LehreCheck launched as a free smartphone platform that matches Tyrolean teenagers to apprenticeships and training companies using anonymous tests and apprenticeship data. It went live in summer 2026 with three tests and a matching step against more than 350 apprenticeship occupations. The platform adds AI-assisted organization of occupation data and planned paid features for companies, but business functions currently sit behind a “coming soon” and waitlist.

Entourage closed its second early-stage venture fund after raising €100 million, exceeding an initial €75 million target quickly. The fund is set to invest about 25 companies at pre-seed and seed stages with initial checks of €1 million to €5 million.

Google’s “Google Search & other” share of Alphabet’s revenue fell below half for the first time, even as total revenue rose. Search generated $63.4 billion, or 49.7% of the $127.6 billion third-quarter revenue. Alphabet’s results shift emphasis toward Google Cloud, which more than doubled to $30.7 billion and is now nearly a quarter of revenue, while search growth slowed.

Hong Kong overtook Switzerland as the top location for managing more cross-border wealth, based on a London investment bank study. In 2025, Hong Kong held $2.95 trillion of cross-border wealth, slightly above Switzerland’s $2.94 trillion. The shift is expected to widen, while private banks face falling margins and more use of AI to cut costs, plus weaker loyalty as wealthy clients spread assets across more firms.

NVIDIA released Nemotron 3.5 Transcribe, an open-weights speech language model for transcription that can generate transcripts with speaker information, timestamps, and translation. It uses about 4.3B active parameters with a 1-hour audio limit per request. Developers can swap out separate ASR, diarization, and alignment tools by using one model instead, though the release is mainly for offline use and shows weaker Mandarin meeting accuracy.

Amazon issued revised software engineering guidelines warning that simply using more AI doesn’t always improve work quality. It said token and lines-of-code counting are “deeply flawed,” and turning token metrics into targets can increase costs and complexity. As a result, engineers are told to document when AI tooling doesn’t help, while managers compare 10th- and 90th-percentile AI users to decide if outputs are improving.

Google Cloud revenue rose to 30.7 billion dollars in Alphabet’s third quarter, but Alphabet’s shares fell after-hours by more than 11% despite the cloud result. Revenue was 31.0 billion dollars year-over-year and free cash flow stayed negative at -9.1 billion dollars as investors focused on broader business weakness and deep spending for AI. Alphabet is increasing capital spending toward 200 billion dollars in 2026 and is facing investor pressure over cash-flow strain rather than cloud demand.

Microsoft reported strong Azure growth alongside continued high spending to scale its AI services. CapEx spending is expected to reach about $170 billion in calendar-year 2026, with more than $50 billion in the current quarter. As a result, investors get further evidence of demand exceeding supply, while Microsoft’s higher capex and slightly lower operating margins signal tighter pressure on near-term profitability.

Microsoft reported profit of more than $36.6bn for the three months to the end of September, shortly after announcing layoffs of more than a quarter of its workforce. It said it will offer voluntary buyouts to around 60,000 workers. The result is further cost-cutting alongside continued billions in AI infrastructure spending, with investors watching whether that spending is sustainable.

29 October 2026
The story behind today’s AI news is less about smarter models and more about who pays the power bill. Microsoft is projecting calendar-year 2026 capex of about $170 billion, with more than $50 billion expected in the current quarter, even as it tries to keep Azure growth climbing. The company also posted $36.6 billion in profit for the three months ending September 30, but that figure lands on the heels of layoffs and voluntary buyouts for roughly 60,000 workers—an effort to fund infrastructure without turning the profit story into a permanent casualty.
