Google unveils Gemini Enterprise AI platform to expand corporate reach

/in /tarafından

Google, part of Alphabet, has launched Gemini Enterprise, a new AI platform for business clients designed to bring advanced artificial intelligence capabilities to the workplace. The move marks the company’s most significant push yet to compete with Microsoft, OpenAI, and Anthropic in the fast-growing enterprise AI sector.

Powered by Google’s most advanced Gemini AI models, the platform enables employees to converse directly with company data, documents, and applications, allowing faster decision-making and research. It offers both pre-built AI agents for common tasks — like data analysis and deep research — and tools for companies to build custom agents tailored to their operations.

Google said it has already signed major clients for Gemini Enterprise, including Gap, Figma, and Klarna, as the platform builds on the company’s existing Google Workspace suite, which integrates AI features across apps like Gmail, Docs, and Sheets.

The launch comes amid intensifying competition among tech giants seeking to monetize AI through enterprise subscriptions and workplace automation. Analysts view Gemini Enterprise as Google’s next step in turning its AI research into scalable business tools.

OpenAI and Anthropic may use investor funds to settle AI copyright lawsuits – FT

/in /tarafından

OpenAI and Anthropic are reportedly considering using investor funds to help cover potential multibillion-dollar settlements linked to ongoing AI copyright lawsuits, according to the Financial Times. Several lawsuits filed by authors, publishers, and media companies accuse major tech firms — including OpenAI, Microsoft, and Meta — of using copyrighted materials without permission to train their AI models.

The report said OpenAI has arranged insurance coverage of up to $300 million through Aon for emerging AI-related risks, though some sources claimed the actual figure is “significantly lower.” Experts said such coverage is still far short of the amount needed to offset massive legal liabilities.

Aon’s head of cyber risk, Kevin Kalinich, told the FT that the insurance industry currently lacks “enough capacity” to adequately protect AI model providers. As a result, OpenAI has discussed self-insurance options, including setting up a captive fund to ringfence investor capital against potential future claims.

Anthropic, meanwhile, is also using internal funds to prepare for possible settlements. Last month, a U.S. federal judge preliminarily approved a $1.5 billion class-action settlement involving authors’ copyright claims against Anthropic.

Neither company has publicly commented on the report, and Reuters could not independently verify the details. The cases highlight the growing legal and financial challenges facing leading AI developers as governments and creators push back on data use practices.

Anthropic to open first India office in 2026 amid AI boom

Anthropic, the artificial intelligence company backed by Google and Amazon, announced plans to open its first office in India next year as demand for AI tools accelerates across the country.

The expansion marks a major step in Anthropic’s global growth, with India already standing as its second-largest market for the Claude chatbot, which rivals OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Claude is popular among developers for its strong coding capabilities and multilingual features.

The new office will be located in Bengaluru, India’s leading technology hub, and operations are set to begin in early 2026. CEO Dario Amodei will visit India this week to meet with government officials and business partners, the company said.

India’s rapidly growing tech ecosystem — fueled by a billion internet users, rising corporate investment, and a strong talent base — has drawn top AI firms into competition. OpenAI, backed by Microsoft, is also preparing to open its first Indian office in New Delhi later this year.
