Deep Seeking Deep Research – DTNS Live 4948

The initials DTNS in a multicolored 1980s style with the word LIVE underneath in white on a black background. OpenAI’s announced Deep Research, an agentic ChatGPT tool, that lets users ask the chatbot to perform “multi-step research on the internet for complex tasks”. AI companies like Anthropic would like job applicants NOT to use AI on their submission. Fitness+ adds hours of Kendrick Lamar themed workouts to celebrate Super Bowl LIX. And where are all the new GPUs that Nvidia launched?
