OpenAI is Working on X-like Social Media Network
OpenAI is reportedly developing a social network similar to X—not just to compete with Meta, Google, and xAI's Grok, but also to serve as a source of data.
Details:
The project is still in its early stages, but there’s an internal prototype focused on ChatGPT’s image generation that includes a social feed.
The report states that it’s not yet clear whether OpenAI plans to launch the social network as a standalone app or integrate it into the ChatGPT app.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has reportedly been privately seeking feedback from outsiders about the social network.
Meanwhile, the potential move could further escalate tensions between Altman and billionaire Elon Musk, as the two are set to begin a jury trial in the spring of next year.
Though it remains uncertain whether the early-stage social media project will ever publicly launch, the move could give OpenAI access to unique, real-time data — a competitive advantage that X and Meta already have by using public content from their platforms to train their AI models.

You’ve heard the hype. Now it’s time for results
After two years of siloed experiments, proofs of concept that fail to scale, and disappointing ROI, most enterprises are stuck. AI isn't transforming their organizations — it’s adding complexity, friction, and frustration.
But Writer customers are seeing a positive impact across their companies. Our end-to-end approach is delivering adoption and ROI at scale. Now, we’re applying that same platform and technology to bring agentic AI to the enterprise.
This isn’t just another hype train that doesn’t deliver. The AI you were promised is finally here — and it’s going to change the way enterprises operate.
See real agentic workflows in action, hear success stories from our beta testers, and learn how to align your IT and business teams.

Anthropic Adds Research Tool, Google Workspace Integration to Claude
Anthropic today updated its Claude chatbot with two major features: a new Research tool that generates highly detailed answers to user questions, and a new integration with Google Workspace.
Details:
Claude can now connect directly to your Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Docs, incorporating information from these into prompt responses.
It can 'pull together meeting notes from last week, identify action items from follow-up email threads, and search relevant documents for additional context.'
When the new Research tool is enabled, Claude runs not just one, but 'multiple searches that build on each other' to find information, sifting through both internal data, such as business documents, and the public web.
After assembling the retrieved information into a prompt response, Research adds citations to help users verify the output.
The Research function is now in early beta for Max, Team, and Enterprise plans in the U.S., Japan, and Brazil, while the Google Workspace integration is in beta for all paid users.

In Gemini, Veo 2 can create eight-second video clips at 720p resolution, though there is a limit to how many videos subscribers can create each month. Additionally, Google One AI Premium subscribers now have access to Veo 2 generation in Whisk, with the new “Whisk Animate” feature.
OpenAI is adding a new image library to ChatGPT to make it easier to access your AI-generated images. It’s rolling out to all free, plus, and pro users on both mobile and web.
Notion pitches it as: ‘The inbox that organizes itself, drafts emails, and schedules meetings any way you’d like,’ with AI being a big part of the Notion Mail experience.
The app is available now on web and Mac, and is in testing for iOS.
According to Bloomberg, Anthropic is preparing to introduce a new 'voice mode' feature to rival OpenAI’s Advanced Voice Mode. The company plans to roll out three English-language voices—Airy, Mellow, and Buttery—'as soon as this month.'
The company announced that they have appointed Dolores Huerta, Monica Lozano, Dr. Robert K. Ross, and Jack Oliver as advisors to their Nonprofit Commission. They will assist OpenAI’s board in directing community engagement processes, drawing insights from people and organizations involved in health, science, education, and public services.
