The big one
GPT-5: Not Quite AGI, But Still A Beast

OpenAI just dropped GPT-5, and the hype train roared straight into AGI territory. In a live-streamed event that felt ripped from an Apple keynote, Sam Altman strode onstage, threw real-time coding challenges and puzzles at GPT-5 under spotlights, and even took audience Q&A. “This feels like talking to a PhD-level expert,” he quipped, as the hype engines revved up proclaiming AGI’s arrival.

In reality, GPT-5 is a massive leap in speed, accuracy, and flexibility, with a huge focus on AI coding assistance, but it remains a static snapshot trained through April 2025, not a self-evolving mind. I'm sorry to those of you who want your own WALL-E or Baymax, but AGI isn't here yet.

Here is everything you need to know, from the model lineup and ChatGPT’s six headline upgrades to vibe coding magic, benchmark records, and more...

Skip the Hoard

Patio connects you with neighbors to borrow and rent tools you need. Browse gear, list your own, dive into bite-size DIY courses and quizzes, discover tutorials with smart search, buy or sell parts, and link up with local makerspaces.

🔥 Our Take: Every DIY fan secretly drowns in dusty drills and half-finished projects. Patio turns tool hoarding into community fuel. When your saw collects cobwebs, just tap your neighbor’s instead of buying another. 

Never Lose Your Spot

Scrollmark saves your place on any webpage. Click the icon, close the tab, and come back later, your cursor lands exactly where you left off. No manual scrolling, no frantic eyeball scans.

🔥 Our Take: Reopening a tab only to hunt your spot is a cruel and unusual punishment. Scrollmark is a homing pigeon for your eyeballs. It won’t cure your terrible attention span, but it makes bailing out of an article less soul crushing.

Pocket Arcade

DreamCore turns text prompts into playable mobile games in fifteen seconds. It builds physics puzzles, platformers or roguelike segments on demand. Remix community levels or share your own with a simple link. No installs, no code, pure pocket arcade.

🔥 Our Take: Doomscrolling is so last decade. Now you type a prompt, hit play and dive into a fresh level before your thumb even cools down. You’ll run into bizarre glitches sometimes, but those curveballs are the best part.
