    The AI payoff has reached seven companies and skipped the rest of corporate America

    Twice this week I asked who pays for AI. On Saturday Torsten Slok, chief economist at investment giant Apollo, answered the other question, who gets paid. Revenue per employee and profit margins are rising at the seven biggest tech companies and flat across the rest of the S&P 500, and he finds no trace of AI in America's productivity figures. Mainstream companies book AI as a cost, while the heavy spenders are start-ups burning venture money. The economist Brad DeLong accepts the charts and disputes what they mean, since customers and new companies capture gains shareholders never see. Most of us buy AI rather than sell it, and Slok is describing our income statements.

    Texas sues OpenAI and Altman personally and wants a court to approve every new model

    Ten states want a court to tell OpenAI how to run ChatGPT, and on Friday Texas asked for the most. Attorney General Ken Paxton sued OpenAI and Sam Altman, its chief executive, personally, claiming ChatGPT addicted minors, encouraged suicides and aided mass shooters, and that OpenAI lied about safeguards. He wants minors barred and each new model approved by a court-appointed evaluator before release, a remedy without precedent. Paxton is running for the Senate with Elon Musk as his biggest donor, and Texas has left Musk's rival chatbot Grok alone. OpenAI says governments should set safety standards. A judge deciding when a model may be released would slow every company building on it, ours included.

    Britain spends six hundred million pounds on AI and OpenAI and Anthropic chip in with credits

    While Denmark argues over whether to allow data centres, Britain's Chancellor John Healey spent Saturday previewing Wednesday's Budget with over six hundred million pounds for AI. Most of the British money goes to security, cyber defences run by AI and a new lab to catch engineered pathogens. What stuck with me is that most of the lab's headline funding is credits to use OpenAI's and Anthropic's models, so Britain's sovereign biosecurity will run on American software. Two days after Barclays blamed its job cuts on AI, the jobs line is the smallest item, ten million a year to study what AI does to work. Security gets the money, workers get a study.

    OpenAI wins Replit with a thirty per cent discount after Anthropic pulls its own

    A week ago I wrote that Replit, which builds software from a typed description, had made OpenAI its default over Anthropic. The Information, a news site, reports the price. OpenAI won a contract worth over a hundred million dollars a year with a discount of more than thirty per cent, after Anthropic refused to extend its discount unless Replit committed to spend more. It also says both AI companies now write clauses requiring big customers to send most of their AI budget to one supplier. None of the three companies has confirmed the figures. The AI companies have started haggling like any other software supplier, so the price on your contract is an opening bid.

    China's first AI-generated feature film opened to near-empty cinemas

    China's cinemas held the first test of AI film-making, and the audience stayed home. Bona Film Group, a Chinese studio, opened China's first AI-generated film on Friday, with AI actors, voices and sets. AFP, the news agency, counted four people at its screening, and the film earned back a sliver of its budget on opening day. AI-made short dramas drew two hundred billion views on Douyin, the Chinese TikTok, and its owner ByteDance has folded its AI short-drama app into a bigger one, because the AI engine behind them earns more sold to other companies. We pay for AI video in short bites on a phone, and the model makers get paid either way.
