OpenAI launched Prism, a free AI‑enhanced workspace for anyone with a ChatGPT account. Integrated with GPT‑5.2, Prism functions as a word processor and research assistant, offering LaTeX support, diagram generation, and full‑context chat capabilities. The tool is designed to help human scientists draft papers, verify claims, and explore hypotheses, rather than conduct research autonomously. OpenAI positions Prism as a catalyst for faster scientific progress, drawing parallels to AI’s impact on software engineering. Early examples include AI‑assisted proofs in mathematics and statistics, showcasing a collaborative model between researchers and advanced language models. Leer más →

OpenAI’s 2026 strategy, outlined by CFO Sarah Friar, centers on practical AI adoption across health, science, and enterprise. The company is investing heavily in infrastructure—about $1.4 trillion in commitments as of November—and aims to close the gap between AI capabilities and real‑world use. User metrics are at all‑time highs, driven by a flywheel of compute, research, products, and monetization. New initiatives include advertising, the worldwide ChatGPT Go subscription, and emerging business models such as licensing, IP agreements, and outcome‑based pricing. OpenAI also hints at hardware devices developed with designer Jony Ive. Leer más →

Google DeepMind will open its first AI‑driven research facility in the United Kingdom, partnering with the British government to accelerate scientific breakthroughs. The lab will give British scientists priority access to DeepMind tools and focus on creating new superconductor and semiconductor materials, with downstream benefits for medical imaging, chip efficiency, clean energy and transport. The partnership also ties into a broader £5 billion plan to modernize outdated government IT, freeing civil servants from repetitive tasks and supporting education. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Technology Secretary Liz Kendall hailed the deal as a catalyst for national renewal and global AI leadership. Leer más →

The Trump administration issued an executive order establishing the Genesis Mission, a federal AI platform to be run by the Department of Energy under the oversight of the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology. The plan seeks to leverage the nation’s largest collection of scientific datasets to train foundation models and AI agents that can accelerate research in fields such as advanced manufacturing, biotechnology, critical materials, nuclear energy, quantum information science, and semiconductors. Critics note the order’s focus on strategic advantage and the lack of explicit references to public health or climate challenges. Leer más →

President Donald Trump has issued an executive order establishing the Genesis Mission, an initiative led by the Department of Energy to create a centralized artificial‑intelligence platform. The platform will aggregate decades‑long federal, academic, and private‑sector data sets for training scientific foundation models, automating research workflows, and accelerating breakthroughs. It will link the nation’s most advanced supercomputers, AI systems, quantum resources, and scientific instruments, including two sovereign AI supercomputers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory built by Hewlett Packard Enterprises and powered by AMD chips. Under Secretary for Science Darío Gil directs the effort, which must identify initial data assets within four months and demonstrate operating capability for at least one national challenge within nine months, focusing on nuclear and fusion energy, grid modernization, and advanced AI for national‑security applications.
