Introducing Grok Bot, now in early beta.

Bots are AI teammates that do real work for you. They sign in to your tools, use them just like you do, and come back with finished work.

OMG Grandma, your knees don't have to hurt anymore and I don't have to worry about you falling! @grok ! Grandma needs one of these right now. How do i get one?

Researchers at the University of Tokyo developed Lunavity, a drone backpack designed to help people jump higher.

Its rotors provide upward thrust, allowing users to jump two to three times higher than normal.

It also helps them float down slowly, creating a feeling of reduced gravity.

@theoc____ @SpaceXAI Very cool! Congrats!

@jayair here consume this...it came from OpenAI or Anthropic.

I’m incredibly proud & excited to finally share what we’ve been building for the past 3 years…

https://t.co/rwNzbHYUiy is now live 🚀

In a world of conflicting health advice, how can anyone distinguish between what’s supported by science and what’s just opinion?

I wanted to build something new. A place where scientists, engineers, industry leaders, and the public come together, where people can understand what the science actually says, and where we move healthcare beyond treating sickness toward extending healthy lifespan well beyond what’s currently possible.

Explore the new Lifespan Magazine. Watch the Lifespan show. Ask scientists questions. Join a global community. And help support research and the next generation of scientists working to extend healthy human lifespan.

I believe we’re at the beginning of a revolution in our understanding of human aging, and perhaps one day, our ability to change it. I want everyone to be part of it.

Built by scientists. Built for you. https://t.co/rwNzbHYUiy

Life’s too short. Let’s change that, together! 👊

[Dwarkesh Patel @dwarkesh_sp]

OpenAI HR told Leopold that a major reason for his firing was the memo he'd sent the board warning how broken OAI's security was.

What happened next makes me even prouder to call him a friend.

People may have forgotten, but up until 2024, OpenAI had this secret non-disparagement clause in their off-boarding agreement. If you didn’t sign it, they'd clawback all your equity.

As far as I'm aware, there were only two people ever who didn’t sign it - @DKokotajlo, and Leopold Aschenbrenner.

Of all the researchers who left OpenAI before 2024, who had far more to fall back on, Leopold, all of 22 years old, was one of the only ones willing to refuse the golden handcuffs, and say, "I want to preserve my right to talk about safety and security at OAI.”

We have a lot of disagreements, but he's among the most principled and resilient people I know.

🚨 BREAKING: Apple filed for a PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION against OpenAI AND asked a federal judge to put them under forensic supervision

"Apple respectfully moves the Court for a preliminary injunction to stop THE THEFT OF ITS TRADE SECRETS"

Apple filed NINE sworn declarations, a 28-page memorandum and a concurrent motion for expedited discovery

What Apple now says, under oath:

Chang Liu: 8 years at Apple, now OpenAI "Member of Technical Staff" exploited an authentication bug to steal Apple trade secrets "on AT LEAST FIVE SEPARATE OCCASIONS" from February to April 2026, WHILE working for OpenAI

Liu downloaded "THOUSANDS OF PAGES of Apple's most sensitive trade secrets"

The stolen files, NAMED:
>DisplayNotes.key — "several hundred pages" on Apple's custom display power development program
>Architecture analyses. Fabrication decisions. Testing results
>Engineering data for an UNANNOUNCED Apple product: 'touch, display, and power systems"
>Final.key + V2.key — compilations of two undisclosed Apple R&D projects
>and those are "only four of the dozens of proprietary documents Mr. Liu stole"

Liu fed OpenAI "a steady stream of Apple proprietary information that he actively concealed"

Liu also "coached Yu-Ting "Alyssa" Peng, then still INSIDE Apple, how to access and copy files from Apple workstations "to avoid trouble with the security team" and directed her to communicate with him on the encrypted LINE app "to avoid detection"

Tang Yew Tan: 24-year Apple VP, now OpenAI's Chief Hardware Officer, "used an Apple internal project codename for an unannounced product to elicit still more trade secrets from job candidates."

Tan's own messages, quoted in the motion:
>"Just like last time, bring some parts you worked on" >"mlb, battery, shields type of stuff is interesting"

OpenAI recruiter, quoted: "No, you won't sign anything at the exit interview. If they do ask you to sign anything, let me know asap."

APPLE TOLD FEDERAL JUDGE:
>"OpenAI knows its misappropriation is wrong and has tried to conceal it."
>"This is not a case of 'mere hiring'... it is a case of repeated instances of deliberate theft."

Apple says OpenAI went after its SUPPLIERS:
>OpenAI "directed a trusted Apple partner [name redacted] to perform [Apple's proprietary metal finishing] process for them, knowing it was proprietary to Apple... because they were involved in this partnership while at Apple."

Apple put its own Surface Finishing Manager, Jackie Hughes, under oath to prove it.

Apple named ELEVEN MORE former Apple employees at OpenAI — beyond Liu, Tan, and Peng — Fourteen people total.

Apple also filed a concurrent motion for EXPEDITED DISCOVERY demanding depositions:
- Liu. Tan. Peng.
- A fourth unnamed OpenAI employee
- Plus OpenAI itself, under oath, through Rule 30(b)(6)

Apple has asked a federal judge to put OpenAI under forensic supervision RIGHT NOW:

>Forensic inspection of ALL OpenAI devices
>ALL cloud storage, Slack, email
>Including anything that "previously contained" Apple data — deleted included

Demanding the "first available hearing date," citing "imminent threat" to its trade secrets.

APPLE:
> "The harm is happening now — every day that passes without an injunction allows OpenAI to embed their knowledge of Apple's stolen information into its hardware development efforts."

Hearing: October 1, 2026. Judge Edward J. Davila.

ITS HAPPENING

@YIMBYLAND @americanhousing Cool!

@grok this is now the cycle of human life? Once thriving groups become docile and complacent while struggling groups that may have never thrived become even more highly fertile and spread like a large nest of parasites seeking hosts?

[prac @jjfreethinker]

@grok this seems engineered. Explain how or why this is occurring without a specific evil mastermind manipulating humanity to its own demise.
