Diddy trial latest: 'Threatening' texts sent to assistant 'Mia' read out at trial
The sex-trafficking trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs is continuing to hear evidence from the second of his alleged victims, a former assistant who is using the pseudonym 'Mia' to protect her privacy. Follow the latest from the trial, and catch up on what's happened so far, below. 15:33:39 Mia says Diddy became angry at her for counting his money too slowly Mia, Sean Combs's former assistant, is now asked about a trip to the Caribbean island St Barts on New Year's Eve in 2010. She says she was staying on a chartered yacht with Diddy and other members of his staff. Mia describes a moment when she was called into the rapper's room and was told to count the money in his safe, something she says was not her job. Despite doing as he asked, Mia says Combs became "really angry" and accused her of counting too slowly. "He chased me out of the room," she says, telling the jury that she ran to the third floor to hide. "I just wanted to get away from him and leave the country," she adds, but says she went back on the boat "because I felt that I had to". 15:18:56 'He is currently firing me at the moment': Email shows moment Diddy's former assistant was suspended Attention now turns to how Sean Combs's former assistant was suspended. Mia explains that she was suspended for oversleeping, adding that she accidentally overslept after being awake for several days. The jury is shown an email chain between Mia and another employee of Sean Combs in March 2011. In the email, Mia is asked about the handling of tickets for an event, and responded by saying "I'd totally help but he is currently firing me at the moment". She says that came after she bought the wrong workout gear for Diddy, leading to her being suspended without pay. Mia explains that she continued working for Combs until 2017, adding "I tried to run away before and it didn't work". When asked if she could get other jobs, Mia says Diddy would have destroyed her reputation. "I was scared of him," she says. 15:02:57 'Let's go to war': Diddy threatens to 'tell everything' in messages shown to jury The jury is shown another WhatsApp exchange, this time between Sean Combs and Mia on 31 October 2025, while she was still in South Africa. "If you don't call me now f*** it all. And imma tell everything. And dont ever speak me again. You have 2 min. F*** her. Call my [house] now or never speak to me again. F*** abc and all lawyers. Let's go to war," Diddy wrote in one message shared with the court. Mia explains that US TV network ABC had bought the rights to a comedy show she had written, but it never aired. When asked what she thought Diddy's message meant, Mia says he was threatening to tell Cassie about the times he had sexually assaulted her but "framed differently... that I had a part in it". Prosecutor Madison Smyser asks Mia what would happen if she didn't follow Diddy's instructions, to which she says she would have been in big trouble, losing her job and being emotionally or physically abused. 14:50:48 Mia recalls 'night terrors' about Diddy and says he threatened to kill her The jury is shown a WhatsApp exchange between Sean Combs's chief of staff Kristina Khorram and Mia in October 2015. Khorram initiates the conversation and tells Mia that Diddy wants to talk to her. Mia responds by saying Diddy didn't sound right in his mind, adding that he was slurring his words, threatening her job and threatened to kill her. When asked by prosecutor Madison Smyser about how those threats made her feel, Mia says she was "desperate to make it right, terrified and sad". When Khorram asked Mia how things were going, she said she was sore, had anxiety and suffered "night terrors" about Diddy. 14:36:11 'I was put in the middle': Mia on moment Cassie found out Diddy was 'cheating' on her Prosecutor Madison Smyser starts by asking Mia about the relationship between Sean "Diddy" Combs and Cassie Ventura. Mia explains that Combs told her to go to South Africa with Cassie in October 2015, and while they were there Cassie found out Combs was allegedly cheating on her. "She was devastated," Mia says, after Cassie found a video online showing Combs with another woman. Mia testifies that Cassie stopped answering his calls at one point, with Combs's chief of staff Kristina Khorram trying to reach out. "I was put in the middle," she adds. 14:16:37 'Mia' returns to the stand Sean "Diddy" Combs's former personal assistant, who is testifying under the pseudonym "Mia", has now returned to the stand and will continue giving evidence. Mia testified for most of the day yesterday and started by answering questions calmly, but became emotional as she described Diddy's relationship with Cassie Ventura and alleged sexual assaults. She cried as she recalled feeling "terrified and trapped", recounting Combs allegedly forcing himself on her. 14:11:26 Judge and attorneys discuss logistics as former personal assistant to resume evidence The judge and attorneys are continuing to discuss logistics after Diddy's attorney Marc Agnifilo highlighted communication issues with Sean Combs (see previous post). A reminder, we're expecting Combs's former personal assistant, who is testifying under the pseudonym "Mia", to return to the stand and continue giving evidence today. 