• 🎧 Weekly Podcast Updates

• 🚀 Creating images in ChatGPT

• ❇️ ChatGPT isn’t the only chatbot that’s gaining users

• 😮 Sam Altman says that OpenAI’s capacity issues will cause product delays

🤖 This will change how executives use AI.

My mind was blown seeing this.

Executives are checking the box on AI tools (like Gemini, ChatGPT and Copilot), but they miss the real power.

They focus on basic tasks like email.

This is a big mistake.

AI has advanced far beyond simple uses.

🧠PhD models

-GPT o1/o3 -Grok "Think"
- Gemini "Pro"
-Perplexity "Reasoning" with Deepseek, 3.7 or o3

🤖AI agents can drive real change.

-GPT Deep Research
-Grok 3 Deep Research
-Gemini Deep Research
-Perplexity Deep Research

I see this with Executives across companies from $30 million to $5 billion (Bootstrapped, PE/VC Backed and even Publicly Traded) .

The gap is clear.

Top executives leverage AI to scale their intelligence.

They stack existing knowledge with AI tools.

This is a unique chance for growth.

For Companies:

↳ AI can transform operations.

It helps in decision-making and strategy.

Leaders who embrace this will lead the pack.

↳ Ignoring advanced AI limits potential.

Sticking to basic tasks keeps companies behind.

↳ AI tools can enhance productivity.

They free up time for strategic work.

Executives can focus on what matters most.

For Executives:

→ Understanding AI is key to staying relevant.

Knowledge of advanced tools sets you apart.

→ Using AI can boost your career.

It shows you are forward-thinking and adaptable.

→ Embracing AI leads to better outcomes.

You can drive innovation and growth in your organization.

→ The time to act is now.

The opportunity to lead with AI is here.

🙌This week's podcast episodes...

😮 Creating images in ChatGPT

Image generation with ChatGPT is now available for Free, Plus, Team, and Pro users (excluding Enterprise and Edu). GPT-4o is the default image model, though users can still access DALL·E via the DALL·E GPT.

You can generate or edit images by prompting ChatGPT or uploading an image and using the Select tool to modify specific areas. Images may take up to two minutes to render.

DALL·E-generated images are labeled, and users can report content that violates OpenAI’s guidelines.

🔹ChatGPT isn’t the only chatbot that’s gaining users

While ChatGPT remains the dominant chatbot with over 500 million weekly active users, competitors are quickly gaining ground.

• Google’s Gemini hit 10.9M daily web visits in March (up 7.4%)

• Microsoft Copilot reached 2.4M (up 2.1%)

• Anthropic’s Claude had 3.3M

• DeepSeek and xAI’s Grok both averaged 16.5M, with Grok’s traffic up nearly 800% month-over-month

App growth is also strong:

• Claude’s app users grew 21% week-over-week after its latest model launch

• Gemini app usage surged 42% after new features like “canvas” launched

Despite rising competition, ChatGPT still leads mobile usage by 10x over Gemini and Claude combined, according to Sensor Tower. —Read more here.

Sam Altman says that OpenAI’s capacity issues will cause product delays

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warned of product delays and performance issues due to overwhelming demand for ChatGPT’s new image-generation tool. The surge included 1 million new users in just one hour, bringing totals to 500 million weekly users and 20 million paid subscribers.

To manage capacity, OpenAI has:

• Delayed image generation for free users

• Temporarily disabled video generation in Sora for new users

Altman says the team is working nonstop to stabilize services. Read more.

🤖Apple reportedly revamping Health app to add an
AI coach

Apple is working on a major revamp of its Health app, featuring an AI coach that offers personalized wellness advice based on users’ health data. The feature, reportedly called Health+, may launch with iOS 19.4 in 2026.

The AI coach will include food tracking and is being trained on data from Apple’s staff physicians, with plans to add more expert-created health videos. Know more here.

😮Google is shipping Gemini models faster than its
AI safety reports

Google has accelerated its AI efforts with recent launches like Gemini 2.5 Pro and Gemini 2.0 Flash, aiming to stay ahead in the rapidly evolving AI landscape. However, critics warn the company is sacrificing transparency for speed.

Unlike competitors, Google hasn't released safety or performance reports — known as model cards — for its latest models, despite promising to do so in the past. Google says Gemini 2.5 Pro is still “experimental” and documentation will follow once it’s widely released.

Experts argue this delay in safety disclosures sets a concerning precedent, especially as AI systems become more advanced. - Read More

Your competitors are already using AI.
Don't get left behind.

Executives:

Step beyond the basics.

Embrace advanced AI to scale your impact, stay competitive, and lead your organization into the future.

The time to act is now.
