Brex Inc., a highly valued startup that makes software for finance professionals, is turning to the same artificial intelligence tool behind ChatGPT for a service that can answer questions about corporate budgets, policy and spending.
The chat features are currently being tested and will be released widely this summer, the company said Tuesday. The service relies on OpenAI’s GPT language generation system — the same software that was used to build ChatGPT, the popular AI chatbot released in November.
