Nothing CEO Carl Pei has newly explained why his company rejects the AI wearables trend (pendants, pins, glasses) and called the search for the "iPhone of AI" a dead end. The upcoming screenless AI-native device is slated for release in December 2026, with details remaining unknown.
New: Nothing explicitly rejects the wearable trend (pendant, pin, glasses, companion), unlike the rest of the industry; Carl Pei expresses a different view of the AI future: 'I read this moment differently'; the new article confirms the productivity-oriented nature of the device with a screenless design
OpenAI is expanding Images 2.6 with animated GIF generation in ChatGPT and Codex, and has released the GPT-Image-2.6 Flare and Sunburst API models featuring SVG generation and markup-guided editing. The company reports more than 4 billion images generated weekly.

The British government cited an estimate of £400 billion in AI benefit by 2030 for almost two years, originating from a 2023 report commissioned by Google. The minister has now published the government's own estimate: £120 billion (range £55-140 billion).
The Conversation analysis shows how AI-generated content and deepfakes are calling into question the evidentiary value of video and photography — using the example of the Tesla Roadster and Musk, the author shows why the physical presence of witnesses and demonstrable origin of content are becoming increasingly important.
AI Radar monitors Czech and international sources every day, looking for changes that truly deserve attention.
The result is a quick overview of what has actually changed in the AI world, rather than another stream of articles.
Use the CS/EN switch to read the same Radar in Czech or English. English content is published after its translation has been checked, so new and older items may appear later.
Each row represents one event — not one article. At a glance, you can see its significance, credibility and main point.
Illustrative example, not a current news item.
Agent mode is available to all paying users
Until now, the mode was available only on the highest plan; it is now available on all paid tiers without a waitlist.
The detail page contains a fuller summary, its significance and original sources. Practical impact appears in the detail and the For individuals and For businesses views. An AI Flash item reaches the main selection only after it has been expanded and meets the publication rules.
We first summarize each event in the same way for everyone. Based on those same facts, we then explain what the change means for your own use and what it could mean for how a company operates.
Today’s briefing is the same for everyone. Pages For individuals and For businesses can be found in the main navigation — they select only events relevant to the given use case.
