Why it matters
- →Dots introduces a visual canvas that integrates directly with ChatGPT's persistent context.
- →Users can pin images, documents, and code to the workspace for complex analysis.
- →The feature signals OpenAI's focus on multimodal and spatial reasoning workflows.
OpenAI has released Dots, a new visual collaboration feature within ChatGPT that adds an infinite canvas to the chat interface. Users can pin images, documents, and code snippets to the workspace while maintaining a persistent conversation thread with the AI. The tool is designed to support complex problem-solving by allowing users to visually organize multimodal inputs alongside text-based reasoning. This release marks a shift toward spatial workflows in consumer AI applications.

llama.cpp b11535 release with ROCm 10 and CUDA 13
This release quietly cements llama.cpp as the universal inference runtime by adding default support for ROCm 10.0 and CUDA 13.4 across Linux and Windows. AMD GPU users finally get parity with NVIDIA's latest driver stack without manual configuration, while Apple Silicon KleidiAI builds are temporarily disabled to resolve stability issues. The inclusion of Snapdragon NPU support on Linux signals a serious push into edge AI hardware beyond just x86 and ARM CPUs. It is less about new features and more about ensuring the toolchain keeps pace with the rapidly evolving GPU landscape.

llama.cpp b11540 adds ROCm 10 and CUDA 13 support
This release quietly closes the hardware gap for local inference by adding default builds for ROCm 10.0 and CUDA 13.4 across Linux and Windows. AMD users finally get parity with NVIDIA in the binary distribution, while CUDA 13 support future-proofs setups on newer drivers. The inclusion of Snapdragon and OpenVINO binaries further broadens the hardware surface area without requiring custom compilation. It is a pragmatic update that makes llama.cpp the most accessible runtime for diverse local AI hardware.
