Daily AI news digest: OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar told staff the company will go public "in 2027," possibly earlier if business stays strong; it raised $122B in March and secretly filed IPO paperwork in June, while rival Anthropic — also secretly filed — could list as soon as September. Meta is preparing MuseVideo, a video generation model in partner beta that produces clips up to 10 seconds, showing promise in detail and temporal stability but with audio-sync and fast-motion physics gaps. MiniMax launched MiniMax Design, the first official harness for H3: a multimodal creation agent that decomposes tasks and orchestrates models and skills from asset processing to final delivery.
