Pear Therapeutics Inc Class A

A coalition of civil rights organizations has accused social media platforms of spreading &#8220;digital voting disinformation.&#8221; The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40864530/mark-zuckerberg-says-he-is-done-apologizing-reveals-one-of-the-biggest-mistakes-of-his-career">group is urging companies</a> like Elon Musk&#8216;s X and Mark Zuckerberg&#8216;s Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) to take action.
What Happened: Maya Wiley, the President and CEO of The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, has called upon social media companies to address the issue of &#8220;digital voting disinformation.&#8221;
The coalition, representing over 200 civil rights groups and other organizations, is demanding that these companies clearly distinguish between fact and fiction.
&#8220;There is still time for social media companies to step up and do what is right,&#8221; Wiley said in a statement on Monday.
She emphasized that social media companies should be more vigilant in separating fact from fiction and that they have the power to balance free speech rights with verification, links, labeling, and ensuring algorithms demote dangerous disinformation.
Wiley&#8217;s call to action comes in the wake of a surge in false information during the recent hurricanes.
The coalition is urging social media companies to establish and enforce civic and election policies, address AI-generated and manipulated media, resource election teams to protect against voting disinformation, limit rampant resharing of voting disinformation, and amplify authoritative and truthful information on voting and the election.

Why It Matters: The issue of misinformation on social media platforms has been a recurring concern. In August, Meta Platforms successfully defended against a lawsuit from an anti-vaccine group led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., which accused the company of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40298698/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-platforms-triumphs-over-independent-presidential-candidate-robert-kennedy-jr-s">censorship over vaccine misinformation</a>.
Meanwhile, Musk faces scrutiny from the UK Parliament regarding how his platform, X, manages content moderation and the use of algorithms in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/40781224/elon-musk-to-be-summoned-by-uk-parliament-over-role-of-social-media-platform-x">spreading harmful material</a>. 
Additionally, Zuckerberg recently expressed his frustration over taking responsibility for issues beyond his control, signaling a shift in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40864530/mark-zuckerberg-says-he-is-done-apologizing-reveals-one-of-the-biggest-mistakes-of-his-career">how Meta may handle future controversies</a>.

Elon Musk And Mark Zuckerberg Urged To Tackle 'Voting Disinformation' As Civil Rights Groups Sound Alarm On Social Media Misinformation Ahead Of 2024 Election

MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) founder Michael Saylor hinted at leaving all his assets for the betterment of &#8220;civilization&#8221; after death, in the absence of a family and children.
What Happened: During a recent interview with journalist Madison Reidy, the Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) evangelist struck a sentimental note when questioned about his desired legacy.
&#8220;I'm a single guy with no children— when I'm gone, I'm gone. Just like Satoshi [Nakamoto] left a million Bitcoin to the universe, I'm leaving whatever I've got to the civilization,&#8221; Saylor responded, drawing an equivalence with the accomplishments of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/satoshi-nakamoto">towering cryptocurrency figure</a>.
Like his other bullish takes on Bitcoin, here again, Saylor likened the top cryptocurrency to steel, which would form the basis of something &#8220;much grander&#8221; in the twenty-first century.

Why It Matters: These remarks aligned with what Saylor said during the Bitcoin 2024 conference earlier this year.
"When I'm gone, my stock, my shares, my assets flow into a public charity whose mission is to support Bitcoin and the adoption of Bitcoin forever,&#8221; the Bitcoin billionaire said.

Michael Saylor Wants To Give Away His Assets 'Just Like Satoshi Left A Million Bitcoin To The Universe:' 'I'm Leaving Whatever I've Got To The Civilization'

Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>), took to social media on Tuesday to criticize Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) for rebranding its Copilot as &#8220;agents.&#8221;
What Happened: Benioff described this move as a sign of &#8220;panic mode&#8221; and called Copilot a failure due to Microsoft&#8217;s lack of data, metadata, and enterprise security models. He argued that these deficiencies lead to inaccuracies and data leaks, forcing customers to create their own large language models (LLMs).
Benioff likened Microsoft&#8217;s Copilot to the discontinued &#8220;Clippy&#8221; Microsoft Office assistant, suggesting that it fails to provide real corporate intelligence. In contrast, he praised Salesforce&#8217;s Agentforce, stating it is transforming businesses by autonomously managing sales, service, marketing, analytics, and commerce. He emphasized that Agentforce integrates data, LLMs, workflows, and security into a single Customer 360 platform, which he believes represents the true potential of AI.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters: Benioff&#8217;s comments highlight the ongoing rivalry <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/10/41428765/microsoft-salesforce-battle-heats-up-as-ai-agent-technology-takes-center-stage">between Salesforce and Microsoft</a> in the AI technology sector. Recently, Microsoft announced during its &#8220;AI Tour&#8221; event in London that businesses will soon be able to develop autonomous AI agents through its Copilot Studio platform. This technology aims to streamline enterprise functions by allowing organizations to create AI-driven agents tailored to their needs. 
Benioff&#8217;s critique of Microsoft&#8217;s Copilot is not new. Last month, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40954193/salesforce-ceo-marc-benioff-slams-microsofts-copilot-compares-it-to-failed-clippy-assistant-like-wer">compared it to Clippy,</a> stating that customers have not derived value from it, likening it to selling &#8220;science projects to companies.&#8221; His remarks underscore the competitive landscape as both companies strive to dominate the AI agent technology market.

'Copilot's A Flop Because Microsoft Lacks The Data,' Salesforce CEO Slams Rebranding Of AI Tool To 'Agents:' 'That's Panic Mode'

The United States is reportedly on the verge of implementing new restrictions on American investments in China&#8217;s artificial intelligence sector. This development comes as part of an effort to curb the potential enhancement of China&#8217;s military capabilities through U.S. expertise.
What Happened: The impending regulations are under final review and are expected to be released soon. These rules stem from an executive order issued by President Joe Biden in August. The Office of Management and Budget is currently reviewing the rules, a step that typically precedes their release within a week, Reuters reported on Monday.
Laura Black, a former Treasury official, highlighted the strategic timing of these regulations, which come just ahead of the Nov. 5 U.S. presidential election. The Treasury Department had previously issued draft rules in June, inviting public feedback and outlining specific exceptions.
The proposed regulations focus on investments in AI, semiconductors, microelectronics, and quantum computing. They require U.S. investors to notify the Treasury Department about certain transactions and specify prohibited AI system uses and computing power thresholds.e

Black anticipates that the final rules will offer clarity on AI coverage and investment thresholds. Exceptions may include publicly traded securities, specific limited partnerships, and syndicated debt financings.
The Treasury Department has yet to respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> queries.
Why It Matters: The U.S. restrictions on AI investments in China come amid a backdrop of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/08/40553145/despite-us-limits-on-chinas-access-to-nvidia-chips-tech-titans-like-alibaba-and-tencent-ramp-up-ai-i">increased Chinese investment</a> in AI infrastructure. Despite U.S. sanctions, Chinese tech giants like Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>), Tencent, and Baidu Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) have significantly ramped up their AI investments. In the first half of 2024, these companies invested 50 billion Chinese yuan ($7 billion), a substantial increase from the previous year, focusing on processors and infrastructure for AI training.
Moreover, Chinese AI firms, including startups and giants like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41420451/openais-chinese-cousins-alibaba-and-bytedance-are-slashing-ai-costs-and-defying-us-chip-sanctions-be">Alibaba and ByteDance</a>, are making strides in reducing AI costs. They are optimizing hardware and focusing on smaller data sets to defy U.S. chip sanctions.

Ford Motor Co&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) model year 2025 Mustang Mach-E will start at $36,495, much lower than the starting price of the model year 2024 version of the SUV, the company said on Monday.
What Happened: &#8220;For the 2025 Ford Mustang Mach-E, we&#8217;ve made some big updates based on customer requests: added a heatpump, relocated the shifter for more console space, an optional sport appearance package, plus #BlueCruise 1.5 with automatic lane changes,&#8221; Ford CEO Jim Farley said on social media platform X.
The 2025 Mustang Mach-E will go on sale in early 2025 and will be available in three new color options including Molten Magenta Metallic Tinted Clearcoat, Velocity Blue Metallic, and Desert Sand.&nbsp;The company has also introduced three new wheel designs. 
The starting price on the vehicle, Ford said, will be $36,495, 8.8% lower than the starting price of model year 2024 Mach-E.

