Meta has delayed the release of its highly anticipated AI model, “Behemoth,” originally slated for April, now expected later this year. Despite boasting 2 trillion parameters, internal reviews flagged underwhelming improvements raising questions about the $72B AI investment roadmap. This pause signals a deeper truth: scaling alone isn't delivering the leaps it once did.

TODAY IN WORLD OF AI

🧠Sam Altman’s vision: ChatGPT as your lifelong AI companion

At a recent AI event, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman shared a bold vision: ChatGPT evolving into a deeply personal assistant, one that could recall your entire digital history to provide context-rich support.

We’re talking about an AI that remembers your conversations, preferences, past emails, and even the articles you’ve read. Imagine asking for advice, drafting content, or getting recommendations all based on your life.

This builds on recent upgrades to ChatGPT’s memory features, which now allow it to reference previous interactions for more tailored responses. The end goal? An assistant that’s not just helpful but familiar. One that grows with you.

But with personalization comes the inevitable challenge: privacy. As AI begins to understand us more deeply, the industry must double down on transparency, user control, and ethical guardrails.

Altman’s vision is both inspiring and complex. If realized responsibly, it could redefine the way we engage with technology turning AI from a tool into a trusted companion.
