Tech Titans: OpenAI's Big Win, Walmart's Drone Plans, and Elon's Netflix Feud

USASat Oct 04 2025
OpenAI just became the world's most valuable private company. This is a huge deal. The company, led by Sam Altman, is now worth $500 billion. That's more than SpaceX, which has been the top dog for years. Other AI companies like Anthropic and Perplexity are way behind. Who bought into this? Big names like SoftBank and T. Rowe Price. This shows that a lot of people believe in OpenAI's future. Walmart is ready to take drone deliveries to the next level. They've been testing this for years. Now, they say drones will be a big part of their business. They didn't say when, but they're moving beyond small tests. Right now, only a few Walmart stores offer drone delivery. But they're expanding fast. They've teamed up with companies like Wing and Zipline. Soon, you might see drones dropping off your Walmart orders. Elon Musk is not happy with Netflix. He's been telling his followers to cancel their subscriptions. He says Netflix is pushing a "woke agenda. " But let's be real, Musk has his own agenda. His companies don't compete with Netflix. Still, he's been very vocal about this. Netflix shares took a small hit. But Tesla's shares didn't do much better. Hotels are getting smarter. A survey found that bathrooms are the hottest spot for tech. You can find smart mirrors, digital water controls, and even smart toilets. Who knew bathrooms could be so high-tech?
