Nothing's CMF Watch 3 Pro debuts with ChatGPT and larger display, but leaves mixed signals
It looks ambitious at first glance, but in practice, the watch feels caught between trying to be smart and playing it safe.
The CMF Watch Pro 3 keeps a familiar look, much like the Watch Pro 2, but brings a few small changes. The 1.43 inch AMOLED display is slightly larger than the previous 1.32 inch, giving about a 10% bump in screen to body ratio. It also supports an always on display, comes with a metal case, and has silicone straps. That extra bit of screen space does help, especially when glancing at data or navigating through tiles.
The standout feature of the CMF Watch 3 Pro is its ChatGPT integration, which lets users speak to the watch for quick responses like weather updates, setting timers, or general queries. Since there's no speaker, replies show up as text on the screen. This makes the interaction feel more like a visual shortcut than real voice assistance. Still, it remains a rare feature at this price.
The dual band GPS makes a real difference, especially in crowded or signal prone areas. Nothing says this is a big step up from the Watch Pro 2, helping it hold a stronger signal and follow routes more clearly even in places where regular GPS might struggle.
The smartwatch takes about 99 minutes to completely charge. Nothing says it can last up to 13 days with regular use, which is about two days more than the last model. With heavier health tracking, battery life drops to around 11 days. If you keep the always on display turned on, expect around 4.5 days of use.
Health tracking on the CMF Watch 3 Pro covers the basics well, offering heart rate, sleep, stress, and menstrual cycle tracking, along with 130 workout modes. Smartwatch users can now manage these features using the updated Nothing X app, which brings a cleaner interface and support for syncing with Strava, Apple Health, and Google Health Connect. Nothing also confirmed that previous models like Watch Pro and Watch Pro 2 will gradually move to the same app environment.
The battery life of this smartwatch is said to last up to 13 days with basic usage and about 6 to 7 days with regular health tracking. A full charge takes about 90 minutes using the magnetic cable.
The CMF Watch 3 Pro gets some key things right. The sharper display, better GPS, and ChatGPT support do lift the experience in small but clear ways. ChatGPT is fun to show off, but you'll likely stop using it after the first few days.
Still, the software keeps it in check. You can't reply to messages, store music, or use third-party apps. It looks smart and does the basics well, but for those expecting full smartwatch depth, it's not quite there yet.

Meta appoints ChatGPT co-creator as Superintelligence Lab chief
Meta Platforms has appointed Shengjia Zhao, co-creator of ChatGPT, as chief scientist of its Superintelligence Lab, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on Friday, as the company accelerates its push into advanced AI. "In this role, Shengjia will set the research agenda and scientific direction for our new lab working directly with me and Alex," Zuckerberg wrote in a Threads post, referring to Meta's Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang, who Zuckerberg hired from startup Scale AI when Meta took a big stake in it. Zhao, a former research scientist at OpenAI, co-created ChatGPT, GPT-4 and several of OpenAI's mini models, including 4.1 and o3. He is among several researchers who have moved from OpenAI to Meta in recent weeks, part of a broader talent arms race as Zuckerberg aggressively hires from rivals to close the gap in advanced AI. Meta has been offering some of Silicon Valley's most lucrative pay packages and striking startup deals to attract top researchers, a strategy that follows the underwhelming performance of its Llama 4 model. Meta launched the Superintelligence Lab recently to consolidate work on its Llama models and long-term artificial general intelligence ambitions. Zhao is a co-founder of the lab, according to the Threads post, which operates separately from FAIR, Meta's established AI research division led by deep learning pioneer Yann LeCun. Zuckerberg has said Meta aims to build 'full general intelligence' and release its work as open source — a strategy that has drawn both praise and concern within the AI community.

