OpenAI Develops a ‘Bidirectional’ Audio Model to Boost Voice Assistants

Wow, what a day of news! In case you missed it (which would have been difficult), we broke a number of stories yesterday regarding OpenAI and Anthropic. Most memorable was this piece about the fiery, 1,600-word memo Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei penned to staff last Friday criticizing the OpenAI-Pentagon deal. (You can check out the full memo here for some of the fun phrases Amodei uses.) Though the memo garnered some support for Anthropic on social media, it could hurt Anthropic’s efforts to use the Pentagon.

[Перевод] ИИ, который запретил сам себя: как нейросеть Claude стала тайным оружием Пентагона

Я отдал исследованиям искусственного интеллекта двадцать лет жизни. На моих глазах эта сфера превратилась из забавной академической игрушки в несущую конструкцию современного мира.

В начале 2025 года компания MinIO в лице сооснователя Harshavardhana начала поэтапно сворачивать свою версию Community Edition. В феврале из open-source версии был вырезан веб-интерфейс администрирования - управление политиками, мониторинг, репликация, IAM - всё это переехало в коммерческий продукт AIStor с ценником от $96 000 в год.
