    US tech giants' $750 billion AI investment faces challenges as core business growth slows

    According to Bloomberg, the advertising, consumer and retail businesses that underpin US tech giants' combined $750 billion in AI investment this year have shown signs of slowing growth. Alphabet's search advertising revenue posted its lowest growth rate in five quarters, Amazon's advertising business grew 11% year over year, the slowest since it began disclosing the figure separately in 2022, and its online stores grew only 2%. Google Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler acknowledged that search queries under AI modes are monetized at a lower level, and Alphabet's stock suffered its largest drop in history, with nearly $500 billion in market value wiped out.

    ElevenLabs partners with Spain's adELA to provide free voice restoration for ALS patients

    ElevenLabs announced a partnership with the Spanish ALS association adELA to give ALS patients diagnosed in Spain free access to its voice restoration and preservation technology. This is the first project of the ElevenLabs Impact Program in Spain, and Spain is the first country to offer this technology through a nationwide patient association. Patients whose speech has not yet noticeably changed can record new samples, while those whose speech has changed can upload old recordings to generate their own digital voice. It is estimated that there are approximately 4,000–4,500 ALS patients in Spain, many of whom will eventually lose the ability to speak.

    US Congress questions Delaware proposal to allow AI agents to run companies

    On October 26, US House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer sent a letter to Delaware Governor Matt Meyer requesting documents related to the proposed "AI company" (AIC), including safety assessments and details of industry participation, and warned that the investigation could push federal legislation to restrict state-level AI initiatives. According to the draft, Delaware would establish a 30-month regulatory sandbox in which AICs could have AI agents handle business decisions without routine human oversight; the company itself could sue and be sued, and its members would generally be exempt from company liability, except in cases such as fraud or intentional violations of law. Andrew Baker, a law professor at the University of California, Berkeley, told the Financial Times that the liability exemption is too broad; Delaware Secretary of State Charuni Patibanda-Sanchez, together with Norm Ai CEO John Nay, presented the proposal in Fortune and mentioned that company formation fees could generate fiscal revenue. The bill is expected to be submitted next year.

    US police pull over vehicles based on suspicious driving patterns determined by license plate recognition cameras

    The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has reviewed multiple cases in which police pulled over vehicles based solely on data from automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) cameras such as Flock, with the earliest dating back to 2025. In one case, a woman traveling across state lines was stopped by someone claiming to be an FBI agent who checked her plate, on the grounds that she was from out of state and her itinerary did not match database records; another man was stopped for traveling back and forth between Wisconsin and Michigan, with police suspecting him of trafficking marijuana. This year, an Oklahoma judge called such stops unconstitutional indiscriminate mass surveillance, and a Florida legislator has proposed a bill requiring a search warrant to search ALPR databases.

OpenAI announced three mathematics, computer science, and physics results on October 26, stating that the Yang-Mills proof was completed on September 9 and its Lean formalization was completed on October 16, but the proof has only been seen by five physicists selected by OpenAI (led by 2004 Nobel Prize in Physics laureate David Gross). AGMAI is affiliated with the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, noted that the problem is one of the Millennium Prize Problems, and cited its October 25 statement opposing AI companies selecting the first reviewers themselves.

    31-Year-Old Female Engineer Dies Suddenly After Reducing Medication on ChatGPT's Advice; Parents Sue OpenAI

    Wan Bowen, a 31-year-old Chinese woman in Seattle, died after allegedly stopping her anti-epileptic drug lamotrigine on her own according to a day-by-day medication-reduction plan given by ChatGPT. Her parents filed a wrongful death lawsuit in San Francisco Superior Court, accusing OpenAI and Altman of practicing medicine without a license and providing dangerous medical advice. The report states that in January 2026 she asked ChatGPT to reduce her dosage from 400 milligrams to 300 milligrams per day, and in her final conversation before death she was told to maintain 0 milligrams. She was found dead on February 14, and the medical examiner ruled the death as sudden unexpected death in epilepsy, with the drug concentration in her blood only one-fifth of the lower therapeutic limit. OpenAI responded that this is a heartbreaking incident, but that the version involved was an early version that has since been taken down.
