    It looks like 3D movies are coming to the Apple TV app.

    Not your TV, though.

    A beta version of the app shows support for 3D playback on the Vision Pro. Early titles including Jurassic World Dominion and The Boss Baby: Family Business.

    The newest band merch is a custom font.

    Wilco have debuted “Loft Sans,” a new typeface for the band — and for its fans to license. It’s only $30, which is less than half the price of a Wilco hoodie. Good deal.

    Altman is wrapping up.

    OpenAI just gave away $500 in credits to everyone in the audience. The company clearly wants developers to get moving with its new tools.

    Altman said OpenAI will be holding another developer event next year. “What we launched today is going to look very quaint relative to what we’re busy creating for you now.”

    You’ll be able to make a custom ChatGPT bot.

    They’re called GPTs and are meant to be tailored to specific uses.

    You’ll be able to add custom instructions, knowledge, and actions and can program them by typing what you want them to do.

    We’ve got a full story here:

    Satya Nadella is here.

    The Microsoft CEO says, “We love you guys ... You guys have built something magical.”

    He spent a couple minutes talking about Microsoft’s vision for putting AI everywhere (he said “Copilot” a lot).

    “I’m excited for us to build AGI together,” Altman said.

    GPT-4 Turbo will be cheaper for developers.

    Altman says developers said they’d build a lot more if OpenAI could lower the price. So it’s lowing the price by 3x for input tokens and 2x for output tokens.

    OpenAI will work on speed gains for developers next. It’ll be “a lot faster” soon, he says.

    “We are just as annoyed as all of you —

    probably more — that GPT4’s knowledge ended in 2021. We will try to never let it get that out of date again,” Sam Altman said on stage.

    Good news for ChatGPT users, bad news for anyone scared of how disruptive a current version of this system could be.
