ChatGPT gains full enterprise insights with ‘Company Knowledge’

Google just showed what the following era of computation might seem like.

In its latest Nature paper, Google Quantum AI revealed the Willow processor, a 105-qubit machine that finally delivered a verifiable quantum advantage. Not a marketing stunt. Not a simulation. An actual, repeatable leap.

Using an algorithm called Quantum Echoes, Willow ran molecular simulations 13,000 times faster than Frontier, the world’s strongest supercomputer. And since its results could be independently checked, this marks the primary time quantum computing has crossed from theory to testable reality. With an error rate of just 0.1%, Willow hints at a wholly latest class of scalable, self-correcting quantum systems, the sort that might someday design latest drugs, materials, and even energy solutions.

Then there’s VISTA, Google AI’s latest self-improving text-to-video agent. It plans scenes, runs tournaments between its own outputs, critiques itself across visual, audio, and contextual layers, then rewrites its prompts for an additional round. No retraining, no human intervention. Just recursive evolution at inference time. In tests, it won 60% of head-to-heads and earned a 66% human preference rating.

Rounding it out, Google is plugging Gemini deeper into Google Earth. The brand new Geospatial Reasoning framework connects Earth’s AI models for weather, satellite imagery, and population data so users can ask complex questions like “Which areas are most liable to flooding next season?” or “Find algae blooms near drinking water supplies.” Trusted testers may even mix in their very own datasets for more detailed evaluation. Gemini support is rolling out to Google Earth Pro and Ultra users within the US. Read more.

Company knowledge in ChatGPT is now live, letting users pull and synthesize data from Slack, Google Drive, GitHub, SharePoint, Gmail, HubSpot, and more. Built on a GPT‑5 variant tuned for multi-source reasoning, it delivers context-aware, citation-backed insights, combining structured and unstructured data.

Enterprise controls include role-based access, SSO, SCIM, IP allowlisting, and full audit logs for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance. Admins can manage which connectors are energetic, while users authenticate individual apps to get verified information – all in a single interface.

Shared Projects can be expanding to Free, Plus, and Pro users, enabling teams to collaborate on shared chats, files, and directions inside a single workspace, streamlining workflows and boosting coordination.

On the MacOS front, OpenAI also acquired Software Applications Incorporated, creator of Sky, a Mac automation tool. Sky’s agentic AI can interpret screen content and act across apps. OpenAI plans to integrate Sky into ChatGPT for advanced system-level tasks, from coding to cross-app automation, giving macOS users AI-driven workflow control and positioning OpenAI ahead of Apple’s 2026 Siri overhaul.

Sora is adding pet and object “cameos,” clip-stitching video tools, and social channels for schools and corporations, with Android support coming soon.

Meanwhile, OpenAI has flagged security risks in its latest browser, ChatGPT Atlas, specifically prompt injection attacks. The browser now includes logged out mode, watch mode, overlapping guardrails, and model-level defenses, complemented by ongoing monitoring and rapid response systems to counter emerging threats.

Finally, OpenAI, Oracle, and Vantage are constructing the $15B Lighthouse AI campus in Wisconsin as a part of the Stargate initiative, delivering 4.5 gigawatts of IT capability, 4,000+ construction jobs, and over 1,000 everlasting positions to power ChatGPT, Copilot, and future AI workloads. Read more.

Two days after OpenAI launched its ChatGPT Atlas browser, Microsoft followed with a serious Copilot update that ties its AI system across Edge, Windows, and core productivity apps. Copilot is now positioned as Microsoft’s unified automation and reasoning layer, built to handle search, tasks, collaboration, and inventive work from one place.

Inside Edge, Copilot Mode has evolved right into a full AI browser. It might probably access open tabs with permission, summarize pages, compare information, fill forms, and perform actions reminiscent of booking hotels or unsubscribing from newsletters. Latest tools called Actions and Journeys let the AI perform in-browser tasks and track related browsing sessions, allowing it to keep up context across multiple visits.

A brand new animated companion named Mico gives Copilot a visible identity across Windows, Edge, and mobile. Mico reacts to voice and expression, and even has an Easter egg that turns it into ‘Clippy’ when tapped repeatedly. Copilot also gains Real Talk, a conversational mode that responds in a more direct, grounded tone, and Learn Live, a guided tutor for interactive explanations.

Copilot now supports group chats for as much as 32 people, connects to Gmail, OneDrive, and Calendar, and offers you control over what it remembers. Even Paint gets an AI-powered Restyle tool that may change a picture’s artistic style in seconds. Microsoft is not any longer chasing one other app launch, it’s constructing the operating system of attention. Read more.

Anthropic has rolled out Claude Memory for Pro and Max subscribers, giving the chatbot the power to retain project context, user preferences, and workflow details across conversations. Each project gets its own isolated memory space to forestall data crossover, and users can view, edit, or delete any stored information. An incognito mode disables memory entirely, and users may even import or export memories from other chatbots like ChatGPT or Gemini – no lock-in.

To power its growing models, Anthropic inked a multibillion-dollar cope with Google for access to up to 1 million Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), representing a couple of gigawatt of compute capability set to come back online in 2026. The partnership leverages the TPUs’ price-performance efficiency to speed up Claude’s next training cycles.

CEO Dario Amodei also publicly backed President Trump’s AI Motion Plan, citing a $200 million defense contract and Anthropic’s bipartisan approach to AI governance, while defending support for California’s AI transparency bill. Read more.
