AI price war begins as costs become a key factor for OpenAI and Anthropic

As AI costs rise for large companies and startups alike, price is emerging as a major variable in the AI market alongside performance. Demand for cheaper models is increasing, putting pressure on leading firms such as OpenAI and Anthropic, which are seeking IPOs as early as this year, to cut prices. Companies are shifting workloads to lower-cost or open-source models, while interest grows in tools that let firms switch between external models, in-house systems and open source depending on needs.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong forecast most work will shift to much cheaper models, a shift that could affect profitability at major AI firms.

AI models split on 2026 World Cup winner, Spain gets 4 votes and Argentina 3

A test asking seven AI models to predict the winner of the 2026 World Cup produced split results, with four selecting Spain and three backing Argentina. All models ranked Spain, Argentina and France among the top teams, but differed on the champion. The experiment used the same 48-team field, 12 groups and full bracket. Differences largely reflected which data each model prioritised, such as Elo ratings or FIFA rankings and past results.
