  "account": "The artificial intelligence company OpenAI has reportedly increased its revenue in the third quarter to over ten billion dollars, according to multiple media reports. The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg cite an investor call from Tuesday to support their claims. This marks more than a 50% increase in revenue compared to the second quarter and a threefold increase compared to the same quarter last year. However, OpenAI remains behind its rival Anthropic. Anthropic recently reported a quarterly revenue of 17 billion dollars with an operating loss of nearly 500 million dollars, just before planning a stock market listing. OpenAI, on the other hand, reported an improved operating margin from minus 150% in the previous quarter to minus 109%. Despite significant investments in expanding computational capabilities for AI model development, the company's quarterly loss rose from 10.1 to 10.9 billion dollars. As OpenAI and Anthropic calculate their business figures differently, they are only loosely comparable.",
  "summary": "The ChatGPT developer reports significantly more business, but continues to lag behind rival Anthropic. In view of massive investments, losses continue to grow.",
