PLUS: A dataset of 170 "awesome ChatGPT prompts"
Welcome, humans.
We were scrolling Hugging Face yesterday, and found this trending dataset of āawesome ChatGPT prompts.ā So you know it got our attention:
Want GPT to act like a lunatic? There's a prompt for that. Someone actually created a prompt that makes ChatGPT spout completely meaningless, arbitrary sentences.
And that's not even the strangest oneāthere are also prompts to make it act like a tea-taster (complete with fancy flavor profiles), a fallacy finder that calls out logical errors, and even a fancy title generator for when you need to jazz up your boring old project names.
Many are actually useful too. A particularly clever prompt turns GPT into a text-based Excel sheetāperfect for quick data crunching without ever opening up a spreadsheet.
Hereās what you need to know about AI today:
GPT-5 āOrionā rumors point to December launch, OpenAI denies.
Waymo raised $5.6B for expansion.
Google released an endless AI video game.
AI only needs 200-600 samples to copy an artistās style.
GPT-5, or Orion, or something else is coming out in December.
Thatās right folks, the successor to GPT-4, whether it will actually be called GPT-5 or not, is rumored to be released in early December.
Letās review the facts on the ground:
OpenAIās next frontier model is codenamed Orion.
Orion is supposedly 100x more powerful than GPT-4, and is being trained on synthetic data from o1.
Orion will first be released to partner companies; for example, rumors are that Microsoft will get access to Orion as soon as November.
Hereās the thing thoughāOpenAI says itās NOT āreleasing a model code-named Orion this year.ā Sam called the report āfake news.ā But if this news is so fake, why did Sam post this cryptic tweet a little over a month ago?
Now hereās the REAL question: with the success of o1, do we really need GPT-5 right now? Donāt get us wrong, GPT-5 would be amazing to have.
I guess the real test will be, what can GPT-5 / Orion accomplish that current AI models canāt? By that we mean, can it:
Reduce hallucinations to >0.01%?
Maintain its memory for longer, and solve the lost in the middle problem?
ACTUALLY reason?
If so, then itāll definitely be worth it.

This is the Biggest Breakthrough in Next-Gen Tech Since iPhoneābut you only have until October 30th to invest.
Fun fact: Did you know Disney's princess IP alone has generated $46.4B in revenue!? Wild.
Hereās another fun fact: a next-gen tech company called Elf Labs has won 100+ trademark battles for characters like Cinderella, Little Mermaid, and Snow Whiteāyes, reallyāand has advanced proprietary tech to bring them to life in your living room through next-gen AR (without clunky headsets).
With their unprecedented compression and patented tech, theyāre creating hyper-realistic, AI powered 3D worlds with beloved, billion-dollar characters.
Now get thisāElf Labs has opened up an investment opportunity to the public. The team has already done $6B+ in licensing deals in their careers, and they're launching three new franchises in 2025.
Time is running out, though: With less than a week left to invest in Elf Labs, the opportunity to become a part of this game-changing movement ends on October 30.

Sunday Special.
There were actually quite a few models dropped this week that we didnāt cover, so we thought it would be nice to do a round-up of them:
Janus 1.3B from Deepseek handles image and text tasks better by separating the image understanding and creation processes under one system (code).
Thereās also DeepSeek v2.5, which combines both strong coding and general writing abilities into a single open source model; allegedly, itās as good as GPT-4 and as cheap as GPT 4-miniāyou can chat with it here.
Aya Expanse from Cohere translates your content into 23 languages while matching each language's natural tone and style.
OmniParser from Microsoft helps your agents better understand and interact with user interfaces by converting screenshots into detailed descriptions of what can be clicked and what each button does (code, read more).
Llama-3.1-Nemotron improves Meta's language model with NVIDIA's custom training to deliver more helpful and factually accurate responses.
