Google releases Gemini 3 to compete directly with OpenAI’s ChatGPT
The post Google releases Gemini 3 to compete directly with OpenAI’s ChatGPT appeared com. Google on Tuesday released its newest artificial intelligence model, Gemini 3, going straight after OpenAI’s ChatGPT as the arms race between the two tech giants gets louder. The announcement, shared through multiple blog posts by Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai, marks another direct attempt by the company to fight for control in a space OpenAI first dominated in 2022. The model begins rolling out today to a limited number of paying users and will spread more widely over the next few weeks. Gemini 3 has been fully embedded into the Gemini app, AI Overviews, AI Mode, and enterprise software. Sundar said Gemini 3 helps users “get what you need with less prompting,” adding that it can now better understand context, depth, and intent. The goal? Reduce friction and outmaneuver OpenAI’s newer GPT-5 upgrades. Gemini 3 arrives as OpenAI updates GPT-5 and pushes user numbers Google said Gemini 3 is now running at “Google scale,” which translates to 650 million monthly users in the Gemini app and 2 billion users engaging monthly with AI Overviews. That still trails behind OpenAI’s own numbers from August, when it said ChatGPT had 700 million weekly users. Sundar, in another post, wrote, “It’s amazing to think that in just two years, AI has evolved from simply reading text and images to reading the room.” Gemini 3 replaces Gemini 2. 5, which launched eight months ago. Gemini 2. 0 came just eleven months before that. Meanwhile, OpenAI rolled out two updates to GPT-5 just last week, calling one “warmer, more intelligent, and better at following your instructions,” and the other “faster on simple tasks, more persistent on complex ones.” Demis Hassabis, the head of Google DeepMind, said Gemini 3 avoids the usual chatbot fluff: “trading cliché and flattery for genuine insight telling you what you need.

WTI strengthens as traders balance surplus forecasts and geopolitical shifts
The post WTI strengthens as traders balance surplus forecasts and geopolitical shifts appeared com. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Oil edges higher on Tuesday, trading around $60. 50 and up nearly 1. 35% on the day, despite ongoing worries about a widening supply surplus. Recent projections from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) have warned that global Oil markets are on track for a period of oversupply, with non-OPEC output growth and softer consumption expected to weigh on balances into early 2026. At the same time, geopolitical pressure has eased slightly after Russia’s Novorossiysk export operations resumed, removing part of the risk premium that had temporarily supported crude following last week’s disruption. Meanwhile, traders are closely watching the next round of US sanctions targeting Russian oil majors Rosneft and Lukoil, which are scheduled to take effect on November 21. US President Donald Trump has signaled he is prepared to sign legislation imposing broader sanctions on Russia, provided he retains final decision-making authority over any such measures. He added that it was “OK with me” that Republicans are drafting a bill aimed at countries that continue doing business with Moscow, citing Russia’s failure to show meaningful progress toward a Ukraine peace agreement. From a technical perspective, WTI continues to trade within a well-defined descending channel on the daily chart. The broader trend remains tilted to the downside as long as the channel’s upper boundary stays intact. Prices have now broken above the 21-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) near $59. 97, offering a mild improvement in near-term momentum. On the upside, the $61. 00-$61. 50 region acts as the first major barrier. This zone aligns with the descending channel’s upper trendline and a former horizontal support now acting as resistance, an area that has repeatedly capped gains since late October. A daily close above this region would be the first sign of a structural shift, opening.
