🤖 Big Move - OpenAI

ChatGPT Is Now an Ad Platform. OpenAI Just Changed Its Business Model.

You know how Google makes money by showing ads inside search results? OpenAI just did the same thing with ChatGPT. Businesses can now pay to show up inside ChatGPT conversations. No agency needed. Just set a budget, pick your audience, and go live. ChatGPT has 400 million weekly users. That is a massive audience just sitting there.

→ Ads appear inside conversations, not as banners or pop-ups
→ Any business can buy directly, no middleman needed
→ OpenAI is no longer just a subscription company. That just changed.

Google built a trillion-dollar company with ads inside a search box. OpenAI just built a better one with 400M weekly users and opened the ad slot. If you run a business, pay attention to this.

🏠 Real Estate

Someone Just Scanned a House With Their Phone and Listed It Online

No app. No VR headset. No realtor appointment. Just a phone scan and anyone on Earth can walk through that house in a browser tab right now.

The tech is called 3D Gaussian Splatting. AI reconstructs reality from your phone photos. The result loads on any browser and looks like you are physically there.

Freelancers are already charging $300 to $800 per scan for realtors, Airbnbs, car dealers, and venues. One person, one phone, one weekend. Open source and free.

Apple just secretly added Starlink satellite support to iPhones through iOS 18.3.

One of the biggest potential winners? Mode Mobile.

Mode’s EarnPhone already reaches 490M+ users that have earned over $1B, and that’s before global satellite coverage. With SpaceX eliminating "dead zones," Mode's earning technology can now reach billions more in unbanked and rural populations worldwide.

Their global expansion is perfectly timed, and investors like you still have a chance to invest in their pre-IPO offering at $0.50/share.

With their recent 32,481% revenue growth and newly reserved Nasdaq ticker, Mode is one step closer to a potential IPO.

Please read the offering circular and related risks at invest.modemobile.com. This is a paid advertisement for Mode Mobile’s Regulation A+ Offering.

Mode Mobile recently received their ticker reservation with Nasdaq ($MODE), indicating an intent to IPO in the next 24 months. An intent to IPO is no guarantee that an actual IPO will occur.

The Deloitte rankings are based on submitted applications and public company database research, with winners selected based on their fiscal-year revenue growth percentage over a three-year period.

🔓 Under The Radar

A Student Built a Free Backdoor to Claude and GPT

A Chinese MIT student quietly built a proxy that routes through Windsurf's model stack and gives you access to Claude Opus, GPT-5, and Gemini at zero cost.

Point your tools at localhost:3003 instead of the real API and they run on top models without any changes. It also rotates multiple free accounts automatically to handle rate limits.

⚗️ Google AI Studio

Google AI Studio Just Got a Major Coding Upgrade

Google AI Studio now lets you build full apps from a plain text prompt using the new Gemini coding agent. Connect databases, add real-world services, and ship multiplayer experiences without touching a framework.

Google and Kaggle also opened registration for a free AI Agents Vibe Coding Course starting June 2026, built for people who want to ship software fast without drowning in syntax.

🌐 Google Chrome

Chrome Now Has a Built-In AI That Reads Your Tabs

Google baked Gemini directly into Chrome. Click the icon on any tab and your AI assistant already knows what is on the page. Summarize, ask questions, take action without ever switching tabs.

Chrome 148 also shipped split view, PDF annotations, Save to Google Drive, and Gmail compose from the side panel. The browser is quietly becoming a full productivity layer.
