OpenAI has acquihired Hiro Finance, bringing ~10 AI‑finance engineers and founder Ethan Bloch (who previously sold Digit for $230M) into its ranks. Hiro’s AI, launched just 5 months ago, was tuned for precise financial math and scenario modeling. This move deepens OpenAI’s push into consumer fintech, likely bolstering ChatGPT’s personal finance capabilities and opening new revenue streams. #AI #FinTech #OpenAI #Acquisition #ChatGPT
