Department of War Restores U.S. Pacific Command Designation. CAMP H.M. SMITH, Hawaii — The Department of War announced today that the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) will officially restore its name to the U.S. Pacific Command (USPACOM). Originally established on January 1, 1947, by President Harry S. Truman, the command operated under the USPACOM banner for over 70 years, standing as the oldest and largest of the United States' unified combatant commands. Restoring the legacy USPACOM designation honors the command’s deep historical roots, fostering a sense of pride and collective spirit among all who serve in the Pacific. From its critical role in establishing the post-WWII regional security architecture to its coordination of joint forces during the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and countless humanitarian operations, the USPACOM namesake carries decades of military heritage and enduring regional partnerships. USPACOM’s vast area of responsibility—spanning from the waters off the West Coast of the United States to the western border of India—remains exactly the same. The command's fundamental mission and its unwavering commitment to maintaining a free and open theater alongside regional allies and partners are unchanged. dvidshub.net/r/zmngnb

We're making a small update to the model picker in ChatGPT! We know it's critical to a lot of people's work, and that we have a lot of paying users who care deeply about this one, so wanted to take some time to detail out the tweak. One important point upfront – you'll still have access to the same models and reasoning levels, besides the removal of thinking-light (used by less than 1% of our paid users). You'll see an updated list of options (similar to how Codex works): - Instant - Medium (Thinking-Standard) - High (Thinking-Extended) - Extra High (Thinking-Heavy) [for pro users] - Pro (with option to choose Pro-Standard or Pro-Extended) [for pro users] The intent is to make it easier to choose the balance of speed and effort that works best for your task. We also took into account community feedback to make sure: a) Thinking-heavy is easily accessible b) Pro standard and Pro extended are easily accessible c) We clearly communicate these changes Given that, here are some release notes detailing the updates - help.openai.com/chatgpt-rele…. Give it a try, it's rolling out today, and we're always open to feedback, we know it's important to get it right!
