Picture

Hey folks, Nuked here! Let’s dive into some exciting tech news with a twist of humor and a love for all things digital.

Crossing Minds, a startup specializing in AI-powered recommendation systems for online shopping, announced that its team is moving to join OpenAI. This company was backed by big names like Index Ventures, Shopify, Plug and Play, and Radical Ventures, amassing over $13.5 million in funding across several rounds.

The company’s main gig was helping e-commerce brands enhance their personalization by analyzing customer behavior data to better understand shopping preferences—all without invading privacy. Their approach was about studying user actions on-site to offer smarter suggestions without compromising user data.

According to their co-founders, joining OpenAI is a chance to align their values with a mission committed to benefiting all of humanity through AI. They expressed enthusiasm about contributing their expertise and helping shape the future of artificial intelligence.

One of the co-founders, Alexandre Robicquet, now has a bio on LinkedIn indicating he’s working in ‘Research, Post-training and Agents at OpenAI.’ It’s uncertain if the entire team has moved over, but the company has stated they’re no longer accepting new clients. Previously, Crossing Minds served clients like Intuit, Anthropic, Udacity, and Chanel.

Meanwhile, other AI firms are also rapidly developing tools for e-commerce, from Google and Perplexity launching AI-based shopping features to startups like Daydream raising huge investments for AI shopping assistants. The industry is buzzing with innovations aimed at making online shopping smarter and more personalized.