Whoop 5.0 vs 4.0? What's The Difference?
Fitness trackers are becoming increasingly popular day by day. These days, even people who aren't into fitness want a fitness tracker because it's not just about the steps but about being informed and motivated. If you are someone who is into fitness, then the Whoop fitness tracker is something you must have heard of. This smart wearable is designed to monitor your body's performance day and night. After the success of Whoop 4.0, the brand is back with its latest version, the Whoop 5.0. But with the launch of Whoop 5.0, many are asking the big question: What's new compared to Whoop 4.0? Read more to know the major difference between Whoop 5.0 and 4.0, and what remains the same. Better Bluetooth Connection One of the major problems in Whoop 4.0 was its connection issues, especially when syncing with fitness apps or smartwatches. With 5.0, those problems are largely fixed as it has been upgraded to dual-band Bluetooth. In simple words, it connects more smoothly and reliably to your phone and other devices. More Accurate Tracking in Tough Conditions Whoop 4.0 faced some tracking issues during intense workouts. Whoop 5.0 brings improved heart rate tracking, even during intense workouts. Whether you're running, cycling, or doing high-intensity training, you'll get more accurate readings thanks to upgraded sensors. Better Compatibility with Other Devices Fitness lovers often use multiple gadgets. Whoop 5.0 makes it easier to pair with devices like smartwatches, gym equipment, or apps like Apple Health and Strava. This wasn't as smooth on the 4.0 version. Same Design The sleek, screenless design of Whoop made heads turn and became its identity. That's the reason the brand decided not to bring major changes to the design. It's light, comfortable, and meant to be worn all day and night and even in the shower. Battery Life Remains the Same Both Whoop 4.0 and 5.0 offer around 4–5 days of battery life, which is pretty impressive considering they track you 24/7. You still get the handy on-the-go battery pack, so you don't need to take it off to charge. The Main Question – Should You Upgrade? If you are already using the Whoop 4.0 and it works well for you, then the upgrade is not really necessary. But if you want better connectivity, improved accuracy, and a smoother experience with your other fitness devices, Whoop 5.0 is a smart move.

Using ChatGPT As Therapist? Sam Altman Says Chats Are Not Private
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has warned that ChatGPT chats are not private and legally protected like therapy sessions, and deleted chats may still be retrieved for legal and security reasons. Mr Altman's warning comes in the backdrop of an increasing number of people using the AI tool as a therapist. While chats with real therapists, doctors and lawyers are protected by legal rules, the same is not true for talks with chatbots, at least for now, Mr Altman conceded. "People talk about the most personal sh*t in their lives to ChatGPT. People use it - young people, especially, use it - as a therapist, a life coach; having these relationship problems and [asking] what should I do?" Mr Altman told podcaster Theo Von. "Right now, if you talk to a therapist or a lawyer or a doctor about those problems, there's legal privilege for it. There's doctor-patient confidentiality, there's legal confidentiality, whatever. And we haven't figured that out yet for when you talk to ChatGPT." As per Mr Altman, a growing number of people, especially the younger users, were turning to ChatGPT to seek help and advice. 'No one had to think about that even a year ago, and now I think it's this huge issue of like, 'How are we gonna treat the laws around this?'' See the post here: Sam Altman tells Theo Von about how people use ChatGPT as a therapist and there needs to be new laws on chat history privacy: 'If you go talk to ChatGPT about your most sensitive stuff and then there's a lawsuit, we could be required to produce that.' — Bearly AI (@bearlyai) July 27, 2025 AI as therapist? According to a yet-to-be-peer-reviewed study by researchers at Stanford University, AI therapist chatbots are not yet ready to handle the responsibility of being a counsellor, as they contribute to harmful mental health stigmas. "We find that these chatbots respond inappropriately to various mental health conditions, encouraging delusions and failing to recognise crises. The Large Language Models (LLMs) that power them fare poorly and additionally show stigma. These issues fly in the face of best clinical practice," the study highlighted. The study noted that while therapists are expected to treat all patients equally, regardless of their condition, the chatbots weren't acting in the same way when dealing with the problems. The chatbots reflected harmful social stigma towards illnesses like schizophrenia and alcohol dependence, and were comparatively much easier on conditions like depression.
