The Rundown: Microsoft just dropped an open-source version of ChatGPT tailored for business use cases. Dubbed ‘Azure ChatGPT’, it promises more control and privacy compared to the public model.
Key points:
Azure allows companies to run ChatGPT privately on their own networks, touting built-in data isolation from OpenAI.
The model connects to internal data services and sources, and is available on GitHub to install and deploy.
It aims to boost productivity through code editing, task automation, and more — while offering businesses a more secure way to share their data with AI.
Why it matters: While ChatGPT mania swirls, Microsoft smartly launched an enterprise spin-off that will fill a serious hunger in the market. By addressing security concerns, Azure makes it easier (and presumably safer) for companies to tap AI's benefits.

The Rundown: Amazon is tapping into generative AI to create handy highlights that synthesize key points from customer reviews — helping shoppers quickly gauge product sentiment.
The details:
New AI highlights give a snapshot of product features and opinions from reviews.
The feature is part of ongoing efforts to improve utility of 125M+ reviews from shoppers.
It uses only trusted reviews from verified purchases, and Amazon continues to police fake submissions with both AI and human efforts.
Our thoughts: Amazon built an empire on customer reviews, so it's smart to keep improving its utility with AI — and streamlining a user’s shopping process is always a positive outcome. But keeping reviews legit amid AI's rise will remain an ongoing battle.

AI TRAINING
Want to adapt content to fit different platforms and audiences? ChatGPT's versatile output can help you reshape work in a variety of formats.
Step 1: Begin with your existing piece of content — for this example, we used this prompt: "Introducing our new AI-powered analytics tool, designed to optimize business workflows."
Step 2: Ask ChatGPT to adapt this content into various styles. Here are some prompts you can use:
"Design a catchy slogan for marketing campaigns."
"Develop a concise elevator pitch for potential investors."
"Create a FAQ section for customer inquiries."
While the responses may be limited to the amount of content you provide, ChatGPT can often get you started with the building blocks.
⭐️ Bonus tip: Gauge how the responses perform, and input results back into ChatGPT to refine future content. Example: "We received feedback that the product spec sheet was too technical. How can we simplify it?"
QUICK HITS
Robomart is building AI-powered vehicles that roll up like an Uber — stocked with groceries and restaurant items. Customers can "store-hail" to shop from over 300 items without apps or lines. It launches in 2025 for supermarkets — and brands like Ben & Jerry’s are already using the beta version.
AI startup Anthropic just scored another major funding raise, securing $100M from South Korean phone giant, SK Telecom. The cash flood will reportedly fuel a new multilingual AI bot for the global phone biz, in addition to ramping up its Claude chatbot for the Korean market.
The AI skills race has salaries soaring — with companies like Netflix offering total comp nearing a whopping $900K for top roles. With demand far outpacing supply for ML experts, AI engineers, and data scientists, firms are boosting pay to beat out rivals.