Why It Matters: The Mach-E was Ford&#8217;s best-selling EV in the U.S. in the last quarter. The company sold 13,392 Mach-E SUVs in the three months through the end of September, accounting for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41179283/fords-us-ev-sales-gather-pace-in-q3-even-as-its-best-seller-mustang-mach-e-suv-slows-down">57% of its overall EV sales in the period</a>. In fact, it was the second best-selling electric SUV in the third quarter in the U.S., after Tesla Inc.&#8217;s Model Y.
The Tesla Model Y is the EV giant&#8217;s best-selling offering. It starts at $44,990 in the U.S. for its cheapest variant. 
Ford&#8217;s EV segment called Model E, however, continues to accumulate losses. For the whole year, Ford expects to incur a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40525705/fords-e-transit-van-could-be-its-golden-goose-until-new-evs-start-rolling-out-in-2026">loss of $5 billion to $5.5 billion within the EV segment.</a>

Dow Dips Over 300 Points As Investors Optimism Declines: Fear Index Moves To 'Greed' Zone

Former President Donald Trump's unconventional campaign stop at a McDonald's drive-thru gave the Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) community an opportunity to flex their meme muscle, as they used clever wordplays to call attention to the ecosystem's cryptocurrency tokens.
What happened: The Republican presidential nominee <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41419892/trump-turns-up-to-serve-fries-at-mcdonalds-i-could-do-this-all-day-i-wouldnt-mind-this-job">was seen serving customers and operating the fry cooker</a> at the fast food joint in an effort to court working-class voters.
While the gimmick, or whatever one may call it, was for political reasons, the passionate Shiba Inu community used it to market meme coins associated with the project.
One such member, with the pseudonym Maximous Shibarium on X, said, "I prefer my meat with BONE," referring to BoneShibaSwap (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">BONE</a>).

Trump's McDonald's Visit Has Shiba Inu Community Flaunting Its Meme Game —  Kaal Dhairya Chimes In With 'One Shib At A Time' Reference

Elon Musk, Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) are facing a lawsuit filed by Alcon Entertainment, alleging copyright infringement <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41350962/tesla-key-exec-says-we-robot-event-had-1-300-perfectly-safe-autonomous-trips-driving-over-2-000-gues">during Tesla&#8217;s robotaxi event</a>.
What Happened: The Los Angeles-based production company, known for &#8220;Blade Runner 2049,&#8221; has accused them of using an AI image generator to create promotional art for Tesla&#8217;s &#8220;We, Robot&#8221; event, <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/21/24276092/alcon-entertainment-blade-runner-2049-tesla-musk-warner-bros-discovery-copyright">reported</a> The Verge.
The artwork allegedly bears a striking resemblance to&nbsp;stills from the 2017 sci-fi&nbsp;film, Blade Runner 2049, the copyright of which is owned by Alcon.
The lawsuit claims that Tesla and Warner Bros. sought permission&nbsp;to use imagery from the&nbsp;film just hours before the event, which was held&nbsp;on the Warner Bros. lot&nbsp;in California.
See Also:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41420451/openais-chinese-cousins-alibaba-and-bytedance-are-slashing-ai-costs-and-defying-us-chip-sanctions-be?itm_source=parsely-api" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">OpenAI&#8217;s Chinese Cousins Alibaba, And ByteDance Are Slashing AI Costs And Defying US Chip Sanctions: Beijing&#8217;s Strength Is To &#8216;Build Fast, Build Reliably And Build Cheap&#8217;</a>
However, Alcon denied the request due to concerns about being associated with Musk and Tesla, citing Musk&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37301290/elon-musk-is-still-attempting-to-defend-hateful-speech-amid-xs-growing-pains-and-public-backlash-rep">controversial behavior</a>, which they viewed as detrimental to their brand.
&#8220;Any prudent brand considering any Tesla partnership has to take Musk's massively amplified, highly politicized, capricious and arbitrary behavior, which sometimes veers into hate speech, into account,&#8221; the suit states. &#8220;Alcon did not want BR2049 to be affiliated with Musk, Tesla, or any Musk company, for all of these reasons.&#8221;
Despite Alcon&#8217;s refusal, Tesla allegedly used&nbsp;shots from Blade Runner 2049&nbsp;to create a stylized image displayed prominently during the event. Alcon also alleged that it was not informed about any agreements between Tesla and Warner Bros. that were necessary before the event.
The production company believes that these agreements&nbsp;included a promotional element that connected Tesla&#8217;s&nbsp;Cybercab with one or more&nbsp;films from the studio&#8217;s catalog.
The lawsuit does not specify the amount of damages sought, but it asserts that Musk, Tesla, and Warner Bros. were aware of&nbsp;the unauthorized nature of the&nbsp;image and its improper use.
Tesla and WBD did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comments.
Why It Matters: At the Tesla &#8220;We, Robot&#8221; event earlier this month, the EV giant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41284847/tesla-reveals-two-seater-cybercab-that-drives-itself">unveiled&nbsp;its two-seater robotaxi</a>, the Cybercab. The event also featured the company&#8217;s humanoid robots.
Following the highly anticipated Robotaxi Day, analysts suggest that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41295072/tesla-robotaxi-day-event-more-fanfare-than-substance-8-analysts-on-cybercab-optimus">Tesla&#8217;s stock may continue to decline</a> due to the absence of clear business plans for robotaxis and the lack of updates on a more affordable production vehicle.
The Optimus robots came under fire recently when it was disclosed that engineers were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41354482/tesla-engineer-admits-optimus-robots-were-human-assisted-to-some-extent-at-robotaxi-unveiling-event">operating them remotely</a> during a demonstration. The event featured the robots displaying their skills by dancing and serving drinks, leading some critics to describe the presentation as deceptive.
Despite criticism and skepticism surrounding Tesla&#8217;s Optimus robots, Nvidia Corp. executive Rev Lebaredian <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41401752/nvidia-executive-defends-teslas-optimus-robots-amid-criticism-thats-a-huge-advancement-not-something">defended the technology</a>, underscoring the complexity and technological prowess involved in controlling these robots.

