Coca-Cola is using generative AI for its “Holidays Are Coming” Christmas ads again this year. After facing backlash for last year's AI-driven campaign, Coca-Cola once again partnered with Silverside AI and Secret Level studios to create videos with fewer noticeable AI-related errors.

According to Chief Marketing Officer Manolo Arroyo, production and editing ran significantly faster and cheaper than with traditional shoots - about a month instead of a full year. The AI generated over 70,000 video clips, which artists then refined and polished. Coca-Cola says it plans to expand its use of AI in future projects.

Rumors on LinkedIn claim that ChatGPT is no longer allowed to give medical or legal advice, but OpenAI says that’s false. The company says the model’s behavior has not changed. Karan Singhal, OpenAI’s Head of Medical AI, says ChatGPT was never meant to replace expert advice, but can still help users understand complex medical or legal topics.

OpenAI’s usage policy change logs show no recent changes to how sensitive content is handled. The latest update on October 29, 2025, was made to unify the rules across all products. A line warning about giving advice that “requires a license” was already in earlier versions. Older policies included similar notes, just without the licensing reference.

OpenAI has signed a $38 billion multi-year deal with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to run and expand its AI models using AWS infrastructure. The partnership includes access to AWS UltraServers powered by hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GPUs and scalable CPUs. The agreement runs through at least 2026, with extension options. OpenAI's flagship models, such as GPT-5, will remain exclusive to Microsoft Azure and OpenAI's own platform, except for its open-source models.

The AWS deal adds to a string of recent partnerships by OpenAI: with Nvidia and Broadcom for at least 10 gigawatts of compute each, AMD for up to 6 gigawatts, and Oracle for 4.5 gigawatts.

Udio, an AI music startup, recently reached a settlement with Universal Music Group. While the agreement ends an ongoing copyright lawsuit, it also brought sweeping new restrictions that have angered many users. Songs generated with Udio can no longer be downloaded, streamed, or used in personal projects.

On platforms like Reddit and Discord, frustrated users have voiced their anger and announced plans to leave Udio altogether. During an online meeting, Udio CEO Andrew Sanchez offered free credits as compensation but stopped short of promising any policy changes. Looking ahead, Udio and Universal plan to launch a paid music service next year that will feature fully licensed material.
