Chris Jung/NurPhoto via Getty Images/Futurism OpenAI is still committed to a whopping $600 billion in AI infrastructure investments over the next four years, a gargantuan spending spree that requires the ChatGPT maker to make massive strides in attracting new users — and, to put it crassly, make far more money than it currently is. The numbers don’t paint a flattering picture, with OpenAI barely crossing the $20 billion annualized revenue line last year. I

Getty / Futurism In theory, using an AI model to churn out a bunch of code for your software company sounds like an awesome idea. A ruthless boss can cut down their workforce and save on paying their salaries and healthcare. Or they can keep the employees, and force them to crank out even more code with an AI. Either way, it’s an efficient cost-cutting dream. But reality is beginning to set in. Businesses are racking up huge AI usage bills they didn’t expe

Getty / Futurism In November, Amazon leaders sent an internal memo to employees, pushing them to use its in-house code generating tool, Kiro, over third-party alternatives from competitors. “While we continue to support existing tools in use today, we do not plan to support additional third party, AI development tools,” the memo read, as quoted by Reuters at the time. “As part of our builder community, you all play a critical role shaping these products an

Tom Williams / CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images; Futurism The two key ingredients to Mark Zuckerberg’s all-in AI push? Money, and a heaping serving of misanthropy. As part of his AI-first regime, Meta has fired thousands of employees while forcing the ones that remain to use the tech as much as possible, speeding them towards burnout. The expectation now is that they run a whole posse of AI agents that work in the background so a single employee can tack

In a sign that those simmering tensions are boiling over into open revolt, some workers are sending clear shots across the bow. “Selfishly, I don’t want my screen scraped because it feels like an invasion of my privacy,” an engineer wrote this week in an internal post seen

After heedlessly embracing AI tech at the expense of their workers, some bosses are now whining to The Wall Street Journal that their companies are being overrun by out-of-control AI agents. One company grappling with the influx is Magnum Ice Cream, the parent company of Ben & Jerry’s. We’re just as stupefied by the idea of an ice cream maker deploying AI bots en masse

Sam Barnes/Web Summit via Sportsfile via Getty Images Employees haven’t been shy about pushing back against AI in the workplace. In a clear disconnect, bosses are often gung-ho about the tech, while their underlings are more aware that it often spits out confident-sounding work that on closer inspection is filled with subtle errors that need to be manually corrected. That divide was on full display when the mayor of Vancouver admitted extensive AI usage to

In 2026, the free version of ChatGPT will display advertising, and the chat interface is officially “dead.” Generative AI is about to change completely, and there will be little left of what we know. The turning point began in January 2026, when Fidji Simo, OpenAI’s head of applications, an
