AI Gateway Production Index — July 2026 Every month, AI Gateway routes tens of trillions of tokens between production applications and AI labs, giving us a view of what AI usage actually looks like in today’s enterprise. We publish that view here. See the Production Index reports published in May an

Elon Musk called Sam Altman a "new level" fraud for selling space-based data centers to investors. Altman replied that Musk pitched the same idea.

Sam Altman added Musk's obsession is the best benchmark for GPT-5.6. This shows ongoing tension between the two tech leaders.

Precursor, our new continuous behavioral validation engine for bot management, offers visibility into how humans and bots actually interact across the full user journey. By turning session-level behavior into bot detection signals, it identifies advanced automation with higher precision — while redu

OpenAI replaced ChatGPT's voice mode with new full-duplex models GPT-Live-1 and GPT-Live-1 mini. These models let the assistant speak and listen at the same time, avoiding awkward interruptions and enabling live translation.

The voice model streams complex queries to text models like GPT-5.5 in real time, can pause to absorb context, and shows visual responses. The voice product lead uses it for 30-40 minute walks. Live translation still struggles, with a strong American accent on Hindi demos.

Search is how we find nearly everything on the web — creators, merchants, answers. AI is rewriting the rules, leaving creators caught between staying discoverable in an agentic era and getting paid for their work. Today we're launching two initiatives to help.

OpenAI recruited former Apple employees and asked them for secret Apple data. One ex-iPhone engineer was caught after refusing to return his work laptop, which he used to download confidential Apple files while at OpenAI.

He boasted to former colleagues about retained access and made guides on copying files undetected. This may have been led by Tang Tan, OpenAI's hardware chief and former lead iPhone developer who recruited Apple staff for design documents.

One year after declaring Content Independence Day, a dynamic market for monetized content has officially emerged. In this report, we examine how the rise of autonomous AI agents is upending traditional search referrals and detail the new infrastructure required to support a sustainable web economy.

Apple is still deciding how to build the hinge for its rumored foldable iPhone Ultra. Insider Fixed Focus Digital says the company is choosing between two methods to create a nearly invisible crease.

One option uses liquid metal, an amorphous alloy known as metallic glass, which offers flexibility, scratch resistance, and shape memory. The other is 3D printing, which is cheaper and easier to produce.

Apple’s choice depends on chip supply. Limited memory availability favors the liquid metal hinge for small batches. If memory supply improves, Apple may switch to 3D printing. The final decision is expected by the end of July.

Cloudflare Research is building a global consensus service called Meerkat that uses a new consensus algorithm called QuePaxa. We plan to use Meerkat to build a strongly consistent, fault-tolerant key-value store, and other applications.

Meta’s Muse Image and Muse Video, under Meta Superintelligence lab, combine diffusion and large language models. Muse can write Python code, parse the web, generate fractal code, embed graphs, and create precise HTML layouts like menus.

Muse also self-corrects image flaws using a method like Test-Time-Scaling. It ranks second on image-to-image benchmarks, just ahead of Nano Banana 2 and Reve-2, though Reve-2.1 has since surpassed it. The video model ranks top 3, beating Alibaba’s happyhorse.

Muse sparked controversy by defaulting to generating Instagram user faces from @tags. Access is currently limited to US Instagram, with Europe’s rollout delayed indefinitely.

CodeQL is the static analysis engine behind GitHub code scanning, which finds and remediates security issues in your code. We’ve recently released CodeQL 2.26.0, which adds support for Kotlin 2.4.0,… The post CodeQL 2.26.0 adds Kotlin 2.4.0 support and AI prompt injection detection appea

OpenAI will disable its AI browser Atlas on August 9, less than a year after its October launch on macOS. All browser features will move into the updated ChatGPT desktop app, with users notified by email and in-app messages.

Atlas offered an Agent mode to automate tasks but remained niche, limited to Macs and paid subscribers. The new ChatGPT app combines ChatGPT, Codex, and ChatGPT Work with a built-in browser that can browse sites, compare sources, open Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 files, and continue tasks while showing results.
