Beating AI News Flash, according to Bloomberg, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman met with approximately 50 Samsung Group executives in South Korea on October 31 to discuss deepening cooperation in memory chips and AI infrastructure. Attendees represented Samsung’s business units spanning electronics, finance, and biotech, with topics ranging from AI’s impact on industries, corporate decision-making, and business opportunities over the next decade. The meeting takes place against the backdrop of a global memory chip shortage and ongoing price hikes, as surging demand from data center operators further fuels competition for chip supplies. The world’s top five AI infrastructure players are set to invest over $3 trillion in the coming years, with memory chips making up around one-third of data center expenditure. The gathering also follows the pair’s previously announced partnerships, including supplying memory chips for OpenAI’s Stargate infrastructure project and co-developing AI data centers, with initiatives such as offshore floating data centers included.

Crypto trader Ansem posted that the crypto market may have peaked earlier than the US stock market in this cycle. If the recent rebound is merely a counter-trend rally and the US stock market has only just begun a larger correction, the crypto market could still face a new round of decline. Ansem noted that risk appetite in this cycle has been largely driven by AI and US stock market performance, so it is worth considering the possibility that the crypto market and traditional stock markets do not peak at the same time. However, he is not certain the market will necessarily follow this scenario, remains open-minded, and is monitoring price reactions as both assets approach key levels. He also added that even if the crypto market and US stocks continue to fall in the short term, Bitcoin could bottom earlier than the broader stock market.

In response to external interpretations of his earlier comments about SpaceX holdings as an attempt to pressure Elon Musk, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) issued a clarification, stating he never intended to sell his SpaceX shares nor had any motive to threaten anyone. CZ explained that referencing Binance’s SpaceX stake was to address discussions comparing Binance to FTX and questioning its financial standing, to show that Binance holds assets beyond cryptocurrency, not to pressure Musk. He stressed that Binance’s SpaceX holding is just a "drop in the bucket" relative to SpaceX’s total size, so it could never constitute a threat, and called SpaceX a high-quality stock worthy of long-term investment. Earlier, CZ had publicly disclosed that Binance invested $500 million when Musk acquired Twitter, and its current SpaceX stake is valued at over $1 billion. In response to Musk’s teasing, CZ previously said he hoped Musk would offer some support during Binance’s challenging period.

Beating AI News Flash: OpenAI’s 28-day product sprint is now on Day 26. ChatGPT now supports fast account switching on iOS and Android, eliminating the need to repeatedly log out, with up to two accounts able to be logged in simultaneously. Chat history, memory, and subscriptions remain separate, and the desktop version will roll out the feature soon. Tibo also teased in advance that a "banked reset" (rollover credit reset card) will be offered in the final two days. Unlike the previous global reset that directly refreshed the quota, this reset opportunity will be stored in users’ accounts, allowing them to use it manually when their quota is nearly exhausted.
