This new capability allows users to complete purchases seamlessly within the chat interface, integrating with major e-commerce platforms like <strong>Etsy<\/strong> (<a href=\"\/stock\/ETSY\">ETSY<\/a>) and <strong>Shopify<\/strong> (<a href=\"\/stock\/SHOP%5D\">SHOP<\/a>. The system is powered by the <strong>Agentic Commerce Protocol<\/strong>, developed in collaboration with <strong>Stripe<\/strong>, aiming to streamline the shopping experience and enable more merchants and developers to participate in AI-driven commerce. OpenAI reportedly plans to generate revenue from this initiative by taking a commission on sales made through ChatGPT, marking a strategic shift to diversify its income beyond subscriptions.<\/p>\n<p>In the logistics sector, <strong>Amazon<\/strong> (<a href=\"\/stock\/AMZN\">AMZN<\/a>) has announced a significant investment of <strong>$1.9 billion<\/strong> into its <strong>Delivery Service Partner (DSP) program<\/strong>. This latest infusion of capital is part of a broader commitment, bringing Amazon&#39;s total investment in the program to <strong>$16.7 billion<\/strong> over the past seven years. The funds are anticipated to help DSPs increase driver pay to a national average of nearly <strong>$23 per hour<\/strong>, depending on location and DSP, while also enhancing safety initiatives and providing new services for its partners. This investment underscores Amazon&#39;s continuous efforts to strengthen its delivery network and support the small businesses that operate its last-mile services.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <strong>Tesla&#39;s<\/strong> (<a href=\"\/stock\/TSLA\">TSLA<\/a>) <strong>Full Self-Driving (FSD)<\/strong> system is under renewed pressure from U.S. lawmakers. Two Democratic Senators have formally called upon auto safety regulators to launch an investigation into the FSD system. This demand follows reports and videos indicating that the system has exhibited failures in recognizing and reacting appropriately to railroad crossings. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has acknowledged awareness of these incidents and confirmed ongoing communication with the manufacturer, continuously analyzing consumer complaints to identify potential vehicle safety defect trends.<\/p>\n<p>In international finance, <strong>Switzerland<\/strong> and the <strong>United States<\/strong> have reached a joint understanding on currency policy. The two nations issued a statement reaffirming their commitment to avoiding exchange rate manipulation. The <strong>Swiss National Bank<\/strong> has reconfirmed that its monetary policy will remain focused on maintaining price stability and will not target exchange rates for competitive purposes. This agreement follows previous instances where Switzerland was placed on a U.S. Treasury watchlist for its foreign exchange policies, and the joint declaration aims to foster transparent exchange rate practices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Takeaways OpenAI has launched an Instant Checkout feature within ChatGPT, integrating with e-commerce platforms Etsy (ETSY) and
