OpenAI launches ChatGPT for personal finance, will let you connect bank accounts
OpenAI has rolled out a new suite of personal finance features for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the United States. Available in preview, the tools allow users to connect their financial accounts directly to ChatGPT and get answers to questions about spending habits, budgeting, and long-term financial planning.
To handle account connections securely, OpenAI has teamed up with Plaid, a widely used financial data service. Through this partnership, users can link accounts from more than 12,000 financial institutions, including major names like Chase, Fidelity, Schwab, Robinhood, American Express, and Capital One. After connecting, users gain access to a dashboard displaying portfolio performance, spending breakdowns, active subscriptions, and upcoming payments.
The launch comes just weeks after OpenAI acquired the team behind Hiro, a personal finance startup previously backed by investors including Ribbit, General Catalyst, and Restive. OpenAI acknowledged that the Hiro team's financial expertise played a role in building the product, though it stopped short of clarifying how much of the feature was developed by them specifically.
Getting started is straightforward. Users can either select the "Finances" option in the ChatGPT sidebar or type "@Finances, connect my accounts" directly into a conversation. From there, the chatbot walks users through linking their accounts via Plaid. OpenAI has also announced plans to add support for Intuit in the near future, which would unlock more advanced analysis — such as understanding how selling a stock might affect your taxes, or estimating the likelihood of being approved for a new credit card.
The move makes sense given user behavior. OpenAI reports that over 200 million people already turn to ChatGPT with financial questions each month. The company says its latest GPT-5.5 model is particularly well-suited for this kind of work, thanks to stronger contextual reasoning. OpenAI also worked alongside finance professionals to develop a dedicated benchmark aimed at improving the model's performance on personal finance topics.
With the new tools in place, users can ask nuanced, real-world questions like "Have my spending habits changed recently?" or "What steps should I take to be ready to buy a home in my area within five years?" The goal is to deliver meaningful, personalized financial guidance rather than generic advice.
Privacy controls are built into the feature as well. Users can manage or remove connected accounts at any time by navigating to Settings > Apps > Finances. Once an account is disconnected, the associated data is permanently deleted from ChatGPT within 30 days. Users can also review and remove any financial memories stored by the system directly from the Finances page.
OpenAI's move into personal finance reflects a broader trend among AI companies. As general-purpose chatbots become go-to tools for sensitive topics like health and money, both OpenAI and its competitors are developing more specialized products for these areas. Anthropic has launched health-focused tools, and earlier this month Perplexity introduced a financial research product powered by its Computer agent.
For now, the personal finance features are available on ChatGPT's web platform and iOS app for Pro subscribers only. OpenAI says it plans to gather feedback from this initial group before expanding access to Plus users.

ArXiv introduces one-year ban for authors misusing AI in research papers.
Research repository ArXiv will ban authors for a year if they let AI do all the work
ArXiv, a major preprint research repository, is cracking down on unchecked AI-generated content in scientific papers. Authors caught submitting work with clear signs of unreviewed LLM output — such as hallucinated references or AI prompts left in the text — will face a one-year ban.
ArXiv isn't prohibiting AI use outright, but demands authors take full responsibility for all content. The rule is a one-strike policy, with moderators and section chairs confirming violations before penalties are imposed. Authors may appeal decisions.

Apple's Siri revamp could include auto-deleting chats
Apple's Siri relaunch will prioritize privacy with auto-deleting chats and Google Gemini.
Apple is preparing a major overhaul of Siri, set to be unveiled at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June, with privacy taking center stage. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple executives plan to position the revamped Siri as a more privacy-conscious alternative to competing AI products like ChatGPT and Google Gemini.
The relaunch represents Apple's most significant push yet to reassert itself in the increasingly competitive artificial intelligence landscape. A key part of that effort will be the introduction of the first-ever standalone Siri app, which will be powered by Google Gemini and offer users a conversational chatbot experience similar to what rivals currently provide.
Despite being built on Google's technology, Apple intends to differentiate Siri through stricter data handling policies. One notable feature reportedly in the works is an auto-delete option for conversations, modeled after a similar feature already found in Apple's Messages app. Users would be able to choose to have their chats automatically erased after 30 days or one year, or opt to keep them stored indefinitely.
However, Gurman raises an important caveat. He suggests that Apple's heavy emphasis on privacy may also serve as a strategic way to draw attention away from Siri's current limitations when compared to more capable competing products. Perhaps more notably, the privacy messaging could obscure the fact that Google — not Apple — is handling a significant portion of the underlying data processing and security infrastructure.
Whether Apple's privacy-first pitch will be enough to win back user confidence in Siri remains to be seen, but the June conference is shaping up to be a defining moment for the company's AI ambitions.
