The shift coincides with executive turnover at OpenAI (Brad Lightcap's departure) and Meta's public AI manifesto, all set against continued heavy AI infrastructure capital expenditure and finance-sector moves (e.g., Wall Street paying for algorithmic edges on social signals) that underscore AI's deepening entanglement with capital markets.

Where sources disagree
JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Both facts report JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s revenue for the same fiscal period (FY 2025) with the same observation date (2025-12-31), but with different values: $182.447 billion vs. $185 billion. The ~1.4% difference ($2.553 billion) is too large to be explained by rounding alone and represents conflicting data for the identical time period.
