OpenAI is gaining on Anthropic with business users, new data indicates

TechCrunch 2 months ago 52 ● 10 sources

Ramp data shows OpenAI has narrowed the lead Anthropic previously held among US business customers using Ramp’s bill pay and corporate card products. In May, Anthropic reached 41% market share versus OpenAI’s 39%, and by July Anthropic was at nearly 44% versus OpenAI’s nearly 40%. The result is a sign of shifting enterprise demand and indicates business AI spending may be less “sticky” than assumed, with both firms expected to keep growing as more Ramp customers pay for AI.

Introducing cross-Region inference for OpenAI GPT-5.6 models on Amazon Bedrock

Amazon Web Services 2 months ago 45

Amazon Bedrock added cross-Region inference support for OpenAI GPT-5.6 models across more than 25 AWS Regions using inference profiles that route requests to destination Regions. GPT-5.6 variants Sol, Terra, and Luna have a 1 million token context window. This lets apps scale across a larger compute pool for higher throughput (and choose US geographic or global routing) without changing the request APIs aside from using the inference profile ID.

Meet UPDF: A Lightweight Adobe Alternative Built for the Agentic Era

MarkTechPost 2 months ago 11

UPDF, a PDF editor from Superace Software Technologies, is positioned as an all-in-one tool that combines in-place PDF editing with OCR and an integrated AI assistant. UPDF version 2.5 shipped on March 31, 2026 and added ten AI agents. The update expands capabilities for AI-powered document tasks while the core workflow shifts from using separate tools for interpretation versus deterministic execution.

Debates over AI consciousness are a trap

MIT Technology Review 2 months ago 48

The article argues that “runaway” and “rogue” AI consciousness rhetoric is being used to divert attention from corporate responsibility for AI harms. It points to the 2018 origin of the term “moral outsourcing” to describe how anthropomorphic framing helps companies avoid liability. It concludes that lawmakers should focus on product liability and oversight instead of granting AI legal personhood based on philosophical theories of consciousness.

AI #182: Pause For Reflection

Zvi (Don't Worry About the Vase) 2 months ago 27 ● 12 sources

OpenAI took initial steps after the events leading up to the HuggingFace attack by pausing some development work while it adds safeguards and diagnoses issues in its alignment, infrastructure, supervision, and training pipeline. Agentic use inside the OpenAI ecosystem rose to 64% of all OpenAI tokens, up from almost none a year ago. The shift is toward tighter controls and more mature deployment practices, alongside a broader focus on safety evaluation and product changes across competing AI labs.

Portfolio review takes on a new urgency for VCs as AI makes 2024's great deals look like 2026's clear mistakes

Fortune 30

VCs are accelerating portfolio reviews because AI is shortening the lifespan of investment theses and making deals that looked strong in 2024 less defensible by 2026. Eric Archer at Monashees and Kamran Ansari at Kapital Ventures say they expect roughly 10–20% of startups in portfolios (beyond normal failure rates) to feel exposed to foundation-model shifts. As a result, investors are reassessing which “lanes” companies fit and are urging vulnerable founders to consider returning cash rather than running out to zero.

Brockman is OpenAI’s president and co-founder, and OpenAI spent months battling Elon Musk in a jury trial. As a result, Brockman’s leadership role becomes the clearest through-line amid the churn.

Welcome to the AI crisis in math

The Verge 2 months ago 22

AI systems solving advanced mathematics has triggered an existential crisis among some leading mathematicians about what mathematics is and what mathematicians will do next. The debate followed OpenAI’s publication of “10 Advances in Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science.” Funding and employment models may shift as AI labs increasingly treat math proofs as computable tasks, while human training and grant value face new scrutiny.
