Judge Amit Mehta dismisses two antitrust lawsuits against Google over the AI Overviews feature

Business impact

Chegg and Penske Media Corporation were unsuccessful with these antitrust claims. For publishers considering a similar legal defense, the ruling is relevant when assessing legal risk.

The McDonald's chain in the US uses AI to recommend prices to individual restaurants

Business impact

Operators of McDonald's restaurants in the United States receive data-driven pricing recommendations, but according to the company, they continue to decide on final prices. At the same time, testimonies from five operators point to pressure to use these tools.

Approximately 70% of reviews did not complete during the Copilot Code Review service outage

The Copilot Code Review service experienced an outage on 28 September from 19:23 to 22:08 UTC, during which, according to GitHub, approximately 70% of requested reviews did not complete. Failed reviews were not automatically retried; users must request them again.

Business impact

A company's change review process may have been left without the expected automated review result; according to GitHub, a delayed completion signal also extended the time needed to detect the incident.

Amazon worth noting Coding Development

Amazon Bedrock now supports open models for AI coding agents via integration with OpenCode

Amazon Bedrock now supports open models (NVIDIA Nemotron, Moonshot AI Kimi K3, GPT-OSS from OpenAI) for AI coding agents via integration with the OpenCode tool. According to AWS, this reduces costs and addresses data residency; the source text is only partial.

Business impact

According to AWS, companies running AI coding agents can run open models (Nemotron, Kimi K3, GPT-OSS) directly within Amazon Bedrock instead of calling closed third-party APIs, which the vendor says brings lower costs, data residency within their own AWS account, and a choice between the Priority, Standard, and Flex pricing tiers.

NVIDIA worth noting update New models Development

NVIDIA clarifies the parameters of the Nemotron 3 Diarization speaker recognition model

NVIDIA has published additional technical details on the open-weight model Nemotron 3 Diarization: according to the company, it is 41% more accurate than its predecessor and leads the Diarization-Bench leaderboard with an error rate of 14.72% (DER).

New: 41% better error rate than Streaming Sortformer (specific percentage); The model can be combined with Parakeet to create transcripts with speaker tags; Audio buffer adjustable to four levels (30.4–0.32 seconds); Error rate increases with more participants, strong noise, and hares of sound; The Voice Arena benchmark is strict – it counts overlapping speech and misalignments

Business impact

Companies that process calls, meetings, or podcasts (transcription, conversation analytics, voice agents) can replace or supplement a proprietary speaker recognition solution with an open model with freely available weights, which reduces licensing costs, but requires their own deployment and infrastructure.

Amazon worth noting update AI agents Risks and compliance

Amazon blocked the shopping agent Muse from Meta from accessing its store

Since 20 September 2026, Amazon has been blocking the shopping agent Muse from Meta from accessing its store — according to Amazon, the agent does not disclose that it is AI and stores data without consent. Amazon previously imposed similar restrictions on agents from Perplexity, Google and OpenAI.

New: The agent does not identify itself as AI while browsing the platform; It appears to store customer data without consent; Muse became the most downloaded free app in the US App Store within a week of launch (8 September 2026); Amazon also blocks agents from Perplexity, Google and OpenAI; Meta and Amazon remain business partners with a billion-scale deal for AI chips

Business impact

Companies building AI shopping agents risk being blocked and facing legal disputes if they access third-party platforms without an agreement and without transparently identifying the agent; Amazon has already restricted Perplexity, Google, OpenAI and Meta in this way, even though the court ruled against Amazon in the Perplexity case in August 2026.

Nolla Health launches a pilot service in Utah for prescribing acne treatment using AI

Patients in the state of Utah can obtain a prescription for acne treatment using AI through the app from Nolla Health.

Business impact

The workflow is changing for the medical team involved in the pilot: mandatory approval of every prescription by two doctors before it is issued is set to be replaced by a review after it is issued in the next phase.

Olmo-core 3 introduces redesigned open infrastructure for training large MoE models

Olmo-core 3 has been released, providing infrastructure that keeps experts in GPU memory and routes data to them when training MoE models. According to the authors, it achieved approximately 2.7 times the throughput of the previous implementation in a preliminary test on eight NVIDIA B300 GPUs.

Business impact

For companies training their own MoE models, higher throughput may change the GPU time required and compute capacity planning. However, the documented tests do not quantify financial savings in a specific company's operations.

Meta uses the US research tax credit for AI data centers and chips

Meta classifies AI data centers and Nvidia chips as research expenditures. According to the article, this saved the company 3.9 billion dollars in taxes in 2025, compared with 2 billion in 2024. In SEC filings, it acknowledges that these savings could be challenged.

Business impact

According to the article, a similar tax approach is being offered to companies purchasing AI chips. For financial planning, however, it poses a risk that the expected savings will later be challenged.
