The ex-Apple designer, now working on AI hardware for OpenAI, just joined the British Museum's board of trustees. The London museum is going through a huge redevelopment, ominously dubbed 'The Masterplan,' and it sounds like Ive will give guidance on how tech could be a part of that. No word yet on who he thinks should have the Parthenon sculptures.

India's equity benchmarks to open flat as market weighs UK trade pact
(Reuters) -India's equity benchmarks are expected to open little changed on Friday as investors weigh the newly signed trade pact with Britain, which will cut tariffs of goods ranging from textiles to whisky and cars. The Gift Nifty futures were trading at 24,993.5 points as of 8:04 a.m. IST, indicating that the Nifty 50 will open near Thursday's close of 25,062.1. "Signing of the India-UK FTA, which is expected to boost bilateral trade by about $34 billion annually, is hugely significant in the present context when India is eager to reach a deal with the U.S. on trade and tariffs," said VK Vijayakumar, chief investment strategist at Geojit Investments. Shares of textiles, automakers, leather, footwear and other companies will be in focus as UK exports become duty-free. While the India-UK agreement should boost sentiment, the market is unlikely to see major upside until there is clarity on U.S. trade negotiations, analysts said. India is making "fantastic" progress in talks with Washington, Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal told Reuters on Thursday, but played down the importance of deadlines. Earlier this week, two Indian government sources said prospects for an interim deal before U.S. President Donald Trump's August 1 deadline had dimmed amid deadlock over tariff cuts on key agricultural and dairy products.

OpenAI prepares August launch for GPT-5, The Verge reports
-- OpenAI is preparing to release its highly anticipated GPT-5 model as early as August, according to The Verge, citing sources familiar with the company's plans, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of generative AI. Internal testing and previously scheduled infrastructure upgrades fueled speculation earlier this year, with Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) engineers said to be provisioning server capacity for a potential late-May launch. While delays have pushed the timeline slightly, OpenAI appears to be in the final stages of readying its most sophisticated model yet. GPT-5 has already surfaced behind the scenes, sharpening expectations around not only performance but also broader strategic implications for OpenAI's platform and API ecosystem. CEO Sam Altman confirmed the model's impending debut in a post on X and offered a firsthand account of its capabilities during a podcast appearance with Theo Von. Speaking about a question he had trouble answering, 'I put it in the model, this is GPT-5, and it answered it perfectly,' Altman said, describing the moment as leaving him feeling 'useless relative to the AI.' OpenAI plans to introduce mini and nano variants of GPT-5 alongside the core model, signaling a multi-tiered approach for developers and enterprises. These variants are designed to provide flexible options via API access, likely targeting a wide spectrum of applications across both consumer and commercial contexts. Unlike previous iteration rollouts such as GPT-4o and o3, GPT-5 has been hinted to unify OpenAI's leading capabilities, including multimodal comprehension, memory, and advanced reasoning, into a single model. Altman previously referred to it as 'a system that integrates a lot of our technology,' a framing that aligns with earlier comments about simplifying the user experience through fewer, more powerful versions. As the launch nears, investor and developer focus is shifting to how GPT-5 could streamline fragmented AI experiences and redefine expectations for general-purpose AI systems. With competition rising across the space, from Google's (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Gemini to Anthropic's Claude, GPT-5 is set to be OpenAI's bid to maintain its edge in the rapidly developing AI landscape.
