Tech in 2025: Hi, I’m your AI-powered assistant
Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter.
Since the release of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, generative AI tools have been helping us answer questions, write essays and create AI images and videos. But now, tech companies are promising AI tools that actually complete everyday tasks on our behalf.
Murad Ahmed is joined by Madhumita Murgia, the FT’s AI editor, who has been speaking to Dario Amodei, chief executive of Silicon Valley AI company Anthropic. They discuss plans to create ‘AI agents’ that could do anything from replying to emails on our behalf to ordering our weekly grocery shopping online, as well as some of the challenges that leading AI companies face as they develop ever-more sophisticated AI systems.
