🛎️ Walmart Sells on Chatgpt

Plus: The Smart Warehouse Age, Salesforce Crowns Itself

Good Morning, AI Enthusiasts!

Every system is learning to speak. The moment when intelligence stops being a feature and becomes the fabric of how the world moves, stores, and sells.

RETAIL

Walmart Joins ChatGPT in a Deal That Rewires Retail

📌 What’s happening: Walmart, the world’s largest retailer, has partnered with OpenAI to let users buy products directly inside ChatGPT. Shoppers will soon be able to “chat and buy,” turning conversations into instant checkout experiences with no search bar, no cart page, and no friction. This is the clearest signal that OpenAI is no longer just building an assistant but a new kind of commerce interface.

🧠 How this hits reality: This move is far beyond a simple Shopify integration. Walmart’s 240 million weekly customers now represent OpenAI’s new distribution channel, and the connection works both ways. Amazon’s search-to-cart funnel may need to be rewritten in the age of conversational AI. For OpenAI, it is a direct path from content to commerce, giving it access to transaction data and tighter control over margins. For everyone else in retail tech, it is a wake-up call.

🛎️ Key takeaway: ChatGPT just turned into a shopping mall, and every e-commerce site is now renting space in Sam Altman’s head.

ROBOT

Dexory’s 46-Foot Robots Raise $165M to End Warehouse Guesswork

📌 What’s happening: UK startup Dexory has raised $165 million to expand its fleet of towering warehouse robots. The funding, which combines equity and debt, comes from investors such as Atomico and DB Schenker. Dexory’s robots, standing between 10 and 46 feet tall, move autonomously through storage aisles equipped with LiDAR, RFID, and AI-powered vision systems. They continuously scan and map warehouses, creating a real-time digital twin that provides a complete and constantly updated view of inventory.

🧠 How this hits reality: Dexory’s technology is quietly eliminating the need for manual audits in logistics. Its DexoryView platform integrates with existing warehouse management systems and automatically reconciles every barcode, pallet, and location. This means inventory counts are ten times faster and 14 percent more accurate, saving operators hours of labor each day. For major clients such as DHL, GE Appliances, and Mærsk, it represents a long-awaited leap from reactive tracking to proactive intelligence. For smaller operators, it signals that traditional warehouse intuition is becoming obsolete as AI begins to make operational decisions in real time.

🛎️ Key takeaway: The warehouse is no longer a workplace, it’s becoming a living dataset, and Dexory just sold the body that holds the brain.

NEW LAUNCH

Salesforce Crowns Itself King of the Agentic Era

📌 What’s happening: At Dreamforce 2025, Marc Benioff declared that the “agentic revolution” has arrived, and naturally, Salesforce is leading it. The company unveiled Agentforce 360, an AI platform designed to help enterprises build and manage AI agents that “elevate people, not replace them.” The system already powers Reddit’s ad support bots and Williams-Sonoma’s customer chat agents, both claiming major efficiency gains despite a 70% agent failure rate still haunting the category. To seal the crown, Salesforce tied up fresh deals with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Stripe, embedding itself deep in the emerging agentic stack.

🧠 How this hits reality: Benioff isn’t waiting for the market to mature, he’s force-naming the era. “Agentic Enterprise” is Salesforce’s way of rewriting the CRM playbook before Microsoft or HubSpot can catch up. The company wants to be the operating system of automation, the infrastructure layer where every semi-competent AI agent lives, dies, and bills hourly. But with most agents still fumbling basic tasks, Salesforce’s urgency feels less visionary and more defensive, a bid to stay relevant as OpenAI, Anthropic, and others push enterprise users closer to direct model access.

🛎️ Key takeaway: Salesforce is rushing to rule an empire that doesn’t yet exist, but if it works, every enterprise agent may soon owe its paycheck to Benioff.
