OpenAI has added three courses to its Academy platform, aimed at helping people develop hands-on AI skills. The courses cover building practical AI skills, creating repeatable workflows, and applying AI agents to everyday work tasks. The Academy is positioned as a structured learning resource rather than a product announcement, with a focus on applied use rather than theory.
Read article →Preply, an online language tutoring platform, has built a feature using OpenAI's models that automatically generates summaries after tutoring sessions. The summaries include personalised feedback on what the learner covered, notes on errors or patterns the tutor observed, and follow-up exercises tied to that specific lesson. The feature is intended to reduce the administrative work tutors do after each session while giving learners a structured recap they can act on between classes.

The Code focuses on provenance standards, meaning technical methods that help identify whether content was made by an AI system. By signing, OpenAI commits to implementing and supporting tools that label or watermark AI-generated text, images, audio, and video, so that people encountering that content can understand its origin. The Code is part of a broader EU effort to establish common industry standards before binding rules take full effect.

The rollout is part of a broader partnership with OpenAI aimed at embedding AI tools into everyday banking operations. BBVA began piloting ChatGPT internally in 2023 and has since expanded use across departments including risk, legal, software development, and client services. The bank reports widespread adoption and is now working with OpenAI to develop more tailored applications for financial services.
Read article →Notion's engineering teams have integrated OpenAI's Codex into several parts of their development workflow. Engineers use Codex to produce first-draft technical specifications from rough prompts, a task they call 'one-shotting' specs, which reduces the time spent on early planning documents. The team also used Codex as a core part of building AI Voice Input for the web, a feature that converts spoken input into structured notes. Across these workflows, Notion reports that small teams can take on work that would previously have required more engineers, with Codex handling boilerplate, drafting, and exploratory code tasks.
