BIG LAB UPDATES · 22 OCTOBER 2026

OpenAI's models are coming to Google Cloud

1 source · Part of the 22 October 2026 edition

OpenAI is bringing its frontier models and Codex agent workflows to Google Cloud's Model Garden, so companies that already build on Google Cloud can use them there.

Why it mattersThis mainly matters to larger firms tied to one cloud provider, but it shows the big labs now sell through each other's platforms, which means more choice for buyers.
