A new survey finds that short story fiction written by AI is preferred over the same genre of fiction written by humans.
Observes writer Nicola Davis: “Participants who read an AI-generated story rated it as more absorbing and of higher quality than those who read a story written by a human.”
All told, 1,682 adults were asked to read six short stories for the study – three stories written by AI and three stories written by humans.

*ChatGPT Now Offers Unlimited Free Text Chat: In a hard-to-beat bargain, everyone now has access to unlimited free text chat on ChatGPT – albeit, on a less-than-bleeding edge version of the popular AI.
Essentially, ChatGPT Free and ChatGPT Go users can now text chat forever using GPT-5.6 Luna – which is not as smart as GPT-5.6 Sol, currently the smartest AI from ChatGPT.
Observes AzerNews: “The unlimited access will apply only to text-based conversations. Separate usage limits will remain in place for file uploads and processing, image and voice features, as well as AI-powered image generation.”
*Recent Rogue AI Break-Ins Attributed to Israeli Testing Firm: Turns out, a testing firm is responsible for experimental AI software from ChatGPT’s maker that broke into the Hugging Face Web site.
Even worse: AI testing by the same firm – Irregular – also triggered similar rogue activity from experimental AI software under testing from Facebook parent Meta and Anthropic.
For many, the concept of rogue AI roaming the Web and breaking into to Web sites blurs the line between sci-fi fantasy and everyday reality.
*Surprise, Surprise: AI Creator ‘Canva’ Number Two AI Web Site in the World: Despite all the press for AI sites like Gemini and Claude, turns out Canva – specializing in AI-powered digital design – is the Number Two most visited AI site on the planet.
Specifically, Canva attracted 10.5 billion Web site visits between May 2025 and April 2026.
ChatGPT – the Number One AI juggernaut – attracted 64.7 billion visits during the same period.
*‘Adobe for ChatGPT’ Plugin Now Available: ChatGPT-lovers who would rather work in the ChatGPT interface – rather than switch to work with Adobe tools – now have a plugin for that.
Designed to integrate with ChatGPT Work and ChatGPT Codex, the plugin puts 70+ Adobe tools at your fingertips when you’re working with ChatGPT, including Acrobat, Photoshop, Premiere and Illustrator.
Observes Adobe spokesperson Deepti Pradeep: “Simply activate the Adobe plugin, describe what you want to create, and it automatically brings together the right Adobe tools behind the scenes to get you there.”
*6% of Fast Food Drive-Thrus Now Use AI: Despite a shaky start, fast food joints are increasingly using AI voice-bots to take orders at drive-thrus.
Observes writer Kate Taylor: “For most of these customers, the first AI order comes as a surprise one to be filmed and posted on TikTok or Snapchat.”
*ChatGPT Abandons its AI Browser ‘Atlas:’ OpenAI’s dream to popularize a Web browser driven by AI is officially on the scrap heap.
The company officially pulled the plug on Atlas August 9, 2026.
Observes writer Vikhyaat Vivek: “OpenAI added that the lessons learned from Atlas are informing a more capable browser experience inside ChatGPT. The new desktop app supports features including multiple tabs, downloads, improved navigation, account logins, and more involved agent-led browsing where available.”
*With ChatGPT, Workers Are Dabbling With Multiple Job Roles: A new study from ChatGPT’s maker finds the AI tool is emboldening workers to take on tasks normally reserved for people in other departments.
Specifically, the study found that 44% of occupation-specific messages posted to ChatGPT are from people in one occupation, asking about information associated with another profession.
Observes the OpenAI blog: “A small-business owner can independently draft copy, review a contract, or perform basic financial analysis. A salesperson can use AI to explore a customer dataset that might once have gone to an analyst. A marketer can troubleshoot a website without waiting for a developer. In each case, AI changes not just how work gets done, but who does what.”
*ChatGPT Now offers Unlimited Free Chat: In a hard-to-beat bargain, everyone now has access to unlimited free text chat on ChatGPT — albeit, on a less-than-bleeding-edge version of the popular Ai.
Essentially ChatGPT Free and ChatGPT Go users can now use ChatGPT text chat without limits on GPT-5.6 Luna — which is not as smart as GPT-5.6 Sol, currently the smartest AI from ChatGPT.
Observes AzerNews: “The unlimited access will apply only to text-based conversations. Separate usage limits will remain in place for file uploads and processing, image and voice features, as well as AI-powered image generation.”
*Experimental AI Law Lab Opens in New York City: Legal intelligence provider LexisNexis has opened an experimental lab where AI programmers and legal experts can meet to develop and experiment with new AI-powered legal tools.
Observes Bob Ambrogi: “Rather than developing AI capabilities internally and asking customers to validate them after the fact, the lab brings customers into a working session, where LexisNexis engineers build against their specific pain points in real time.”
