AI For Humans: Making Artificial Intelligence Fun & Practical

• OpenAI's GPT-5 Is Here. It's Very Good AI But Not AGI

  OpenAI’s GPT-5 is out & it’s the best AI model! For now. Overall, the benchmarks are good-not-great but the vibes are off-the-charts. We dive into the DEEP end. Sam Altman brought the whole team out for a long demo of GPT-5. It’s great at coding! It’s better at writing! It has new AI personalities! It will not hallucinate nearly as much! Which is more than we can say for the OpenAI graphics department.  Then, Google Deepmind’s Genie 3 shows us what the next generation of AI *might* look like with its new world model. Anthropic isn’t left out with a 4.1 update to its Claude Opus model. Eleven Labs drops an new AI music model, also great. And finally xAI drops Imagine AI Image & Video generation which, lets just say, can get a little *too* spicy.  And, finally, Unitree’s Hunter Stellar Hunter robot scares the hell out of us. NEW MODELS FOR EVERYONE! SCARY ROBOTS AT THE END FOR JUST YOU! #ai #ainews #openai Join the discord: https://discord.gg/muD2TYgC8f Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AIForHumansShow AI For Humans Newsletter: https://aiforhumans.beehiiv.com/ Follow us for more on X @AIForHumansShow Join our TikTok @aiforhumansshow To book us for speaking, please visit our website: https://www.aiforhumans.show/   // Show Links // OpenAI’s GPT-5 Announcement Live Stream https://www.youtube.com/live/0Uu_VJeVVfo?si=PzayOarIJqw1AUTA ChatGPT-5 Promo Video https://x.com/OpenAI/status/1953504357821165774 Ethan Mollick “it’s very good and it just does stuff…” https://x.com/emollick/status/1953502029126549597 Benchmarks Are…Fine? https://x.com/ArtificialAnlys/status/1953504796549558527 OpenAI Chart Crime https://x.com/EMostaque/status/1953503036501877053 Theo T3-GG’s Tweet https://x.com/theo/status/1953514692439347419 New OpenAI ChatGPT Personalities https://x.com/OpenAI/status/1953534071772262511 OpenAI Open Weight Models https://openai.com/open-models/ OSS Minecraft Test https://x.com/adonis_singh/status/1952806201617510759 Google DeepMind’s Genie 3: World Model https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/genie-3-a-new-frontier-for-world-models/ Good Information Dense hands on from Google Scientist https://x.com/tejasdkulkarni/status/1952737669894574264 Good Knight Example https://x.com/philipjohnball/status/1952767070623437063 Emergent Behavior of Video T-Rex https://x.com/jkbr_ai/status/1953154961988305384 Claude Opus 4.1 https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-opus-4-1 Eleven Labs Music https://x.com/elevenlabsio/status/1952754097976721737 Musician Using It: https://x.com/elevenlabsio/status/1953424556246384814 Grok Imagine https://techcrunch.com/2025/08/04/grok-imagine-xais-new-ai-image-and-video-generator-lets-you-make-nsfw-content/ Our Grok Imagine Examples https://x.com/AIForHumansShow/status/1952067002488779102 Mesh-Blend 3D AI for Unreal Engine https://x.com/EHuanglu/status/1952017300946911368 Kitten TTS Tiny Model Runs On Devices https://x.com/divamgupta/status/1952762876504187065 Unitree Stellar Hunter Robot (good lord) https://x.com/UnitreeRobotics/status/1952672597558309136 Kwindla’s Voice Game Demo https://x.com/kwindla/status/1952947685012717659 Neural Viz Sydney Sweeney Parody https://x.com/NeuralViz/status/1952531202482856053

• OpenAI’s GPT-5 Leaks Show Us The Future (Of Next Week??)

  OpenAI’s GPT-5 is coming soon and it is…good?. Mystery models have been testing on various platforms that may show us the future of OpenAI’s newest AI & the future of the space. Sam Altman’s company has been ramping up the hype machine entering next week when most expect GPT-5’s release (as well as a new possible Google model). Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg is talking up Meta’s personal Super Intelligence plans. Also, Runway’s Aleph & Ideogram’s Character mode give us more AI video tools while new emergent behavior lets you prompt Google’s VEO 3 in amazing ways. And a very *spooky* new Robot Watch where we foreshadow our impending doom!

• OpenAI Teases GPT-5 as America Goes Full 'AI Action' Mode

  OpenAI’s Sam Altman dribbles out GPT-5 teases as the White House’s AI Action plan lays out exactly how all-in America is on the future of AI. Plus, SO MUCH AI NEWS. GPT-5 is (we hope?) around the corner and we’re getting small snippets like the mysterious new model that’s incredible at coding & the AI model that won gold at the International Math Olympics. Plus, Netflix & Disney are both using AI video in some of their new projects, Vine might be coming back as an AI video app & two great new AI audio models. IT’S A NEW DAY. SAME AS THE OLD DAY.
