A cartoon body-swap rule becomes a real reasoning engine for figuring out who can return to their own body.

A safety post says it kept escaping its sandbox, so OpenAI pulled the plug on one of its most capable models.

Fiscal Q3 results crush estimates, prove AI memory is rewriting Micron's margins, and change the momentum math for the whole chip stack.
