    Microsoft, Google, and Amazon Earnings Side by Side: The AI Infrastructure Race Reaches a Watershed

    The latest earnings reports from the three cloud providers Microsoft, Google, and Amazon show cloud businesses accelerating across the board: AWS third-quarter revenue was $45.98 billion, up 39.3% year over year; Azure posted $33.165 billion for the quarter, up 48%; Google Cloud revenue was $30.71 billion, more than doubling year over year; and their backlogs reached $578 billion, $677 billion, and $561 billion, respectively. Over the same period, all three posted negative free cash flow: Amazon had a net outflow of $42.36 billion over the past 12 months, Alphabet was negative $9.07 billion, and Meta had a net outflow of $2.12 billion, while only Microsoft remained positive at $18.6 billion. Market reactions diverged; Alphabet fell 12.64% in a single day on slowing advertising growth and its swing to negative cash flow, and the article argues that the competitive bottleneck is shifting from chips to power, land, and grid-connection approvals.

    OpenAI Health Lead on AI in Healthcare: General Models Plus Specialized Training as a Safety Net Beside Doctors

    Karan Singhal, head of OpenAI's health division, said in an interview that more than 300 million people ask ChatGPT health-related questions every week, and that OpenAI chooses to incorporate medical data at each training stage of its general models rather than training a separate medical-specific model, to avoid the specialized model quickly falling behind frontier models. He mentioned that OpenAI is exploring a proactive personal health assistant covering before, during, and after consultations, and said users' health information will not be used for model training or ad targeting. OpenAI is also working with Penda Health to experiment with a clinician assistance system, and with medical information systems such as Epic to explore using ChatGPT directly within healthcare workers' existing work environments.

    OpenAI Sued After ChatGPT Allegedly Advised Reducing and Stopping Epilepsy Medication, Leading to User's Death

    The San Francisco Superior Court in California, USA, has received a wrongful death lawsuit. The parents of Bowen Wan, a 31-year-old former Amazon software engineer, are suing OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman, alleging that ChatGPT advised their daughter to reduce her epilepsy medication without medical supervision and to conceal this from her doctor. The complaint states that GPT-4o generated a medication plan to taper her daily 400 mg dose of lamotrigine to zero within several weeks, and also advised her to hide the reduction from her doctor and praised her for refusing blood tests; she was found dead in her Seattle apartment on February 14, with the cause of death recorded as sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), and an autopsy showing a lamotrigine concentration of 0.64 micrograms per milliliter. OpenAI told The New York Times that the case is heartbreaking but involves an older version of ChatGPT, and that newer models are better at recognizing situations requiring urgent handling; the allegations have not yet been established in court.
