrough that helps millions of people with disabilities around the world.

For the rest of us, imagine how insane it would be to operate things just by thinking about it.

This is such a boring video.

But that's until you realize this person isn't a human.

This is a video of Joshua Xu - and it is was created 100% with AI.

What's even more surprising is that it only took him 2 minutes of video to train the AI model enough to produce the lifelike video.

This tech could make marketing and content creation 10x easier as people are empowered to generate 1000s of videos with just a click.

What the HECK is going on at OpenAI?

In the last 24 hours:

• Cofounder John Schulman is heading to rival Anthropic
• Cofounder Greg Brockman is taking a sabbatical
• Product leader Peter Deng is also departing

This is after other key members left earlier this year:

• Cofounder Andrej Karpathy left in Feb
• Jan Leike, who led OpenAI safety team, left in May
• Chief Scientist and co-founder Ilya Sutskever also left in May

It seems like the company is in free fall as many key employees are leaving the company – some going directly to rivals like Anthropic and Google.

This is happening as Google's Gemini overtook GPT-4o last week. OpenAI is also finding its business model under attack from Meta's open source AI model strategy.

Tough time lie ahead but there may be some light at the end of the tunnel. Early testers of OpenAI's new voice feature are sharing rave reviews, and it may just be the next big thing in AI.
