🤖 Microsoft unveils Copilot super app
LINK
|
- Microsoft unveiled its Copilot "super app" on Wednesday, a major redesign that consolidates its scattered Copilot products into one interface for chatting with bots, running Office tasks, coding, and launching autonomous agents through a new "Autopilot" feature.
- Autopilot lets users name an agent, assign it a role and goal, then set it loose on multi-step work like project updates and deadline tracking, while a coding tool sharing GitHub Copilot's stack targets non-engineers building apps and dashboards.
- Copilot runs mainly on Anthropic and OpenAI models plus xAI's Grok, with usage-based billing for Code, Autopilot, and top models atop paid seats, though most features roll out via an early-test program with no general-availability timeline set.

🗣️ Gemini AI can now have a face
LINK
|
- Google shipped Gemini 3.8 Live with selectable avatars that lip-sync to the model's real-time speech, pairing its low-latency video generation with voice so users appear to talk to a visible face rather than hearing audio alone.
- Aimed at enterprise deployments like customer service, receptionists, and training, businesses can pick from a preset avatar library or build custom ones matching company branding, with SynthID watermarking woven into the audio and video to flag AI-generated output.
- The model now handles 97 languages with automatic switching, and the 3.8 Live Extended Thinking variant beat GPT-Live-1 Astra and Grok Voice Think Fast 2.0 across benchmarks while costing less per hour of input audio.

🛡️ OpenAI to preview GPT-6 Cyber within days
LINK
|
- OpenAI will preview GPT-6 Cyber, a cybersecurity-focused model, within days, alongside a new product meant to help customers deploy it more securely and automatically, according to a Fortune report citing sources familiar with the plans.
- The model, OpenAI's fourth cybersecurity release this year, could debut at DevDay in San Francisco on Tuesday, part of a slate of a dozen or more products aimed at combating threats and containing rogue AI agents.
- A limited set of customers in OpenAI's application-only Daybreak Red program already has alpha access to GPT-6 Cyber, though the broader preview remains gated to that invite-only cohort.

🛰️ Google launches AI chips into space
LINK
|
- Google will send four TPUs into low Earth orbit next week aboard SpaceX's Transporter-18 rideshare, marking the first flight test for Project Suncatcher, its research effort to eventually run AI data centers in space.
- Built with Planet Labs, the prototype tests how chips survive the ~10-minute ascent's up-to-10g forces, orbital radiation and bit flips, plus a new heat-pipe-and-radiator cooling system needed because the vacuum of space offers no airflow.
- Prior ground tests exposed Trillium TPUs to a proton beam at UC Davis, where they absorbed more than a five-year mission's radiation dose "remarkably well," with laser-linked satellite clusters not slated for testing until Google's 2027 dual-satellite launch.

⚡ xAI to double Nvidia chips at Colossus 2
LINK
|
- xAI plans to roughly double the Nvidia chip count at its Memphis Colossus 2 data center before 2027, taking the facility past ~1 million GPUs as it chases a long-stated 1-million-GPU target.
- The site currently runs 110,000 GB200 and 440,000 GB300 Blackwell chips, with 220,000 more GB300s activating next week, another 220,000 in November, and a possible final 220,000 in late December.
- Beyond training Grok, xAI now rents Colossus compute to Anthropic and Google, though Musk's post omits whether power and cooling infrastructure can absorb the incoming chips immediately, and the December batch stays contingent on scheduling.

AI can build faster. Can your team decide better?
AI can draft the PRD and prototype the idea. Jira Product Discovery helps teams decide whether it belongs on the roadmap. Bring feedback and ideas together, prioritize as a team, and keep your roadmap connected to delivery in Jira.
