Wispr Flow lets you speak your prompts instead. Talk through your thinking naturally and get clean, paste-ready text. No filler words. No cleanup. Just detailed prompts that actually get you useful answers on the first try.

Anthropic’s CEO Dario Amodei just chimed in on investor Gavin Baker’s X conversation with coworker Sholto Douglas, rejecting that his safety alarms have backfired and saying the only way AI wins trust back is by “actually curing cancer.” Baker shared a rumor that Amodei envisions Anthropic one day becoming “the only private company in the world”, with Douglas calling it “completely false”.

OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar told investors that enterprise revenue has overtaken ChatGPT's consumer business, months ahead of schedule. The company that became the most famous consumer AI product in history now makes the majority of its money selling to other companies.
