ChatGPT-powered Barbies?
🚨 Our Report
Iconic toymaker, Mattel (makers of Barbie), has struck up a strategic partnership with OpenAI to bring AI-powered ‘play’ experiences and products to market and improve internal operations.
🔓 Key Points
Although details about the partnership are sparse, the first OpenAI-powered product/experience is expected to launch later this year to “enhance fan engagement in a safe, thoughtful, and responsible way.”
Although the output will be “across the spectrum of physical products and some experiences,” Mattel will not be licensing its IP to OpenAI and will remain in full control of the products being created.
As part of the partnership, Mattel will also get ChatGPT Enterprise to help streamline its internal operations and “drive innovation across its product development and creative ideation processes.”
🔐 Relevance
Mattel sees its partnership with OpenAI as a way to “leverage new technologies” to solidify its “leadership in innovation and reimagine new forms of play.” But it’s undoubtedly a strategic move to stay connected and relevant with its younger audiences—whether that means the output is a ChatGPT-powered Barbie, or just quicker film script writing, who knows! As for OpenAI, this is its first step into entertainment: A move which is aligned with its overall strategy of becoming indispensable across multiple, different industries.

Remio is an AI-powered personal knowledge hub
Meta’s AI app–which is integrated across all its social media platforms and answers questions, generates images, and helps with everyday tasks—has been publishing users’ private conversations onto a public feed.
People have seen other users’ deeply personal confessions, health questions, dilemmas, requests for help with tax evasion, along with private information such as names, numbers, and even court details.
Meta doesn’t tell users what their privacy settings are or where they’re posting to before they submit a question/request. So users are using the app and inadvertently sharing their inner thoughts with the world.
Chip-maker, AMD, has revealed its next generation of AI chips—Instinct MI400—that will ship next year and be used by OpenAI, whose CEO, Sam Altman, believes is “gonna be an awesome thing.”
The chips will power a new AI server—Helios—which will tie hundreds of these chips together into a ‘rack’ so they can be used as one unified system, which is key for AI companies that need masses of power.
This will allow AMD to compete with NVIDIA chips on power and on price, as AMD’s new ‘rack’ of chips will cost less to operate, thanks to lower power consumption, allowing it to undercut NVIDIA's “aggressive prices.”
