Bible Verses of the Day

13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life. 14 And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him. [1 John 5:13-15 ESV]

OpenAI is reportedly pushing ahead with plans to become a for-profit company, after more senior figures left the ChatGPT developer following the surprise exit of its chief technology officer, Mira Murati.

The San Francisco-based startup is preparing to change its corporate structure as it seeks $6.5bn (£4.9bn) in new funding, according to reports.

Under the changes, OpenAI will become a for-profit benefit corporation – an entity that makes profits but is committed to the social and public good – that will no longer be controlled by its nonprofit board, Reuters reported.

U.S. Senator Ben Cardin was reportedly targeted by a “deepfake” caller, who posed as a top Ukrainian official. A notice revealed that an individual had been impersonating the recently former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba.

During the call, the impersonator asked “politically charged questions in relation to the upcoming election.” The Democratic representative from Maryland issued a statement on Wednesday (Sept. 25) following the incident, saying: “In recent days, a malign actor engaged in a deceptive attempt to have a conversation with me by posing as a known individual. After immediately becoming clear that the individual I was engaging with was not who they claimed to be, I ended the call and my office took swift action, alerting the relevant authorities.”
