- OpenAI and AMD agreed to supply six gigawatts of GPU processing over multiple years with initial deployments beginning in the second half of 2026 and OpenAI holding an option to buy up to 160 million AMD shares contingent on deployment and performance milestones.
- The AMD pact follows a separately reported large supply and capital arrangement with Nvidia, underscoring OpenAI’s strategy to diversify and scale access to advanced chips.
- At DevDay in San Francisco, OpenAI introduced ChatGPT integrations that let users invoke services like Spotify, Canva, Zillow, Expedia, Booking, Coursera and Figma from within chats, with more apps promised and EU availability not yet enabled.
- OpenAI reported about 800 million weekly active ChatGPT users and four million developers building on its tools, figures that align with external surveys showing widespread developer adoption of ChatGPT for daily work.
- OpenAI’s GDPval study evaluated AI against humans on 1,320 tasks across nine sectors, listing 44 occupations with high task-level vulnerability; Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.1 outperformed humans in 47.6% of tests and OpenAI’s GPT5-high in 38.8%, with the company cautioning the results assess tasks rather than predict immediate layoffs.
