AI labs buy data from dead startups to train models

Two r/OpenAI threads question OpenAI's position on an Artificial Analysis-style price-vs-intelligence Pareto chart, asking whether the Intelligence Index is biased or OpenAI's tokens are more heavily subsidized than Anthropic's. One poster also floats a "secret product strategy" behind Claude Code.

In an early-September interview with Hannah Fry, the Google DeepMind chief argued data centers' effect on physical surroundings deserves serious consideration and that the facilities should be beautiful.

TikToker @ericisresearching documented AI tools being used to race-swap people in footage of real incidents, producing racist viral videos. The Reddit r/Singularity post surfaces the practice without naming the tools or platforms involved.

Satirical benchmark pits GPT-6 Astra, Claude Opus 5.5, Gemini 4 Argon, DeepSeek-V4-Pro and Grok 4.7 against 4,000 deliberately stupid prompts. It asks whether models stay stable when a very wrong person insists they are right, rather than whether a clever adversary can jailbreak them.

A r/LocalLLaMA post satirizes claims that AI has solved coding, noting the boast only holds for x86 Linux binaries that print and exit. It links to a Yahoo Finance piece on Elon Musk calling coding a top job.
