OpenAI opens GPT-Live-1 to developers
OpenAI just rolled out GPT-Live-1, its new full-duplex voice AI, to outside developers through its API. This lets one model handle real-time conversations, including interruptions, and delegate trickier questions to other AI models as needed. One early adopter says switching to GPT-Live-1 let them delete 23,000 lines of code—about 80% of their old voice stack.
- Handles interruptions in real time
- Delegates complex queries to backend models
- Works through a new event-driven API
- Early adopter cut codebase by 80%

Anthropic researcher resigns, warns of AI race risks
Jacob Coxon, who worked on AI training at Anthropic and previously OpenAI, resigned this week. He posted that large AI firms are 'gambling with our lives' by pushing towards systems they may not be able to control. Coxon says both companies know the risks but feel locked in a race to develop powerful AI anyway. He called for drastic steps like a pause on new model improvements.
OpenAI says AI cracked landmark math problem, faces credit dispute
OpenAI claims its AI has solved a 200-year-old fluid dynamics equation, one of the Clay Millennium math prize problems. The announcement is under fire: NYU mathematician Tristan Buckmaster says OpenAI rushed their work after learning of his progress and tried to sideline other contributors. OpenAI denies accessing rivals’ data, but both sides accuse the other of trying to shape credit. The company spent millions on computing to finish the proof.
