OpenAI launched ChatGPT Work on July 9, 2026, and it turns ChatGPT from a chat window into an agent that finishes real projects on its own. Instead of answering a question and stopping, ChatGPT Work takes a brief, works in the background for minutes or even hours, and hands you a finished file: a spreadsheet, […]

On Friday, 10 July 2026, Apple sued OpenAI in federal court in the Northern District of California, accusing the ChatGPT maker of stealing its trade secrets to build a rival AI device.

OpenAI is shutting down ChatGPT Atlas, its standalone AI browser, on August 9, 2026, less than a year after it launched. The company confirmed the sunset on July 9, and if you built Atlas into your daily workflow on Mac, your bookmarks, history, and saved passwords will not carry over automatically. You have until that […]

OpenAI just published its prompting playbook for GPT-5.6, and the headline finding upends how most people write prompts.

The giant rule […]

OpenAI made GPT-5.6 public on July 9, 2026, and it is now the most capable ChatGPT model you can actually run. The flagship Sol tier scores 88.8% on Terminal-Bench 2.1 (and 91.9% in its Sol Ultra high-effort mode), edging GPT-5.5’s own 88.0% on the same agentic-coding test, and it ships alongside two cheaper tiers, Terra […]

OpenAI launched GPT-Live, the new ChatGPT Live voice, on July 8, 2026, and it quietly replaced the Advanced Voice Mode you have been using for the past two years. The headline change is technical but you will feel it in the first ten seconds. GPT-Live is full-duplex, which means it can listen and speak at […]

GPT-5.6 has been generally available since July 9, 2026, the day OpenAI ended a two-week lockdown that had limited the model to roughly 20 US-government-vetted organizations. The US Commerce Department’s Center for AI Standards and Innovation completed its review and cleared wider access to all three models in the family, Sol, Terra, and Luna. So […]

Claude hit #1 on the App Store free chart on February 28, 2026, pushing ChatGPT out of the top spot for the first time. The catalyst was Anthropic refusing the Pentagon’s demand to strip the guardrails off Claude for autonomous weapons and mass surveillance. The administration then told federal agencies to stop buying Anthropic products, […]

Yes, ChatGPT is free. Anyone can use it at no cost on the web and in the iPhone and Android apps, and the free plan is permanent rather than a short trial. As of 2026 the free tier runs on GPT-5.5 Instant, OpenAI’s fast everyday model, with a cap of roughly 10 messages every 5 […]

OceanHero has helped recover more than 136 million ocean-bound plastic bottles, and the counter on its homepage climbs by tens of thousands every week. The idea is simple.
