Payments giant Visa said Wednesday that it has embedded its payment network inside of ChatGPT, empowering the chatbot to independently shop and complete transactions on behalf of its user.

Here’s the thinking of a federal judge who approved the settlement covering merchants who sued Visa and Mastercard over interchange fees.
