I’ve got 17 teams down on my camp tour, and I’ll see five more this week. So we’re rolling along, and have a full set of MMQB takeaways from my quick break from (not work but) the road … Sam Darnold at 28 years old, with the Seahawks, is a pretty interesting story. He was 20 when he was drafted …

Amid the cutthroat war for AI talent, tech giants are offering astronomical sums to lure a tiny pool of top engineers from rivals. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman expects the market for these geniuses to remain intense, but estimated there are “many thousands of people” capable of making key discoveries in superintelligence who could conceivably be found. The amounts of money …

Some ChatGPT users were so attached to the chatbot’s “yes man” style that they asked OpenAI to bring it back, Sam Altman has said. The OpenAI CEO said there was a “heartbreaking” reason — because some users said they had never had anyone support them before. “Here is the heartbreaking thing. I think it is great that ChatGPT is less …

The Commanders are playing only one starter in Friday night’s preseason opener against New England. His name is not Jayden Daniels.

Sam Altman says OpenAI has yet to crack AGI. The OpenAI CEO said that while the highly anticipated GPT-5, which launched Thursday, is a major advancement, it isn’t what he considers artificial general intelligence, a still theoretical threshold where AI can reason like humans.

“Fuckin’ hot!” are the first words out of Sam Nivola’s mouth when I meet him in the back of a small Japanese restaurant. I’ve just asked him “How are you?” and it’s a fair response, considering it’s the hottest day in New York City since 2012.
