OpenAI has reached a deal with tax and accounting software company Intuit to feed personal financial data into ChatGPT, as the start-up seeks to expand the uses of artificial intelligence and its sources of income.
Intuit’s apps, which include TurboTax and Credit Karma, will be available in OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot under the terms of the $100mn multiyear deal, opening up data from Intuit’s roughly 100mn users to the AI start-up.
The software company, which also owns QuickBooks and Mailchimp, would pay OpenAI for use of the start-up’s technology to power AI “agents” that can handle complex queries, forecast cash flow or draft tax filings, the groups said on Tuesday.