13:48:05 Diddy case pushing boundaries of what court security is available to do, judge says Before we hear from Mia again, Judge Arun Subramanian is in conversation with one of Diddy's attorneys about his ability to speak to Sean Combs outside courtroom hours. Subramanian tells the court that the Diddy case is pushing the boundaries of what court security and the marshals are available to do. He suggests getting Combs to the court building at 7am (12pm UK time) would give his attorneys substantial time to confer with him. Marc Agnifilo, one of Diddy's attorneys, says thank you for the marshals service but says they don't allow documents to be shown. "We are restrained if we want to show him exhibits, we can't do it in the facility we have," he says. However, the judge tells Agnifilo that the access he and Combs have had is much greater than defendants in many cases, adding that this is a unique case. 13:34:12 Day 13 of trial under way Today's session is now under way. A reminder, Sean Combs's former personal assistant, who is testifying under the pseudonym "Mia", will continue giving evidence. Take a look back at a summary of the testimony she gave yesterday in our previous post. We'll bring you the latest updates from her evidence. 13:23:01 A recap of what happened in court yesterday It's day 13 of Sean "Diddy" Combs's trial and proceedings are about to start again in a few minutes. Before that, here is a look at what happened yesterday: Combs's former personal assistant, who testified under the pseudonym "Mia", said that the hip-hop mogul sexually assaulted her, threw her into a swimming pool, dumped a bucket of ice on her head and slammed her arm into a door during her eight-year tenure; She said Combs berated her for mistakes, even ones made by other employees, and loaded her up with so many tasks she did not sleep for days; Mia told the court she once woke to find Combs on top of her and that he forced her to have sex against her will. Another time, he forced her to perform oral sex, she alleged; She also said Combs's employees were always on edge because his mood could "change in a split second", causing everything to go from "happy to chaotic"; Mia said she saw Diddy being violent or threatening towards Cassie on several occasions, including at the Cannes Film Festival in 2012, during a party at Prince's house, and on a trip to a private island in Turks and Caicos; She claimed Combs once pressured her into taking ketamine, and described incidents when he allegedly slammed a door on her arm and threw spaghetti at her; The court heard she had never told anyone of the alleged attacks until the government's investigation in this case, and that it was a secret she had expected to take to the grave; Mia's testimony echoed that of prior prosecution witnesses, including several of Combs's other former employees, as well as his former partner Cassie.

OpenAI's New Device Company and the Race for the Ultimate Travel Assistant
OpenAI is taking a step toward its AI knowing more about you. For travelers, that could be key to an assistant that anticipates needs. Big tech companies developing generative AI have said they envision their tech as an everyday personal assistant, and that includes performing travel tasks. Google, Microsoft, and Apple have all had advantages over OpenAI because they also produce a variety of their own devices. (Apple's iPhone 16 has a side button to activate an AI assistant, for example.) OpenAI, on the other hand, is mostly limited to its app. But it wants to change that. The company is establishing its own device company with the help of Jony Ive, who led the design of the iPhone and other Apple devices. OpenAI said last week that it plans to acquire the design company Ive co-founded for $6.5 billion. To win the race, each of the tech companies is trying to make their AI fit into users' lives the most naturally and seamlessly. That means building AI into phones, laptops, watches, TVs, extended reality headsets, glasses, and more. When devices are connected, a single digital assistant could tap into multiple sources — seeing what you see, hearing what you hear, and learning from your behavior. For travelers, the idea is that the digital assistant can act as a travel agent that anticipates needs and doesn't just follow commands. Paired with fast-moving tech that could allow AI to search and book on a user's behalf, the AI assistants themselves could be the main way users purchase travel. Maybe you took a virtual stroll around Machu Picchu on your virtual reality headset, so later you get an alert on your phone about lower-than-usual priced flights to Peru. Maybe your smart glasses saw you lingering in front of a Monet painting at the museum, so you get an alert on your phone a few weeks later about a new impressionist exhibit. Maybe the AI sees an outdoor tour scheduled on your calendar, so your watch alerts you that it's about to rain, with suggestions for an indoor activity it knows you like based on past searches. It's easy to see how Apple could take this next step. The button on the side of the iPhone 16 activates the camera, and the AI can pull information from the internet about what it sees. And Apple has already created the technology to connect devices through the Apple ID. Google is taking steps toward this vision, as well. The company is reimagining Search, powered by AI with connections across the user's apps. And its Gemini bot is coming to cars, watches, TVs, smart glasses, and extended reality headsets. The glasses should be able to search for nearby restaurants and give walking directions with just a voice command. Apple and Google could be somewhat limited in their ability to move as quickly as they'd like, however. It's tough to completely overhaul an established suite of products. OpenAI has an opportunity to fully reimagine how devices operate, built from the ground up with AI at their heart. There's also the question of ensuring the hardware can handle the computing power that AI demands. Just because OpenAI releases products doesn't mean they'll be successful, however. Microsoft last decade dropped its phone and Zune portable media player in the face of competition. And Google ditched its first try at smart glasses, Google Glass, in 2023 after a couple of redesigns. OpenAI only said that it's planning a 'family of products,' and the team hopes to share more details next year.

