NEWS UPDATES
Goldman Sachs Rolls Out In-House AI Assistant
Goldman Sachs has launched a firmwide AI assistant for internal use, according to a memo reviewed by Reuters. Built in-house, the assistant is being used for tasks like meeting summaries and document search, and is now deployed across all divisions.
If you're in finance or a legacy enterprise, this signals that in-house AI tools are no longer experimental. It's a move toward owning workflows, improving compliance, and reducing vendor dependency.
Perplexity Co-Founder Launches $100M AI Research Fund
Databricks’ Ali Ghodsi and Perplexity co-founder Aravind Srinivas are backing a $100M fund to support independent AI researchers. The move comes amid rising concerns about Big Tech consolidation in AI innovation.
Expect more open research and independent tooling to emerge. Enterprise tech teams may benefit from diversifying beyond closed ecosystems like OpenAI or Anthropic.
Grok May Soon Edit Spreadsheets
Code found in Grok’s Android app suggests it could soon offer spreadsheet-editing features, allowing users to clean, analyze, and modify sheets directly with AI.
If your teams rely on spreadsheets for reporting or forecasting, Grok’s move could reduce repetitive work and make smart assistance more hands-on than passive.
