Hub AI in practice

Artificial Intelligence is present in everyday life – from “googling” to facial recognition to vacuum cleaner robots. AI tools are becoming more and more elaborate and support people and companies more effectively in their tasks, such as generating graphics, texting or coding, or interpreting large amounts of data.

What AI tools are there, how do they work, how do they help in our everyday world – and how do they change our lives? These are the questions we address in our Content Hub Artificial Intelligence in Practice.

AI artist Xania Monet has signed a $3 million record deal with Hallwood Media, according to Billboard. The project is led by 31-year-old designer Telisha Jones from Mississippi, who uses the Suno platform to turn her lyrics into music. With Suno currently facing copyright lawsuits from major labels, their subsidiaries held back from making offers.

Monet entered the Billboard charts for the first time last week. Her track "Let Go, Let God" reached No. 21 on the Hot Gospel Songs chart, while another single hit No. 1 on the R&B Digital Song Sales chart. Manager Romel Murphy said around 90 percent of her lyrics draw on personal experiences, and that upcoming projects will include collaborations with human producers.

Hallwood had previously signed another AI artist from Suno back in July.

OpenAI is planning an additional $100 billion in spending on reserve servers over the next five years, according to The Information. By 2030, the company expects to have spent around $350 billion on rented server capacity.

At a Goldman Sachs conference, CFO Sarah Friar explained that OpenAI often has to delay product launches or hold back features because of severe limits on available compute.

The extra servers are meant to protect against sudden spikes in usage and to support future model training. Projections suggest OpenAI will spend about $85 billion per year on servers, nearly half of what Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Oracle combined earned in 2024. Taken together, these investments push the expected cash outflow through 2029 to $115 billion.

The US House of Representatives is running a trial of Microsoft's Copilot AI assistant. Lawmakers and staff now have access to the chatbot, which can connect to emails and OneDrive documents and comes with expanded data and legal protections, Axios reports.

Technical staff have been testing Copilot since June. This fall, leadership offices and additional staff will join the pilot. Up to 6,000 one-year licenses are expected to be distributed.

House Speaker Mike Johnson announced the rollout at the "Congressional Hackathon," alongside Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. The two had already launched a bipartisan AI working group.

At the same time, administrators are reviewing offers from other vendors, including ChatGPT Enterprise, Claude, Gemini, and USAi. More details about Microsoft's role in Congress are expected in the coming months.
