💰 OpenAI Is Now Worth $500 Billion OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, has become the world's most valuable private corporation, beating Elon Musk's SpaceX by $100 billion. A consortium of investors, including Thrive Capital, SoftBank, and Abu Dhabi state-backed MGX, purchased $6,6 billion worth of shares from current and former OpenAI employees. As a result, the company's valuation increased by 1.5x to $500 billion, from $300 billion in March after the last round. According to rumors, only employees who had held their shares for at least 2 years may sell. The transaction was smaller than the approved $10 billion limit, indicating that many OpenAI employees remain optimistic about the company's future and are hesitant to sell their shares. The initiative also helps OpenAI retain talent by providing staff with liquidity without jumping ship, even when competitors make generous offers.

YouTuber Daniel Rotar was 48 hours into his travels when his smart ring's battery began to swell, becoming too tight to remove. The pressure caused his finger to swell as well. Rotar was at the airport waiting to board when the problem occurred. He and the airline staff attempted to remove it with soap and water, but this only caused the battery to swell further.

🥴 Chimpanzees' Fruit Diet Reveals Evolutionary Roots of Alcohol Consumption A new study reveals that wild chimpanzees regularly consume naturally occurring ethanol by eating ripe tropical fruits in Africa. Researchers found that the fruit pulp making up the bulk of chimpanzee diets contains about 0.3% ethanol by weight, with each animal ingesting the equivalent of around 14 grams of ethanol per day—roughly matching 1.4 standard alcoholic drinks by international standards. The findings add scientific support to the idea that human attraction to alcohol may trace back to evolutionary roots. Scientists note that regular ethanol intake through fruit was likely everyday for ancestral primates, suggesting our affinity for alcohol could be a biological legacy rather than a cultural accident.

The 200-foot-wide space rock currently has a 4.3% chance of lunar impact. While those odds remain relatively low, the potential consequences have prompted serious consideration of nuclear disruption as the most viable intervention strategy. Read More
