Data from Ramp reveals that top enterprise users reduced their AI spend per employee by 9.7% in August, signaling a potential shift as businesses migrate to cheaper, open-weight models over expensive frontier APIs. Meanwhile, Google DeepMind launched AlphaGenome Atlas, a 1-petabyte research platform precomputing predicted molecular effects for all 9 billion possible single-letter DNA mutations across the human genome.

We’ll talk about:

• Business AI spend slowing as average token prices drop to $0.68/M, with top 1% enterprise users trimming per-employee spending by nearly 10%.
• A 1-petabyte precomputed database scoring predicted molecular impacts across 9 billion single-nucleotide variants in coding and non-coding DNA.
• Qualcomm landing an AWS enterprise agreement, granting Amazon warrants for 25M shares and potential procurement of up to $60B in server processors.
• OpenAI appointing Alignment Research Center founder Paul Christiano to its board to bolster catastrophic risk governance.
