Elon Musk sat down, and Greg Brockman is here. I don’t see Sam Altman. The jurors will be seated shortly.

The platform, built on the decentralized Nostr protocol and launched initially last year, “preserves archived videos from the Internet Archive” (it says it has “restored access” to about 500,000 Vines) and lets users post new ones. Despite today’s launch on app stores, it’s currently invite-only, according to a blog post.

That’s the finding of a new study from researchers at the University of Oxford, published in Nature today. The researchers found AI chatbots trained to be warmer were significantly more likely to make factual errors and agree with false beliefs than the originals. Cold models didn’t experience the same drop in accuracy.

In November 2015, Sam Altman suggested something Turing-related as the name of the company that would become OpenAI, referencing the famous mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing. Musk responded, “Something Turing-related that doesn’t sound too ominous might be good. Want to avoid the Turing Test association though, as that sounds too much like we are replacing humans.”

For the first time, the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles approved new regulations allowing for the testing and deployment of heavy-duty autonomous trucks. The agency also expanded its current rules to allow law enforcement to cite operators for moving violations involving their autonomous vehicles. AV companies are also now required to respond to first responder calls within 30 seconds, and to allow officials to clear AVs from emergency zones.

The new feature uses AI to generate a preview of your day, a to-do list, and daily highlights. You’ll also find a list of your upcoming calls on the Today page, which will roll out in beta starting next month.
