Only 1 programmer in the world could beat OpenAI’s AI

Imagine a world where artificial intelligence competes with the best programmers on the planet. Such a confrontation took place at the prestigious AtCoder World Tour Finals tournament. This is one of the most elite programming competitions in the world, where it’s extremely difficult to get in.

Particularly noteworthy is the Heuristic Division, where problems are solved using heuristic and optimization methods. Here you can’t just solve a problem. You need to do it better than other participants, similar to competitions on the Kaggle platform.

This year the tournament was sponsored by OpenAI company, which received permission to field its AI model to compete on equal terms with humans. The result was disturbing. Only 1 person in the entire world could surpass the OpenAI model.

This person was Polish programmer Przemysław Dębiak, performing under the nickname Psyho. He’s quite well-known in the programming community. Most interesting is that Przemysław claims he didn’t use any AI tools when preparing his solution. But programmed in the regular VSCode environment.

After the competition, the winner wrote, I quote: “Humanity prevailed, for now! I’m completely exhausted. It seemed to me that I slept only 10 hours in the last 3 days, and I’m barely alive”.

UBTech will send Walker S2 robots to serve on China's border for $37 million

Chinese company UBTech won a contract for $37 million. And will send humanoid robots Walker S2 to serve on China's border with Vietnam. South China Morning Post reports that the robots will interact with tourists and staff, perform logistics operations, inspect cargo and patrol the area. And characteristically — they can independently change their battery.

Anthropic accidentally revealed an internal document about Claude's "soul"

Anthropic accidentally revealed the "soul" of artificial intelligence to a user. And this is not a metaphor. This is a quite specific internal document.

Jensen Huang ordered Nvidia employees to use AI everywhere

Jensen Huang announced total mobilization under the banner of artificial intelligence inside Nvidia. And this is no longer a recommendation. This is a requirement.

AI chatbots generate content that exacerbates eating disorders

A joint study by Stanford University and the Center for Democracy and Technology showed a disturbing picture. Chatbots with artificial intelligence pose a serious risk to people with eating disorders. Scientists warn that neural networks hand out harmful advice about diets. They suggest ways to hide the disorder and generate "inspiring weight loss content" that worsens the problem.

OpenAGI released the Lux model that overtakes Google and OpenAI

Startup OpenAGI released the Lux model for computer control and claims this is a breakthrough. According to benchmarks, the model overtakes analogues from Google, OpenAI and Anthropic by a whole generation. Moreover, it works faster. About 1 second per step instead of 3 seconds for competitors. And 10 times cheaper in cost per processing 1 token.
