The big stories for me this week: OpenAI reportedly pushing towards an IPO this year to beat Anthropic to the punch; Google’s AI Overviews now funnelling mobile users directly into AI Mode, with no option to continue in traditional web search; and OpenAI floating a $60 CPM - pricier than TV, streaming and podcasts.
