Is it OK for an AI company to exclude the cost of training its AI models when it reports earnings? Related storiesFor an AI company like OpenAI, training models will be an ongoing process. The world is constantly evolving, and new data is being generated, which will have to be incorporated into AI models' understanding. Let's call it "AI adjusted earnings" for an AI company. They are a private company," McKenna said.

Valued at $4 billion in 2021, Cerebras is reportedly seeking to roughly double that in its IPO. The customer, G42, is backed by Microsoft , and it's entirely responsible for the $1.43 billion purchase commitment. G42 can pick up $500 million more in Cerebras shares if it commits to spend $5 billion on the company's computing clusters. The major Wall Street banks, for their part, are finding other ways to play in the burgeoning AI infrastructure market.

Bret Taylor, board chairman of OpenAI, joined CNBC's Squawk on the Street Thursday to discuss his artificial intelligence startup Sierra. Taylor co-founded Sierra in March of 2023, and it aims to help companies build AI agents that can interface directly with their customers. AI agents vary in their complexity, but they can generally help users answer questions, automate processes and perform specific tasks, according to the company's website. Sierra is already valued at around $4 billion, and Taylor said he is excited to build an "enduring company." Taylor joined OpenAI's board after the company's CEO Sam Altman was briefly ousted last fall.

Lawyers for The New York Times are poring through ChatGPT's source code and training material. It is there to be inspected by lawyers for The New York Times. The Times' lawyers can share their notes with up to five outside consultants to help them understand what the code does. That text includes stories from The New York Times, articles from other publications, and an untold number of copyrighted books. OpenAI similarly used high-quality, well-researched, well-written, and fact-based New York Times articles to make ChatGPT so impressive, the Times argues.

AdvertisementTwo years after OpenAI's ChatGPT and other chatbots launched, the advertising community's excitement over generative AI has come down to earth. The shift was evident at New York's Advertising Week, a four-day gathering this week that organizers expected 17,000 to attend. Last year, a Salesforce survey showed about three-quarters of marketers were or planned to use generative AI. Though enthusiasm about AI was tempered in the industry at this year's Advertising Week, there wasn't a widespread abandonment of the tech. Adtech company LiveRamp announced a pair of AI partnerships to help marketers find the right AI company for a given problem.

OpenAI is increasingly becoming a platform of choice for cyber actors looking to influence democratic elections across the globe. The threats ranged from AI-generated website articles to social media posts by fake accounts. The social media content related mostly to elections in the U.S. and Rwanda, and to a lesser extent, elections in India and the EU, OpenAI said. And in May, an Israeli company used ChatGPT to generate social media comments about elections in India. The company said that while most social media posts it identified received few likes or shares, some real people did reply to the AI-generated posts.

Nvidia stock climbed 4% on Tuesday, extending its rally to 14% in five days. The chipmaker's market value soared by $400 billion — more than Costco is worth. Its $400 billion increase in value within a week is worth underscoring. Costco, which generated $254 billion of revenue and $7.4 billion of net income last year, is worth less than that. There's been no greater beneficiary than founder and CEO Jensen Huang, whose net worth has ballooned from about $14 billion to $106 billion in under two years.

Walter Isaacson said Elon Musk's AI motives likely stem from early ambitions inspired by sci-fi themes. Isaacson said Musk told him he wanted to start an AI company because he didn't trust Sam Altman. "He's telling me, 'I'm gonna start from scratch an AI company 'cause I don't trust Sam Altman,'" Isaacson recalled in an interview with CNBC's Squawk Box published Friday. The AI company competes directly with OpenAI, which he helped found and fund before a reported falling out. Isaacson, Musk, and xAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.

AI expert Gary Marcus says OpenAI may be forced to become a surveillance company to make money. AI expert Gary Marcus says the company shaping the global AI arms race is on the cusp of turning what Orwell imagined into reality. "What they're going to be pressed to do is become a surveillance company." But Marcus thinks the company won't be able to earn enough money to support its valuation that way because the technology isn't advanced enough. Marcus suspects that OpenAI will eventually tap into this potential income stream and become a powerful surveillance company.

There's an important stipulation on OpenAI's historic $6.6 billion funding round. AdvertisementOpenAI's historically large $6.6 billion funding round is bringing in checks from some of the biggest technology and venture capital investors.

But "if there's disagreement within the entity, then it's much harder for the regulators to approve it," he said.
