Corporate communications teams need to sharpen their AI skills. That's the takeaway from a new analysis by Barron's, which shows just how much ChatGPT is already reshaping corporate language. Since 2024, the telltale AI phrase "It's not just a ___, it's a ___" has been showing up everywhere in press releases, shareholder letters, and analyst calls from major US companies.

This analysis is not just a study—it is a wake-up call for corporate communications.

ChatGPT, 2026

According to job listings spotted by Data Center Dynamics, Anthropic is hiring data center contract specialists in Europe and Australia. It's the first time the AI company is building a dedicated data center team for locations outside the United States. Until now, Anthropic had worked exclusively with cloud providers.

The European position is based in London and covers multiple countries, including the major data center hubs Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin, as well as emerging markets in Northern and Southern Europe. The Australian role is focused on Sydney.

The move comes as competitor OpenAI has put its Stargate projects in the UK and Norway on hold. Anthropic still maintains large cloud contracts with Google, AWS, and Microsoft - all three of which are also investors in the company. Alongside these partnerships, Anthropic is planning its own $50 billion US data centers.

Jeff Bezos is about to close a $10 billion funding round for his AI lab codenamed "Project Prometheus," the Financial Times reports. The company is valued at $38 billion. JPMorgan and BlackRock are among the investors.

On top of that, Prometheus is planning a holding company to acquire businesses that could be transformed by its AI technology. The lab recently poached Kyle Kosic, co-founder of xAI. The round started in November at $6.2 billion and was expanded due to high demand, according to the FT.

Read full article about: OpenAI's Codex now watches your screen to remember what you're working on

OpenAI rolled out Chronicle for its Codex app. The feature uses screen recordings to build memories Codex taps into as context for future tasks, so it knows what users are referring to, which tools they're using, and what projects they're working on without a fresh explanation each time.

Chronicle runs in the background, with AI agents turning recordings into summaries saved locally as Markdown files. The recordings are kept temporarily and, per OpenAI, deleted after six hours.

It's launching as an opt-in preview for ChatGPT Pro subscribers on macOS, but isn't available in the EU, UK, or Switzerland. Users enable it in Codex settings under "Personalization" by turning on "Memories" and then "Chronicle," and granting macOS screen recording and accessibility permissions.

OpenAI warns that Chronicle burns through rate limits quickly, raises the risk of prompt injection attacks—malicious instructions smuggled in through displayed websites—and stores memories unencrypted on the device.
