In Today’s AI for Business News:

• OpenAI expands its $500 billion Stargate project globally with “OpenAI for Countries,” working directly with governments to set up AI data centers and tailor tools for local needs.
• Microsoft bans employees from using DeepSeek over concerns tied to data privacy and Chinese government influence.
• Apple may drop Google Search from Safari as it explores deals with AI search startups like Perplexity, Anthropic, and OpenAI.
• A new study shows that asking AI for short answers increases the chance of errors and false information, especially with unclear or flawed questions.

Prompt Tip – Add emotion by asking AI to write in a regretful, reflective tone to make content more honest and relatable.
