AI Welfare, Subscription Shake-Ups & Google’s Scam Problem

In today’s episode of AI in Flow, Peter and Sarah cover a packed line-up of AI stories shaping the global landscape. From OpenAI’s new budget-tier ChatGPT Go plan in India to Meta’s on-device WhatsApp writing assistant, we explore how AI is changing access, privacy, and user experience. We dive into Anthropic’s bold move to introduce “AI welfare” by cutting off abusive chats, Arm’s pivot into building its own AI chips, and Sam Altman’s paradoxical take on the AI investment bubble. Plus, we discuss the cultural shockwave at IgniteTech, where 80% of staff were replaced over AI resistance, and Google’s worrying problem of AI search results pointing users to scams. We also touch on Foxconn’s pivot to AI servers and Perplexity’s push to democratise financial data in India.Brought to you by the team at Six & Flow, your digital transformation consultancy for AI, CRM, and growth.About Six & FlowSix & Flow is a digital transformation consultancy helping businesses adapt, grow, and thrive in a fast-changing world.
