Michael Saylor's Strategy is signaling it may sell bitcoin to cover dividend obligations, even as the company reported a staggering twelve point five four billion dollar loss in the first quarter. It's a significant moment β the firm built its identity on accumulating bitcoin, so any reversal of that posture raises real questions about the sustainability of that bet.
Meanwhile, in a San Francisco courtroom, OpenAI president Greg Brockman wrapped his testimony with a striking claim β that during a heated meeting, Elon Musk's behavior left him genuinely fearing physical confrontation. Brockman also described subsequent efforts by Musk to remove board members, painting a picture of a deeply fractured founding relationship that goes well beyond a simple business dispute.
And on a question with stakes for everyone, The Economist is out with a detailed look at how AI tools could lower the barrier for bioterrorism, giving individuals access to knowledge that was once confined to specialized labs. It's a sobering reminder that the same capabilities driving productivity gains carry risks that regulators and developers are still struggling to fully reckon with.