11 Genius ChatGPT Hacks to Skyrocket Your Productivity in 2025
Have you ever felt like there just aren't enough hours in the day? Between juggling emails, managing projects, and tackling endless to-do lists, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But what if you had a tool that could not only lighten the load but also supercharge your productivity? Enter ChatGPT—a innovative AI assistant that's far more than just a chatbot. From automating tedious tasks to tailoring responses that fit your exact needs, ChatGPT has the potential to transform how you work, think, and create. The best part? With a few clever tweaks and strategies, you can unlock its full potential and make it work harder for you. Imagine saving hours each week while staying laser-focused on what truly matters. Kevin Stratvert explores 11 practical tips and tricks to help you harness the full power of ChatGPT. Whether you're looking to streamline your workflow, protect sensitive data, or even collaborate in real-time, these strategies will show you how to make ChatGPT your ultimate productivity partner. You'll discover features like temporary chats for privacy, automation integrations, and even voice interaction for hands-free multitasking. But that's just the beginning—there's a world of possibilities waiting to be uncovered. Let's reimagine what productivity looks like when technology works smarter, not harder, alongside you. ChatGPT Productivity Tips Temporary Chats: Protect Your Privacy Temporary chats, often referred to as 'incognito mode,' allow you to interact with ChatGPT without saving your queries. This feature is particularly valuable when handling sensitive information or when you prefer not to have your current conversation influence future responses. By allowing temporary chats, you can ensure confidentiality and maintain control over your data. This is especially useful for professionals working with private or proprietary information, as it provides an added layer of privacy protection. Automation with Zapier: Eliminate Repetitive Tasks Integrating ChatGPT with Zapier unlocks a wide range of automation possibilities, allowing you to connect ChatGPT with tools like Gmail, Slack, and Google Sheets. This integration can help you automate repetitive tasks, such as: Drafting personalized email responses based on incoming messages. Updating spreadsheets with real-time data. Managing notifications and reminders seamlessly. For example, you can set up workflows where ChatGPT automatically generates email drafts or updates project trackers, saving you hours of manual effort. By using this feature, you can focus on higher-priority tasks while ChatGPT handles the routine work. 11 ChatGPT Tips & Tricks Watch this video on YouTube. Dive deeper into ChatGPT productivity tips with other articles and guides we have written below. Custom Instructions: Tailor Responses to Your Needs Custom instructions allow you to personalize how ChatGPT interacts with you, making sure that its responses align with your specific goals. You can specify preferences for tone, style, or format, making it easier to get the results you need. For instance: Request concise, professional summaries for work-related tasks. Opt for casual, conversational replies for personal interactions. This feature ensures that ChatGPT adapts to your unique requirements, making your interactions more efficient and relevant. Whether you're drafting a formal report or brainstorming creative ideas, custom instructions help you achieve the desired outcome. Memory Management: Start Fresh Anytime ChatGPT's memory management feature allows you to clear or reset its memory, providing a clean slate for new conversations. This is particularly helpful when switching between projects or topics, as it prevents past interactions from influencing current tasks. By starting fresh, you can maintain focus and avoid confusion, making sure that your conversations remain organized and on-topic. This feature is especially useful for users managing multiple projects or working in dynamic environments. Voice Interaction: Hands-Free Productivity Voice interaction enables you to communicate with ChatGPT hands-free, making it an ideal solution for multitasking. You can dictate prompts and receive spoken responses, which is particularly useful in scenarios such as: Driving or commuting. Cooking or performing household tasks. Engaging in activities where typing isn't practical. With customizable voice options, you can tailor the experience to suit your preferences, enhancing both convenience and efficiency. This feature is especially beneficial for users who need to stay productive while on the move or juggling multiple responsibilities. Data Privacy: Take Control of Your Information Data privacy is a critical concern for many users, and ChatGPT offers settings to help you maintain control over your information. By disabling the self-improvement mode, you can ensure that your data isn't used for model training. This gives you greater confidence in using the platform, knowing that your information remains private. For users handling