One Big Story: OpenAI Disbands AGI Readiness Team, Uh Oh?
OpenAI is dissolving its AGI Readiness team in a move that raises eyebrows across the AI industry. Miles Brundage, the team's leader, dropped a bombshell in his departure announcement: "Neither OpenAI nor any other frontier lab is ready, and the world is also not ready." That's... concerning.
Key Points:
The AGI Readiness team was responsible for evaluating OpenAI's ability to handle increasingly powerful AI
This follows other significant departures, including their CTO and research chief
Brundage plans to continue his work independently, focusing on AI policy research
OpenAI recently raised funding at a $157B valuation (while expecting $5B in losses this year 👀)
My Take: Look, I've been in the AI space long enough to know when something feels off, and this feels off. When the person in charge of ensuring you're ready for AGI says you're unprepared, that's a red flag. But here's what fascinates me: OpenAI is simultaneously pushing full steam ahead with development while dismantling teams focused on safety and readiness. As someone who uses AI daily to run global marketing operations, I can tell you – this technology is incredibly powerful, and we need guardrails. This move seems to prioritize speed over safety, and while I'm all for innovation (trust me, I live and breathe it), we need to be smart about advancing. The stakes are too high to get this wrong.

Latest News
My take: I don’t use Gemini often, but I respect Google’s ability to ship AI products. I expect this to be a big one.
My take: This sounds like a salacious headline, but this is true for every industry on Earth. Tens of thousands of AI apps have popped up over the last few years, and sadly, most will not make it.
My take: I just learned that Chipotle’s headquarters is where I live, which is interesting! How long until every company is using AI to hire? Will it lead to better or worse results?
My take: The era of robot security has arrived, and I am here for it! This could literally be a scene from a Robocop movie.

Today’s Tip: AI Can Organize Your To-Do List and Your Life
Tasks can pile up quickly, and it's easy to feel overwhelmed when you have so many things to do and not enough time to do them. Imagine if you could take all those tasks and, with a bit of guidance, transform them into an organized, achievable action plan. That’s why I put together this mega prompt—to help you take control of your workload and get the most out of your day. By providing specific details, this prompt ensures you receive a thoughtful, well-structured response that organizes your tasks and makes your goals more manageable and your path forward clearer.
Remember: the more detailed you are when filling in placeholders, the better the output. I recommend using ChatGPT or Claude for this.
Here is the prompt structure for you:
I need help with [specific tasks or goals]. Please assist me in [specific way] to achieve [desired outcome].
Details to Include
To provide the best output, here are the details you need:
Task Details: A list of what needs to be done, such as:
Task 1: [Provide a brief description of the task]
Task 2: [Provide a brief description of the task]
Task 3: [Provide a brief description of the task]
Priority Level: Specify the importance level of each task:
Task 1 Priority: [High, Medium, Low]
Task 2 Priority: [High, Medium, Low]
Task 3 Priority: [High, Medium, Low]
Deadlines/Timeframes: List any relevant deadlines:
Task 1 Deadline: [Date or timeframe]
Task 2 Deadline: [Date or timeframe]
Task 3 Deadline: [Date or timeframe]
Additional Context: Provide any extra information that might affect how the output is generated. For example:
Specific constraints (e.g., only available for 2 hours per day)
Preferences (e.g., want to focus on creative tasks in the morning)
Details about what defines 'success' for you
Desired Format of Output
Organized To-Do List: Arrange tasks by priority and timeline.
Timeline Suggestion: Recommend a schedule, including which tasks to tackle first and estimated completion times.
Actionable Insights: Offer any tips to make completing these tasks more efficient or effective.Sample Mega Prompt
"I need help organizing my tasks to complete all of them efficiently. Here are my tasks:
Write the marketing plan for my new project (High Priority, Deadline: Next Monday).
Finish reading a book on leadership (Low Priority, Deadline: End of the month).
Prepare presentation slides for a client pitch (Medium Priority, Deadline: This Friday).
Update website content for a product launch (High Priority, Deadline: This Thursday).
I'm available for work on weekdays from 9 AM to 6 PM. I tend to be more focused in the mornings, so I'd prefer to do complex work then. Please help me put these tasks into a timeline, suggesting which ones to focus on each day, and provide any insights on how to stay motivated.
Additional Notes for Amazing Outputs
Be specific about your priorities, deadlines, and time availability.
If you have a particular work style (e.g., better at creative work in the mornings), share that.
Mention any obstacles (e.g., limited hours, lack of motivation) so ChatGPT can offer advice to overcome them.

🤔 Which image is real?
One of these images is real, and one was created with AI. Vote for which one you think is real, and tell us why you voted that way. My only goal is to choose such good photos that the majority of votes are wrong.
Which image is the real one? |
Last edition’s results (53% were correct):
Did you vote in the poll from the 24th? This was another tough one, and the bottom image is real. Finally, the Bagel Bots readers have won a round! Go back and see the photos here.
With each passing week, I’m finding that AI images are becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish from reality. Where will the technology be in six months?
