The Case For Being Courageously Unambitious
Partner Column exclusively available in this edition of The AI Report
By Louis Shulman — Co Founder of Orbit Flows
“An AI project that’s 95% finished isn’t ‘almost valuable.’ It’s worthless. There’s a nonlinear jump between a promising MVP and a tool that actually works.”
ChatGPT to offer investment insights?
🚨 Our Report
OpenAI has acquired Roi, an AI-powered personal-investing app that offers personalized financial insights, to accelerate its push into consumer-focused AI products. The undisclosed deal, which is being described as an “acqui-hire,” will bring Roi’s technology to OpenAI along with its CEO and co-founder, Sujith Vishwajith, and his engineering team.
🔓 Key Points
OpenAI plans to integrate Roi’s tech into ChatGPT, which will allow OpenAI to build AI assistants that can deliver tailored financial guidance and user-specific investment insights.
This highlights OpenAI’s strategic shift from building generic “one-size-fits-all” AI towards specialist AI agents that can deliver personalized support in areas like budgeting, investing, and financial planning.
Analysts say it also signals OpenAI’s intent to compete more directly with fintech platforms and strengthen its consumer offerings, when its rivals are also busy building agent-driven, consumer-led AI products.
🔐 Relevance
This latest acquisition comes after OpenAI, in recent months, has launched a flurry of consumer-led products, including a new social media app, Sora, and an “instant checkout” shopping agent. This is because the next wave of AI growth will not come from building generic AI chatbots; AI companies across all sectors need to follow OpenAI’s lead and focus on developing deeply personalized AI models that not only understand and adapt to users’ unique needs but can also solve their real-life issues and frustrations.

How AI boosted content creation for this start-up
CMY Cubes, an educational kit business, had limited in-house time/resources to create regular blogs, social content, or SEO copy.
It adopted a custom GPT model aligned with their brand style, which generated SEO-friendly blog posts, content, and promo copy.
As a result, CMY Cubes was able to publish content more regularly, with less manual effort and resources.
This AI-supported content generation not only lowered resource costs but it freed them up to focus on core business operations.

Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos, has predicted that, within the next 10–20 years, data centers will be built in space and will outperform Earth-based ones, thanks to cheaper launches and advances in solar energy.
He envisions solar-powered data centers orbiting Earth and believes that moving power-hungry data centers into space will not only reduce environmental strain but also unlock new computing capacity.
According to Bezos, “it’s already happened with weather and communication satellites, the next step will be data centres," as the cost of transporting equipment to space is falling fast enough to make the idea realistic.
Space Data Centers: Reality or Hype?
OpenAI’s highly anticipated first hardware product (designed in collaboration with the legendary iPhone designer, Jony Ive) is reportedly facing delays due to technical challenges and a lack of clarity over its core purpose.
The AI device, which was initially slated for an early-2026 launch, may now slip into late-2026 as the team struggles with disagreements over its “personality,” functionality, and how it handles privacy.
Reports are suggesting the new device will be “a palm-sized device without a screen that can take audio and visual cues from the physical environment and respond to users’ requests…in an 'always on' approach.”
