OpenAI Launches GPT-5.1 with Personality Presets After GPT-5 Disappoints Users

OpenAI is rolling out GPT-5.1, promising a "warmer" and more personalized ChatGPT experience after GPT-5's disappointing launch that left users underwhelmed and forced the company to bring back GPT-4o.

Details:

  • The update introduces two models - GPT-5.1 Instant and GPT-5.1 Thinking - that automatically match queries to the best-suited version, with the former being more intelligent and instruction-following, while the latter handles simple tasks quicker

  • Users can toggle between eight personality presets including Default, Professional, Friendly, Candid, Quirky, Efficient, Nerdy, and Cynical, with custom style tuning rolling out to select users this week

  • The announcement comes as Microsoft increasingly explores Anthropic's rival models for Copilot features while OpenAI simultaneously launched ChatGPT Atlas browser with agent capabilities

OpenAI, facing GPT-5’s underwhelming gains and rising competition, is banking on personality customization and warmer conversations to set ChatGPT apart beyond raw performance.

Anthropic Commits $50 Billion to Custom AI Data Centers Across US

Anthropic has unveiled a major $50B partnership with UK neocloud provider Fluidstack to build a network of custom data centers across the US, signaling its first serious shift from rented cloud capacity toward fully owning its AI infrastructure.

Details:

  • The data centers will launch in Texas and New York in 2026, engineered specifically for Claude. CEO Dario Amodei says the buildout is essential for AI that can drive scientific breakthroughs, aligning with Anthropic’s projection of reaching $70B

  • Even with a $50B price tag, the plan remains small compared to Meta’s $600B infrastructure push and the $500B OpenAI–SoftBank–Oracle Stargate effort — clear signs of an escalating AI arms race

  • The deal is a major win for Fluidstack, founded in 2017 and emerging as a key AI infrastructure partner for Meta, Mistral, an $11B French government initiative, and Google through early TPU availability

This move signals Anthropic's confidence in its growth trajectory and highlights the critical importance of custom infrastructure in the race to develop AI systems.

How to Turn One Product Photo into Scroll-Stopping Ads in Minutes

Turning a single product photo into a high-impact ad shouldn’t take the whole day. In this tutorial you’ll use Dreamina to go from prompt to polished image to motion video in minutes, with just a few precise choices along the way.

  1. Open Dreamina

    → Go to Dreamina’s platform and log in.

  2. Upload product photo

    → Use a clean, high-quality product image (transparent background or good lighting works best).

  3. Set creative direction

    → Decide the overall vibe before prompting (bold, minimal, luxury, futuristic, playful, etc.).

  4. Write ad prompt

    • Example:

    Design a vibrant energy drink ad. Position the bottle at an angle in the center, with neon liquid splashes, glowing ice shards, and citrus sparks bursting around it. Use a dark cosmic background with electric streaks of purple and blue. Add the headline ‘Power in Every Drop’ in a bold, futuristic silver font.”

  5. Add extra details (optional)

    → Refine your prompt by specifying things like:

    • Aspect ratio (1:1, 4:5, or 16:9)

    • Font style (bold, futuristic, elegant)

    • Color palette (neon, pastel, monochrome)

  6. Generate images

    → Tap on Generate. Dreamina will create around 4 variations automatically.

  7. Edit if needed

    → Use the editor to tweak:

    • Colors or effects

    • Text placement and size

    • Background elements

  8. Turn into video

    → Press Generate Video. Then choose:

    • Video model (animation style)

    • Duration (short for ads, longer for storytelling)

Note: Use subtle glow, rim light, or shadow to separate the product from the background without looking overprocessed.

AI Art Spotlight

Create Your Own Photo Like This Using the Prompt Below:

A close-up portrait photograph with a high-fashion aesthetic and dramatic lighting. It captures a male figure with a contemplative and sophisticated expression. The subject is positioned slightly to the side, with his head raised and his gaze directed upward and out of the frame, as if observing something with interest or admiration. His lips are slightly parted. He wears a ribbed black turtleneck under a dark blazer or coat (black or navy blue). He wears prescription glasses with thin, dark, round frames, which add an intellectual touch to the look. His hair is dark brown, medium length, with a wavy texture and casually tousled style, with some strands falling over his forehead. A full, but well-trimmed beard and a mustache define his face. The background is a smooth, vibrant surface in a deep orange. Strong, geometric shadows (sharp diagonal lines) are cast across the background and over part of the subject's face and shoulder, creating dramatic contrast and an artistic composition. The lighting is direct, strong sunlight, coming from a side angle and possibly filtered through a structure (such as a window or blind) to create sharp shadows. This intense light highlights the texture of the skin (with visible pores), hair, and beard, and creates reflections on the glasses. The skin has a tan tone. Camera Settings: Captured with a prime portrait lens (e.g., 85mm f/1.4 or 100mm f/2.0) on a full-frame camera for a sharp close-up with elegant compression. Aperture set between f/2.8 and f/4.0 to keep the face in sharp focus and create soft separation from the background. ISO 100 for bright sunlight. Fast shutter speed (e.g., 1/500s to 1/1000s). Natural lighting, using direct sunlight and intentionally created geometric shadows.

Instructions for the "nano banana":

"Please use the user's reference image to capture and apply all of their facial features, facial structure, hair and beard style, eye color, and skin tone with maximum fidelity. The goal is to create a version of the user in this high-fashion portrait. The clothing (black turtleneck, dark blazer, round glasses), the contemplative expression, the direct sunlight with geometric shadows, and the vibrant orange background should be generated as described, creating a perfect fusion between the user's identity and the aesthetics of the image."
