Month: October 2026

OpenAI has unveiled a huge improvement for ChatGPT. We’re talking about the launch of GPT-6 and its Intelligent UI system. After the arrival of GPT-6 Astra and then the Sol and Luna models, the company wants to turn the chat we use to talk to GPT into an interface that can adapt directly to what we’re asking in real time. According to OpenAI, the responses combine text, graphics, buttons, forms, and interactive tools within the same conversation.

Intelligent UI completely changes the way we use ChatGPT

Until now, talking with ChatGPT meant getting a written response 100% of the time. Intelligent UI completely does away with that concept: every query becomes a visual and interactive experience generated on the fly based on the question. We can ask for a recipe and adjust the quantities based on the number of guests, see side-by-side comparisons of certain images, or understand a concept through an animated diagram.

The idea continues the evolution that, in fact, we already saw with Canvas in terms of flexibility and with ChatGPT Work in terms of iteration. AI moves from answering questions to building tools in response to our requests. A calculator, an expense splitter, or even a small illustrative game can now easily appear in the chat and adapt to our instructions.

GPT-6 starts answering while it still thinks

OpenAI has trained GPT-6 to start giving us information while it continues reasoning and searching for data. The response appears more progressively and we can start reading it sooner, which allows us to add more details or clarifications in certain cases or, simply, stick with the initial explanation.

GPT-6 Sol is coming to the Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans, while GPT-6 Luna is aimed at the Free and Go plans and should appear in the selector, within the next few hours.

OpenAI changed ChatGPT’s main Chat tab on October 7. The big shift is that replies can now be interactive replies and powered by GPT-6, with charts, diagrams, buttons, forms, and small tools built right into the chat instead of plain text alone.

The rollout started October 7 for Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise accounts, and it reaches Free and Go on October 8. Free and Go users get the lighter GPT-6 Luna. Paid users get GPT-6 Sol. Enterprise access may still depend on whatever settings an admin has in place. This is for the main ChatGPT experience only, not ChatGPT Work or Codex. OpenAI says ChatGPT now has more than 1.2 billion weekly users.

OpenAI says some answers can now be adjusted directly in the chat through simple tools. Its examples include a Sunday roast planner, a visual breakdown of bike parts, and a bill splitter. If you’d rather keep things simple, plain-text responses are still there, and the visual layer can be dialed back.

There’s a speed claim here too. OpenAI says GPT-6 Instant starts responding 44% sooner on average than GPT-5.6 Instant on web-search questions, because it begins answering while it’s still reasoning. If you use ChatGPT often, this is the kind of update you’ll probably want to try for yourself.

You’ll see these changes in the main ChatGPT interface worldwide, OpenAI says, as it pushes toward richer chat experiences alongside Google Gemini and Anthropic Claude. The broader questions haven’t gone away, though: free-tier limits, accessibility, privacy, security, accuracy, bias, and oversight are all still on the table.

India’s Ministry of Communications pushed back today on Elon Musk’s complaints about Starlink’s path to approval in India, saying the country’s satellite-clearance process is fair, transparent, and non-discriminatory, not some protective wall for unnamed “oligarchs” or a monopolistic squeeze.

The ministry’s position is straightforward: Starlink, Eutelsat OneWeb, and Reliance Jio Space Technology all hold GMPCS licenses, and all three are still waiting on security clearance before they can get spectrum.

So the real bottleneck is security. Indian rules on in-country gateways, data sovereignty, and lawful interception were shaped in part by what the country learned from the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

SpaceX has already spent more than five years getting ready. It has tied up with Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, appointed Prabhakar Jayakumar to run its India operations, and set up more than 20 gateway sites along with hundreds of antennas. At India Mobile Congress, Lauren Dreyer also said Starlink wants to back Narendra Modi’s push for universal connectivity, serving as a complement in hard-to-reach areas.

And this story still matters if you’ve been following satellite internet in India. After the 2021 preorders, the 2022 refunds, and the fight over spectrum allocation, the market could exceed $528 million by 2030. Even so, Starlink still isn’t commercially available in India, and when it does arrive, it will still cost more than the country’s ultra-cheap mobile data.