sensitive or confidential data, this feature provides an added layer of security and peace of mind. File Integration: Work Seamlessly with Documents ChatGPT's file integration feature allows you to connect platforms like Google Drive or OneDrive, allowing you to reference documents directly within your prompts. This capability streamlines your workflow by eliminating the need to switch between applications. For example, you can: Upload a report and ask ChatGPT to summarize it. Extract key insights from a document for quick analysis. By integrating files into your conversations, you can save time and improve accuracy when working on complex tasks or projects. Web Search and Data Sources: Stay Informed Allowing web search allows ChatGPT to access real-time information, making sure that its responses are up-to-date. Additionally, you can limit responses to specific data sources for more accurate and relevant results. This feature is particularly valuable for: Conducting research on current events or trends. Working with time-sensitive information. Verifying facts or data for professional tasks. By using web search, you can ensure that your outputs are both reliable and timely, making it an essential tool for professionals and researchers alike. Model Selection: Optimize Performance ChatGPT offers multiple models, each optimized for different tasks. Selecting the right model can significantly improve your results. For example: Use advanced models for detailed analysis or complex queries. Opt for simpler models for quick, straightforward tasks. By tailoring the model to your specific needs, you can achieve the best possible performance for any given task. This flexibility ensures that ChatGPT remains a versatile tool, capable of adapting to a wide range of applications. Canvas Tool: Collaborate in Real-Time The Canvas tool is a versatile feature designed to enhance collaboration. Whether you're writing, coding, or editing, this tool allows you to work alongside ChatGPT with targeted feedback. It's particularly useful for: Brainstorming ideas and generating creative solutions. Refining drafts and improving content quality in real-time. Collaborating on technical or creative projects with ease. This feature fosters teamwork and streamlines project workflows, making it an invaluable resource for collaborative environments. Project Organization: Keep Your Work Structured Organizing your projects within ChatGPT helps you manage related chats, files, and instructions more effectively. By grouping similar tasks, you can: Maintain a clear and logical structure. Quickly access relevant information when needed. Reduce time spent searching for past interactions. This approach ensures that you stay organized and focused on your priorities, improving both productivity and efficiency. Bonus: Mobile App Features for Productivity on the Go The ChatGPT mobile app offers additional features that enhance productivity while you're away from your desk. These include: Voice conversations for hands-free interaction. Image-based prompts for visual tasks and creative projects. These tools make it easier to stay productive, no matter where you are, making sure that you can seamlessly transition between desktop and mobile workflows.

Instead of a single platform to streamline everything, we have the chaos of Slack for communication, Trello for tasks, Google Sheets for tracking and Zoom for meetings. At a time when productivity is slipping in many workplaces, the push for greater efficiency is becoming more urgent. And many business leaders are realizing that piecing together a dozen apps isn't solving the problem. That's where platforms like Swatle are trying to change the game for the better. Unlike legacy task managers or chat apps, Swatle is an all-in-one AI-powered system that reduces the cognitive load of managing work. It centralizes tasks, conversations, timelines and file-sharing into a single intuitive hub, and adds AI support to help you work through it faster. What does that look like in practice? A manager can type in a project idea, and Swatle will help break it into tasks with time estimates. Or if you need a quick status report, you can ask AI instead of scheduling another meeting. Trying to clean up a rambling Slack message? Swatle can rewrite it clearly and professionally. And instead of toggling between Gantt charts, Kanban boards and spreadsheets, teams can visualize progress in any way that suits them all in one place. Swatle is the kind of tool that makes sense for growing companies trying to scale without bloating their staff or budget. A lifetime license is currently available for $84, making it a cost-effective alternative to pricey SaaS subscriptions. In a competitive economy, speed and clarity matter. And while AI can't replace human strategy, it might be just the kind of assistant every team needs to stay sharp, stay focused and stop drowning in digital noise. Pick up a lifetime subscription to Swatle for $84 while it's on sale. What: Limited-time sale Price: $84 (Was: $335) Where to buy: Lifetime access to Swatle Prices subject to change.
