Gold prices bounce off 3-week lows; demand likely longer term
Investing.com -- The Department of Defense and other federal agencies have been testing AI models from Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and OpenAI specifically aimed at extracting data from analytics applications run by contractors like Palantir (NASDAQ:PLTR) and Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT), the Information reported on Monday.
Major tech companies including Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Microsoft, and Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) have been developing AI tools to make it easier for customers to switch between platforms.
These new AI capabilities are designed to write code that transfers corporate data between applications or converts older programs into newer formats, potentially freeing customers from vendor lock-in situations.
Government officials view these tools as potential leverage in contract negotiations with current providers like Palantir, as they could credibly threaten to migrate agency data to competing analytics platforms such as Microsoft’s Power BI.