Steam’s autumn sale ought to cool us down. Especially when, like this year, autumn has been a bit strange weather-wise. That’s why we’re going to help you with a great selection of the titles you shouldn’t miss. Some very popular, others more niche, all of them excellent and for every budget. These are the titles you shouldn’t miss and that we recommend. Let’s not waste time, let’s get to it!

Solasta: Crown of the Magister (€2.99 | 90% off)

If Baldur’s Gate 3 seemed excellent to you, but you miss a good classic-style isometric PC RPG with all the depth of the first two entries, then look no further. Solasta: Crown of the Magister does exactly that for an absolutely unbeatable price. It doesn’t have the most incredible story, but instead, it gives you a tremendously fun game that feels like a very well thought-out update of a classic style that isn’t made nearly as much anymore. And sometimes that’s all we need, especially for what costs little more than a coffee.

Monster Hunter Rise (€3.99 | -90%)

Maybe you’re still not into Monster Hunter, it catches your eye, but you can’t bring yourself to spend €40 or €60 on the game. That’s normal: it’s an intimidating franchise. But this makes it easy. For €4 you can play the penultimate game in the series and find out whether it’s for you or not and, if it is, easily sink 100 or 200 hours into it before you can say you’ve finished it. Even though it doesn’t include its expansion, Sunbreak, it doesn’t even need it to feel complete; that’s how deep and dense this game feels.

Celeste (€4.74 | 75% off)

One of the first indie games that really managed to explode into the mainstream, and for very good reasons. Celeste is a game that, if you want to play it casually, is fun, tender, and very interesting, but if you want to 100% it, it’s going to ask everything of you if you want to get the most out of it. Accessible, but at the same time really difficult if you want to squeeze it for all it’s worth, and with exquisite storytelling, art, and music, it’s a game you shouldn’t miss if you like platformers even the slightest bit and still haven’t played it.

Far Cry 6 (€5.99 | -90%)

One of Ubisoft’s best recent games and one of the best Far Crys. Even though a lot of people dismissed it, probably because of franchise fatigue and the company itself, Far Cry 6 is an outstanding entry in the franchise. With the best of open-world design, a strong story, and characters packed with personality, the franchise’s classic emergent gameplay is still present and as finely tuned as ever. Making this one of the best modern entries in the series.

Derelict Star (€6.40 | 20% off)

Even though this one is for the hardcore, it’s one of those games that has to be here. Derelict Star is a very demanding precision platformer, with charming pixel art, that demands one very specific thing: pixel-perfect jumps. Tremendously demanding, it’s not a game for the vast majority of people, but those who enjoy perfectly calculated jumps and difficulty bordering on cruelty will find a real treat in Derelict Star.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (€9.99 | -75%)

With the third entry on the horizon, it’s time to champion the Final Fantasy VII remakes. And although we’ve chosen the first because it’s at an unbeatable price, the second isn’t much more expensive: just €5 more. That’s why, now that we’re barely six months away from its third and final entry (as far as we know: there’s always room for one more DLC), it’s the perfect time not just to buy them, but to play them. Because if you don’t catch up now, when?

Marathon (€23.99 | 40% off)

It hasn’t been the huge success they were expecting at Sony or Bungie, but it’s very far from being the disaster some people say it is. Marathon is a fascinating game with a very passionate audience. What’s more, Bungie is determined to smooth out its rough edges by introducing all kinds of modes so they can reach a much broader audience. If it makes you curious, but the price was putting you off, now’s the time to take the plunge: at a much more reasonable price—almost half off—, it’s a good chance to see whether it really was that bad. Or that good.

Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut (€35.99 | -40%)

Speaking of Sony, the latest big first-party game to come to PC and, apparently, one of the last to do so, has had a good bite taken out of its price. Ghost of Tsushima is an evocative game that has its own take on the open world, much more poetic and calm, focusing more on the story and the journey than on exploration and ticking icons off the map. Even though the price is still high, Sony’s first-party games don’t really drop much anymore, so it’s a golden opportunity to buy it if you’re interested. And believe us: it’s worth it.
