AMD's shares surge on deal to supply AI chips to OpenAI United States chipmaker AMD will supply artificial intelligence chips to OpenAI in a multi-year deal that would bring in tens of billions of dollars in annual revenue and give the ChatGPT creator the option to buy up to roughly 10 percent of the company. Shares of the chipmaker surged more than 34 percent on Monday when the deal was announced, putting them on track for their biggest one-day gain in more than nine years and adding roughly $80bn to the company's market value. "We view this deal as certainly transformative, not just for AMD, but for the dynamics of the industry," AMD executive vice president Forrest Norrod told the Reuters news agency. The agreement closely ties the startup at the centre of the AI boom to AMD, one of the strongest rivals of Nvidia, which recently agreed to make substantial investments in OpenAI. Analysts said it was a significant vote of confidence in AMD's AI chips and software but is unlikely to dent Nvidia's dominance, as the market leader continues to sell every AI chip it can make.

At OpenAI's Developer Day, CEO Sam Altman showed off apps that run entirely inside the chat window--a new effort to turn ChatGPT into a platform. On Monday, OpenAI unveiled a new way to embed third-party apps directly into ChatGPT. At the company's annual developer conference in San Francisco, CEO Sam Altman said the move would "enable a new generation of apps that are adaptive, interactive, and personalized, that you can chat with." Starting today, some developers will be able to use a preview version of a new Apps software development kit (SDK) to build apps within ChatGPT using open standards. The ability to distribute these apps is currently limited to a handful of big partners.

After sending out more than 100 applications, I learned the robots are no longer satisfied with taking our jobs--they also want to prevent us from getting new ones. I got laid off five months ago. Every morning I drink a pot of coffee while I write cover letters, tweak my résumé, and submit job applications into the abyss, knowing they will likely never be seen by human eyes--only crawled by the cold, lifeless algorithms of an artificial intelligence. I feel like General Zod from, floating off into space trapped inside a two-dimensional phantom zone, screaming in silence about my job qualifications and core competencies. The job market is a mess.
