AI’s Quiet Expansion: From Chatbots to Health, Big Tech Keeps Rolling

AI tools like ChatGPT Health and Artisan are driving Big Tech's expansion into health and professional services.

Billionaires are fleeing California’s proposed wealth tax, but AI startups and tools are expanding their reach—how do these trends collide? While Larry Page’s relocation to Delaware captures headlines, the AI sector is quietly reshaping industries.

OpenAI’s ChatGPT Health claims 230 million users ask health questions weekly, and LinkedIn’s reinstatement of Artisan—a previously banned AI startup—signals a shift in platform policies.

ChatGPT Health’s user engagement figures dwarf traditional health platforms, but OpenAI has not disclosed pricing or availability details. This creates a gap between claimed utility and real-world accessibility.

Meanwhile, LinkedIn’s decision to reinstate Artisan suggests a recalibration of AI moderation strategies, prioritizing innovation over strict oversight.

For small businesses and users, these developments highlight a growing reliance on AI for critical tasks—from health consultations to professional networking. However, the lack of transparency around pricing and deployment raises questions about long-term sustainability and user trust.
