WHAT CAUGHT OUR ATTENTION MOST
AI Giant at Risk: OpenAI's Projected $5 Billion Loss and Soaring Operational Costs
OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, is projected to lose up to $5 billion this year due to significant expenses, including nearly $7 billion on AI model training and $1.5 billion on staffing. These costs far exceed those of competitors like Anthropic, which is expected to spend over $2.7 billion by 2024.
OpenAI is also under regulatory scrutiny, with potential investigations by the SEC and concerns from US lawmakers about its safety standards and employment practices. These challenges could impact the company’s ability to maintain its rapid innovation pace.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON IT
SearchGPT: OpenAI Challenges Google in the AI Search Arena
OpenAI is currently testing a groundbreaking search engine: SearchGPT . This new tool aims to directly challenge Google's long-standing dominance in the search market. SearchGPT will include information from business partners to enrich search results and provide clear source citations.
This move comes as Google, a longtime leader in search, faces challenges in keeping up with the rapid advancements in AI technology, sparked by OpenAI's release of ChatGPT in November 2022. Additionally, SearchGPT is set to compete with Microsoft's Bing, which has also integrated OpenAI technology, offering Google increased competition.
OpenAI is currently working on a prototype of SearchGPT , which they describe as temporary. The company plans to integrate the best features of this prototype into ChatGPT in the future. SearchGPT promises to respond quickly and accurately to users' questions, providing up-to-date information and clear links to relevant sources.
JPMorgan is rolling out its in-house chatbot as an AI-based research analyst
JPMorgan Chase, the largest bank in the United States, is rolling out a generative AI product that leverages its version of OpenAI's ChatGPT . According to the Financial Times, this new tool can perform tasks typically handled by research analysts. The AI, known as the LLM Suite, is being introduced to the bank's asset and wealth management division and assists employees with writing, idea generation, and summarizing documents.
The rollout began earlier this year, and approximately 50,000 JPMorgan employees now have access to the LLM Suite. This development follows a similar initiative by rival U.S. investment bank Morgan Stanley, which partnered with OpenAI to introduce a GenAI-powered chatbot for financial advisors last September.
Google Enhances Gemini AI: New Features and Global Expansion
Google is upgrading its Gemini chatbot to compete with rivals like Anthropic and OpenAI. Starting Thursday, Gemini 1.5 Flash will be available in 40 languages across 230 countries. This update introduces significant improvements, including better performance in reasoning and image understanding, with a larger context window of 32,000 tokens for more coherent conversations.
The new model is designed to be more cost-effective and includes features like file uploads from Google Drive and local devices—previously available only in the paid Gemini Advanced tier. To combat AI "hallucinations," Google is adding links to related web content beneath certain responses, enhancing transparency.
