Marc Benioff, CEO of&nbsp;Salesforce&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>), has dismissed fears that artificial intelligence (AI) will lead to mass layoffs of white-collar workers.
What Happened: Benioff shared his views on AI during an&nbsp;interview at the 2025 AI&nbsp;for Good Global Summit, as reported by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/marc-benioff-ai-white-collar-jobs-salesforce-2025-7">Business Insider</a>. He stated that AI would not lead to a significant reduction in white-collar jobs but would instead lead to &#8220;a radical augmentation of the workforce.&#8221;
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/CRM" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CRM stock here</a>.
Benioff&#8217;s viewpoint differs from that of other tech leaders. For instance, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has warned that AI could potentially eliminate as much as 50% of all entry-level white-collar jobs over the next five years.
The Salesforce CEO urged people to move beyond this &#8220;fear,&#8221; stating that his customers aren&#8217;t laying off employees due to AI advancements. Instead, he sees AI as a tool for amplifying the capabilities of businesses, particularly small and medium-sized ones.
Despite the differing opinions, Benioff has put a pause on hiring engineers, lawyers as well and customer service agents at Salesforce for the year, to allow for the full integration of AI productivity. However, the company is increasing its sales-related hires due to the growing demand for AI deployment amid anticipation for major growth in small and medium businesses.

Why It Matters: Benioff&#8217;s stance on AI&#8217;s role in the workforce is not new. In June, he revealed in an&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46135663/marc-benioff-says-ai-now-handles-up-to-50-of-work-at-salesforce-could-an-ai-agent-eventually-take-over-his-job">interview</a>&nbsp;that AI was handling up to 50% of tasks at Salesforce, boosting productivity in key functions. This aligns with his current view of AI as a workforce augmenter.
However, not all tech leaders share Benioff&#8217;s optimism. Last week, Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46380955/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-warns-ai-could-replace-jobs-if-innovation-stalls-if-the-world-runs-out-of-ideas">warned</a>&nbsp;that AI could replace jobs if industries fail to innovate. Similarly, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44522899/anthropic-ceo-says-ai-could-write-90-of-code-in-3-to-6-months-warns-every-industry-will-be-affected">predicted</a>&nbsp;in March 2025 that AI could handle nearly all coding tasks within a year.
As AI continues to evolve, the debate on its impact on the workforce is likely to intensify. The differing views of tech leaders underscore the need for businesses to carefully navigate the integration of AI into their operations.

French&nbsp;prosecutors have initiated a criminal investigation into&nbsp;X, a company owned by billionaire&nbsp;and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk, for allegedly manipulating its algorithms to interfere with foreign affairs.
What Happened: The investigation is centered around whether X violated French law by altering its algorithms and illicitly extracting user data. This probe follows a previous inquiry initiated in January, based on complaints from a lawmaker and a senior civil servant, as stated by Magistrate Laure Beccuau, <a href="https://www.politico.eu/article/france-opens-criminal-probe-into-x-for-algorithm-manipulation/">reported</a> Politico.
The initial complaint alleged that X was disseminating a large volume of hateful, racist, anti-LGBT+, and homophobic political content aimed at distorting democratic discourse in France. On Thursday, two French parliamentarians referred the platform to France's digital regulator, Arcom, after X's AI chatbot, Grok, published anti-Semitic and racist posts.
The initial inquiry was triggered by a complaint filed by a lawmaker and a senior civil servant whose identity has not been disclosed. The investigation also includes the actions of&nbsp;Grok, an artificial intelligence chatbot that responds to user queries on X, which led to two French parliamentarians referring the platform to France&#8217;s digital regulator,&nbsp;Arcom, for anti-Semitic and racist posts.
X did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment.

While the probe originally centered on the platform's role in spreading misinformation, it was broadened in January to scrutinize X's algorithms following Elon Musk's decision to host and stream an interview with Alice Weidel, the leader of Germany's far-right party.
Earlier this month, Linda Yaccarino, the CEO of X,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/social-media/25/07/46329375/x-ceo-yaccarino-splits-with-elon-musk-after-two-years-says-best-is-yet-to-come-for-social-platform"> parted ways with the company</a> after a two-year tenure. Amid these changes, the current investigation into alleged algorithm manipulation adds another layer of complexity to the challenges faced by X.

Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang says President Donald Trump's effort to "re-industrialize" technology manufacturing is "exactly the right thing," a "smart move" that will end the nation's "sole dependency" on overseas suppliers.
What Happened: In a CNN interview <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/07/13/world/video/gps0713-nvidia-us-china-ai">broadcast</a> Sunday, Huang warned the United States is "missing that entire band in our industries," which is the craft of actually building chips, servers and other hardware — and said restoring that capacity would spread middle-class jobs beyond Ph.D. labs.
"That passion, the skill, the craft of making things&#8230; the ability to make things is valuable for economic growth, it's value for a stable society with people who can create a wonderful life and a wonderful career without having to get a PhD in physics," Huang explained.
His praise comes as the White House leans on tariffs and subsidies to pull factories back onshore. In April, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump cannot rely on China for critical tech and temporarily waived duties on smartphones so companies could shift production.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46385153/trumps-spending-bill-limits-student-loans-sparks-funding-gap-concerns">See Also: Trump&#8217;s Spending Bill Limits Student Loans, Sparks Funding Gap Concerns</a>
Trump also announced in March that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46283410/taiwan-semiconductor-shifts-focus-100-billion-usa-expansion">invest at least $100 billion</a> to build five U.S. chip plants, a commitment he said would solve a major supply-chain risk. The TSMC pledge follows similar multibillion-dollar promises from Samsung, Intel and Micron as part of a broader manufacturing drive.
Why It Matters: Analysts say the campaign is reshaping the chip market but raising costs. BlackRock's Larry Fink recently cautioned that tariffs alone will not <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44661665/manufacturing-resurgence-not-without-a-workforce-says-blackrocks-fink">cure the labor shortages</a> hobbling a full revival.
Huang spoke after a World Economic Forum survey found 41% of employers expect to shrink staff by 2030 because of automation, a trend he insists new roles will offset. Huang warned industries that if they stop innovating and generating new ideas, AI-driven productivity gains <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46380955/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-warns-ai-could-replace-jobs-if-innovation-stalls-if-the-world-runs-out-of-ideas">will cost workers</a> their jobs.
He acknowledged hurdles but argued that "ecosystems of industries and manufacturing" at home will ease geopolitical pressure on Taiwan, whose foundries build most of Nvidia's advanced processors.

Financial expert&nbsp;Robert Kiyosaki&nbsp;said Sunday that he would buy more Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) as the apex cryptocurrency continued its gravity-defying run on price charts.
What Happened: Kiyosaki took to X to celebrate the ongoing surge in Bitcoin&#8217;s value.
&#8220;Going to buy one&nbsp;more Bitcoin asap. It's never&nbsp;been easier to become rich…&nbsp;even a millionaire,&#8221; &nbsp;the author of the best-selling book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" said.
Kiyosaki urged his followers to study the asset and see if Bitcoin is what they need to become millionaires themselves.

'Rich Dad Poor Dad' Author Robert Kiyosaki Says He Will Buy 'One More' Bitcoin ASAP As BTC Breaks $122,000

Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya sparked speculations regarding a potential megamerger between Elon Musk&#8217;s biggest ventures, xAI, SpaceX, and, of course, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">TSLA stock here.</a>
What Happened: On Sunday, in a post on X, Palihapitiya made the case for a merger cascade between Musk&#8217;s ventures, xAI, which owns X.com, Grok, and more, with his space exploration, autonomous vehicles and EV plays.
He suggests that merging the three could give rise to a singular, transformative entity centered on &#8220;consciousness in all of its forms,&#8221; one that spans the physical, digital, and extraterrestrial realms.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46380521/elon-musk-rejects-reports-that-xai-is-looking-to-raise-additional-funds-at-200-billion-valuation-we-have-plenty-of-capital">Elon Musk Rejects Reports That xAI Is Looking To Raise Additional Funds At $200 Billion Valuation: &#8216;We Have Plenty Of Capital&#8217;</a>
&#8220;I&#8217;m here for it,&#8221; Palihapitiya says, adding that the outcome would be &#8220;pretty logical&#8221; in his opinion, with all three companies now centering around AI. 
This comes amid growing interest in Musk&#8217;s expanding empire, and how artificial intelligence can bind them all together. Tesla is leaning heavily into self-driving and robotics, SpaceX is integrating machine learning into space navigation and satellite networks, while xAI, Musk&#8217;s latest venture, focuses on building artificial general intelligence.
In his post, Palihapitiya uses the term &#8220;industrial logic,&#8221; suggesting that he sees strategic alignment with such a merger. From Tesla&#8217;s hardware and xAI&#8217;s software, to SpaceX&#8217;s infrastructure plays, all aligned in a single, vertically integrated platform.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">AI may be the industrial logic that can drive the following merger cascade: xAI —&gt; Tesla —&gt; SpaceX This would be pretty logical imo. One company focused on consciousness in all of its forms &#8211; physical, digital, beyond earth. I'm here for it.

Why It Matters: Nearly five years ago, Musk himself had approved of this idea to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/20/12/18915031/elon-musk-floats-idea-of-starting-one-parent-company-to-hold-tesla-spacex-boring-neuralink">form a holding company</a> named X, which would work as the parent company for his many ventures, such as Tesla, SpaceX, Boring and Neuralink.
This comes just months after Musk&#8217;s xAI <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44549314/elon-musk-acquires-his-own-social-media-platform-x-through-xai-in-33-billion-deal-says-combined-entity-now-worth-80-billion">acquired his social media platform</a>, X.com, formerly known as Twitter, in an all-stock deal valued at $33 billion. 
Musk&#8217;s SpaceX now plans to invest $2 billion into xAI, according <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/20/12/18915031/elon-musk-floats-idea-of-starting-one-parent-company-to-hold-tesla-spacex-boring-neuralink">to</a> a report by the Wall Street Journal on Sunday, as part of a $5 billion funding round. This values the company at $113 billion.
Price Action: Tesla shares were up 1.17% on Friday, trading at $313.51, and are up 0.85% after hours.
