The AI Daily Brief: Artificial Intelligence News and Analysis
The Problem with ChatGPT Erotica
15 Oct 2025
OpenAI will soon let verified adults access mature content in ChatGPT—including erotica and customizable personalities—under its new “treat adults like adults” policy. CEO Sam Altman said earlier limits were to protect vulnerable users but can now be safely relaxed. The move sparked backlash from figures like Mark Cuban and Vivek Ramaswamy, who warned it could harm trust and worsen AI-related loneliness, while supporters see it as advancing user freedom and personalization. In the headlines: Citigroup’s AI saves developers 100,000 hours weekly, Walmart adds AI shopping to ChatGPT, Salesforce expands its OpenAI partnership, Intel readies a new GPU, and Oracle will deploy 50,000 AMD chips.Brought to you by:Is your enterprise ready for the future of agentic AI?Visit AGNTCY.orgVisit Outshift Internet of AgentsGoogle Gemini - Try NotebookLM today https://notebooklm.google.com/KPMG – Discover how AI is transforming possibility into reality.

Today on the AI Daily Brief, OpenAI opens the door to adult AI content. Before that in the headlines, Citigroup's use of AI has freed up 100,000 hours for their developers each week. The AI Daily Brief is a daily podcast and video about the most important news and discussions in AI. All right, friends, quick announcements before we dive in. First of all, thank you to today's
Welcome back to the AI Daily Brief Headlines Edition, all the daily AI news you need in around five minutes.
Since we have so many of these MIT-style studies claiming no positive results from AI floating around, we're going to start a new little corner on the show called the ROI Spotlight, where we highlight companies that are making announcements about how much actual tangible value they're getting from AI in the here and now.
Kicking off this segment, we have Citigroup, where the bank has claimed huge AI efficiency gains in their earnings report. They said that their two main enterprise-wide AI tools combined for 7 million utilizations last quarter, which tripled the usage of the previous quarter.
In addition, AI coding tools have completed 1 million code reviews year-to-date, saving in their estimation around 100,000 hours per week across their developer teams. Remember, this is not showing up in a press release. This is showing up in an earnings report.
And as we move into a 2026 where ROI is one of, if not the dominant enterprise AI theme, we will continue to keep an eye out for reported results like this. Now, speaking of enterprises and AI, yesterday, Walmart announced that they were partnering with OpenAI on AI shopping.
A couple of weeks ago, we heard about ChatGPT's new checkout features, and Walmart now joins as the biggest partner to take advantage of them. ChatGPT users will now be able to shop Walmart products right in the app, complete with a buy button and integrated checkout.
