OpenAI launches ChatGPT for personal finance, will let you connect bank accounts

On Friday, OpenAI launched a new set of personal finance tools in preview for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the U.S., letting them connect their accounts and ask questions ranging from spending analysis to future financial planning. OpenAI has partnered with the financial connection service Plaid to manage the account connections. Users can connect to over 12,000 financial institutions, including Schwab, Fidelity, Chase, Robinhood, American Express, and Capital One. Once users connect these accounts, they will see a dashboard of their portfolio performance, spending, subscriptions, and upcoming payments. The new product comes just one month after OpenAIacquired the team behind personal finance startup Hiro, which was backed by firms like Ribbit, General Catalyst, and Restive, in April. OpenAI said that the Hiro team’s expertise in finance was useful in launching this product but didn’t specify if the entire feature was built by them. OpenAI users can access the tool by selecting “Get started” in the “Finances” option in the sidebar, or typing “@Finances, connect my accounts” in a ChatGPT conversation. Once users do that, the chatbot will guide them about linking accounts through Plaid. The company said it plans to support Intuit soon, which would enable analysis such as the impact of a stock sale on taxes or the odds of a credit card approval. According to OpenAI, more than 200 million users already ask financial questions to ChatGPT every month. The company also noted that the new GPT-5.5 model is stronger at reasoning with context, which is crucial for answering finance-related questions. The company said it worked with finance experts to create a benchmark for the model to improve on personal finance questions. With the new financial tool integration, users can get detailed answers to questions such as “I feel like I’ve been spending more recently. Has anything changed?” or “Help me build a plan to be ready to buy a house in my area in the next 5 years.” Users can go to Settings > Apps > Finances to remove connections to certain accounts if they want. Once they disconnect a service, the synced data will be removed from ChatGPT in 30 days. What’s more, users can also view and delete financial memories from the Finances page. Generalized chatbots are designed to answer anything, leading people to ask questions about data-sensitive topics such as health, finance, and personal life. AI companies are realizing this and making specialized products for these sectors. BothOpenAI and Anthropichave launched health-related tools. Earlier this month, Perplexity launched its ownfinancial research product based on its Computer agent. OpenAI said its personal finance tools will be available on ChatGPT on the web and on iOS for Pro users. It noted that, based on the feedback from these users, it wants to improve the product before making it available to Plus users.

Anthropic scales Claude Mythos to critical infrastructure in 15+ countries

Anthropic scales Claude Mythos to critical infrastructure in 15+ countries

Anthropic is expandingProject Glasswing, its joint industry initiative to find and fix critical software vulnerabilities using AI, to about 150 new organizations across more than 15 countries, the companysaidTuesday. The news comes a day after Anthropic said it hadfiled confidentiallyfor an initial public offering, following a$65 billion fundinground at a nearly $1 trillion valuation. Anthropic’s Claude Mythos is at the heart of Project Glasswing. The AI firm dubbed the model its most powerful yet, able to identify thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities over several weeks. In early April,Anthropic gave 50 initial partners, including the U.S. government, access to Claude Mythos Preview to scan their codebases for vulnerabilities and security flaws. The expanded list of organizations with access to Mythos as of today covers power, water, healthcare, communications, and hardware — industries that weren’t “well-represented” in Anthropic’s initial cohort, the company said. Many who will now have access are companies or nonprofits that maintain codebases which other organizations and governments rely upon, Anthropic noted in the blog post. “What each partner has in common is that a successful attack on their codebase could be catastrophic,” the company said. “For most partners, we estimate that a major attack could affect more than 100 million people, with important ramifications for both global and national security.” The expanded group includes organizations in countries friendly to the U.S., including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Sweden, India, Japan, New Zealand, and South Korea, according toFinancial Times, citing a person familiar with the matter. The FT also reported several organizations that have been given access to Mythos, including: U.S.-based identity and security management tool Okta; South Korean companies Samsung, SK Hynix, and SK Telecom; NATO, the U.S.-led military alliance headquartered in Brussels; and the EU’s cybersecurity agency ENISA. TechCrunch has reached out to Anthropic to confirm. Anthropic has said it expects other AI companies to soon develop models as capable as Mythos Preview, which is why the firm is racing to establish safeguards within Project Glasswing. Since releasing Mythos, rival OpenAI released its own cybersecurity-focused model GPT-5.5-Cyber, which it has rolled out to a large group of partners for testing.

