OpenAI has raised concerns with EU competition regulators about possible harmful behavior by Google, Microsoft and Apple. According to a report by Bloomberg, the start-up, which is currently valued at USD 500 billion, met with the office of EU Competition Commissioner Teresa Ribera on September 24 and spoke about difficulties in competing with established companies.
OpenAI called on the authorities to intervene to prevent large platforms from retaining customers. The company cited particular concerns in areas such as cloud computing and app development. Access to important data is crucial for competition in AI markets, OpenAI said. A person familiar with the matter confirmed that the criticism was directed at Google, Microsoft and Apple. The EU Commission did not wish to comment. The warning is not yet a formal competition complaint.
Google introduces Gemini Enterprise, its answer to Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT Enterprise. The new platform gives companies a central hub to create, manage, and deploy AI agents across existing workflows—no coding required. Employees can chat with Gemini to look up information, analyze data, or automate routine tasks. Out of the box, Google offers its own agents like Deep Research and Code Assist, but companies can also bring in their own or third-party agents.
Gemini Enterprise connects with data from Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, SAP, and BigQuery. There are two plans: "Gemini Business," starting at $21 per user per month for smaller teams, and "Gemini Enterprise Standard/Plus," starting at $30 with extra features for larger organizations.
TSMC beat market expectations in the third quarter of 2025 with a 30 percent jump in revenue. The Taiwanese company reported 989.92 billion Taiwan dollars ($32.47 billion), surpassing the 973.26 billion T$ forecast by analysts surveyed by LSEG.
Soaring demand for artificial intelligence applications, especially from customers like Nvidia and Apple, drove the gains. This growth helped offset weaker chip sales in the consumer electronics sector. Revenue landed in the middle of TSMC's July forecast range of $31.8 billion to $33 billion. Full quarterly results are set to be released on October 16.
The US government has approved the export of Nvidia AI chips worth several billion dollars to the United Arab Emirates, according to Bloomberg. The Commerce Department's approvals are part of a deal signed in May that ties US chip shipments to matching Emirati investments in the US.
US officials say the Gulf federation plans to invest about $1.4 trillion over the next decade. The initiative includes a five-gigawatt data center in Abu Dhabi, with OpenAI among the partners. Some lawmakers in Washington have raised concerns about security risks and growing Chinese influence. The Trump administration sees the deal as a way to keep China out of the Middle East.
OpenAI and Anthropic are considering using investor funds to cover potential multibillion-dollar lawsuits after insurers refused to provide comprehensive coverage for AI-related risks, according to the Financial Times.
People familiar with the matter said OpenAI has secured only about 300 million dollars in insurance for emerging AI risks—a small fraction of what would be needed to handle ongoing lawsuits that could reach into the billions. The company is now weighing a form of self-insurance, drawing from its roughly 60 billion dollars in investor funds.
Anthropic, meanwhile, is already using internal resources to help fund a 1.5 billion dollar settlement. The FT reports that insurers have grown wary of so-called "nuclear verdicts"—unprecedented damage awards against young tech firms developing high-stakes technologies.