3M Gears Up For Q3 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) recent unveiling of its robotaxi has left investors unimpressed, leading to concerns about the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41436349/tesla-q3-earnings-preview-analyst-says-1-8-million-unit-estimate-hittable-for-2024-">company&#8217;s future growth prospects</a>.
What Happened: The lack of clarity surrounding the robotaxi technology has shifted the focus back to Tesla&#8217;s core operations, according to Jefferies, <a href="https://www.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/tesla-looks-like-an-imbalanced-vc-portfolio-jefferies-says-3674229?ref=biztoc.com">reported</a> Investing.com on Monday. This has raised concerns about the company&#8217;s governance and funding prospects in the medium term.
Jefferies, while raising Tesla&#8217;s price target to $195 from $165, has maintained a Neutral rating. The firm predicts an increase in cash flow over the next two years but warns of &#8220;subdued growth&#8221; for at least two years due to the aging of Tesla&#8217;s core models and the company&#8217;s struggle to update its vehicle catalog.
The brokerage expressed disappointment with Tesla&#8217;s Cybercab reveal, citing a lack of &#8220;tangible progress&#8221; on the technology and minimal details on income generation plans. This has refocused attention on Tesla&#8217;s core auto business, which is grappling with slowing deliveries and is expected to record its first annual drop in deliveries in 2024.

Jefferies analysts described Tesla as an &#8220;imbalanced VC portfolio solely funded by an auto business under pressure.&#8221; The company is set to report its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41436349/tesla-q3-earnings-preview-analyst-says-1-8-million-unit-estimate-hittable-for-2024-">third-quarter earnings on Wednesday</a>. Tesla&#8217;s stock took a hit earlier in October following the underwhelming robotaxi reveal and missed third-quarter delivery expectations.
Why It Matters: Tesla&#8217;s recent challenges are part of a larger narrative. The company has been offering discounts of up to $4,000 on select Model Y and Model 3 vehicles in the U.S. in a bid to avoid its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41443856/tesla-offers-discounts-of-up-to-4k-on-select-model-3-y-vehicles-as-it-looks-to-avert-1st-ever-declin">first-ever decline in annual deliveries</a>. 
The company&#8217;s third-quarter earnings, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41436349/tesla-q3-earnings-preview-analyst-says-1-8-million-unit-estimate-hittable-for-2024-">which are due to be reported</a>, could provide more insight into demand and the strategy for the upcoming Cybercab.
Some analysts have also noted a shift in focus back to Tesla&#8217;s core business fundamentals after Robotaxi Day, suggesting that the company may be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41429320/while-elon-musk-likely-to-face-questions-about-robotaxi-during-earnings-call-some-a">redirecting its attention</a> away from the underwhelming robotaxi presentation.
Price Action: Tesla&#8217;s stock closed at $218.85 on Monday, down 0.84% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock slipped an additional 0.16%. Year to date, Tesla&#8217;s stock has fallen 11.90%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
