▼ + stars: | 2024-08-10 | by ( Magdalena Petrova | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

OpenAI, the company behind the ChatGPT chatbot, was founded in 2015 by a number of researchers, academics and entrepreneurs, including Sam Altman, Greg Brockman and Elon Musk. At the time, OpenAI said Musk left to avoid a conflict of interest with his other company, Tesla , which was becoming increasingly focused on AI. In the years since, OpenAI has grown into one of the prominent leaders in AI development. OpenAI now reportedly generates annual revenue of $3.4 billion, and has notable customers, including PwC, Moderna and Estée Lauder. Microsoft has invested about $13 billion into the AI startup.

☆ Meet Sunny Choi, the Estée Lauder director who left corporate America to become an Olympic breaker
▼ + stars: | 2024-08-07 | by ( Mykenna Maniece | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +2 min

Choi continued breaking while navigating corporate America. Olympics.com reported that breakers' moves fall into three elements: top rock, down rock, and freezes. Top rock refers to moves done while standing, such as a Crossover Step or an Outlaw Two-Step, while down rock refers to the moves done on the floor that we commonly associate with this style of dance. "It adds this element of surprise because the thing is, we don't even know what's going to happen, so how could the audience know what's going to happen?" Choi said breaking is also different from other sports because it doesn't have "a traditional history of having coaches."

☆ Cramer says exposure to China is hurting some stocks right now
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-30 | by ( Julie Coleman | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Tuesday suggested that the market is being brought down by some companies with business in China. "If you own stock in a company that expanded heavily into China, it's being killed right now," he said. But he said companies that rely on China for growth are having a particularly tough time on the market. He listed several companies whose business in China is lagging, including Procter & Gamble , Estee Lauder , Nike and Starbucks . According to Cramer, a reason smaller cap stocks are doing well is because, for the most part, they don't do a lot of business with China.