OpenAI launches new Codex tools for white-collar work

OpenAI launches new Codex tools for white-collar work

OpenAI is getting serious about courting enterprise users. On Tuesday, the AI labreleased a new set of capabilities for Codex, meant to expand the agentic tool’s uses in the workplace. Together with the new tools, the company releasedan internal reporton how Codex is being used for knowledge work, finding its uses go far beyond software engineering. “Codex now has more than 5 million weekly active users, up more than 6x since the launch of the desktop app in February,” readsa blog post introducing the report. “While developers remain the largest user group, knowledge workers now represent about 20 percent of users and are growing more than three times as fast.” To further court those users, OpenAI released a set of six plug-ins aimed at specific jobs: data analytics, creative production, sales, product design, equity investing, and investment banking. Available fromwithin the Codex app, each of the new tools bundles integrations, instructions, and context to allow Codex to approximate a specific job. Like any AI tool, the plug-ins will grow more effective with user customization, but they’re meant to be effective tools out of the box. The new tools come after a similar push for agentic plugins from Anthropic, whichlaunched its Enterprise Agents programin February. (A more specific set of finance-oriented agentslaunched in May.) With its traditional consumer focus, OpenAI has been slower to court enterprise customers, only introducing plugin support for Codexin March. Together with the plug-ins, OpenAI introduced a new Sites feature, which allows Codex to output its work product as a hosted interactive website, instead of just a local file. As part of that system, OpenAI is partnering with Wix, Base44, Replit, Lovable, Figma, and Emergent — although the company plans to develop a larger partner ecosystem to support the service. A new Annotations feature will also allow users to designate a specific part of a document or file within Codex, allowing for more specific commands and context operations. The new enterprise features come just three weeks after OpenAI launched a new joint venture for enterprise clients, dubbedthe OpenAI Deployment Company. The venture includes more than $4 billion in funding from global investment firms, with the aim of integrating OpenAI tools more deeply into businesses around the world. “AI is becoming capable of doing increasingly meaningful work inside organizations,” OpenAI Chief Revenue Officer Denise Dresser said in a statement at launch. “The challenge now is helping companies integrate these systems into the infrastructure and workflows that power their businesses.”

Trump signs narrower executive order on AI oversight after industry objections

Trump signs narrower executive order on AI oversight after industry objections

President Donald Trump signedan executive orderon Tuesday designed to give the government a chance to review powerful AI models before they are released. The order asks certain AI companies to voluntarily submit their new models to the government for testing or evaluation 30 days before releasing the products to the public. A previous draft of the order had called for a voluntary review up to 90 days in advance, though AI industry insiders had pushed for something closer to a two-week window. Trump had been slated to sign the more demanding version of the order in late May, butdelayedafter industry pushback, including from venture capitalist and former White House AI czarDavid Sacks. The president said at the time that he didn’t want to do anything to get in AI firms’ way of leading against China. “Nothing in this section shall be construed to authorize the creation of a mandatory governmental licensing, preclearance, or permitting requirement for the development, publication, release, or distribution of new AI models, including frontier models,” reads the order, published Tuesday. Trump had planned to sign the EO with a bevy of Silicon Valley’s top CEOs in attendance, but ended up signing the current version privately. In addition to the voluntary governmental AI model review, the EO directs the Department of Justice to treat crimes like AI-assisted hacking and unauthorized access as a high-priority enforcement area. This isn’t the president’s first EO on AI. Last December,Trump signed an orderdirecting the development of “one rulebook,” or a national AI policy framework, intended to preempt state AI laws.
