Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) will introduce Elon Musk-led artificial intelligence company xAI's Artificial Intelligence model Grok to select models of the Tesla line-up in the U.S.
Check out the current price of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA">TSLA stock here.</a>
What Happened: The EV giant will roll out Grok on select Tesla vehicles. Influencer Sawyer Merritt took to social media platform X on Sunday to outline the criteria for running Grok.
"For now, it&#8217;ll only be available to Teslas in the U.S. and with cars that have an AMD Ryzen chip," the influencer said in his post. He also outlined that users can check the settings menu on their Tesla to see what chip their cars are running.
"Teslas with Intel chips won&#8217;t be able to use Grok," Merritt added in the post. Grok will also be available in multiple voices, but it won't be able to issue commands to the vehicle, Merritt said.

Why It Matters: The news comes in as there has been considerable buzz around Musk exploring options to merge xAI with Tesla and SpaceX. Investor Chamath Palihapitiya thinks such a merger <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/07/46385300/tesla-xai-and-spacex-merger-chamath-palihapitiya-floats-industrial-logic-for-union-of-elon-musk-led-companies-this-would-be-pretty-logical">would be "logical."</a>

Will Your Tesla Car Support Grok? Only These Vehicles Will Be Able To Run Elon Musk-Led xAI's Latest AI Model

Personal finance author and radio host Dave Ramsey has highlighted the long-term consequences of filing for bankruptcy, particularly with obtaining a mortgage and purchasing a home.
What Happened: Ramsey pointed out the detrimental effects of bankruptcy on an individual&#8217;s financial standing, particularly regarding mortgage eligibility and homeownership, <a href="https://www.thestreet.com/real-estate/dave-ramsey-shares-harsh-truth-about-bankruptcy-mortgages-and-buying-a-home">reported</a> The Street.
He explained that filing for bankruptcy can severely damage a person&#8217;s credit score, which makes it harder to qualify for a mortgage or get a favorable interest rate, potentially pushing homeownership out of reach for several years.
According to Ramsey, bankruptcy can result in a significant reduction in credit scores, making it challenging for potential homebuyers to secure a mortgage loan or obtain a favorable interest rate. He cautioned that it could take several years for individuals who have filed for bankruptcy to recover financially and qualify for a mortgage.

&#8220;A bankruptcy is a huge red flag for mortgage lenders. While it&#8217;s not impossible to buy a home after going through bankruptcy, it could take one to four years before anyone will even think about letting you take out a mortgage,&#8221; Ramsey said.
Why It Matters: The rising cost of living and stagnant wages have made it increasingly difficult for Americans to manage their financial obligations. This has led to a surge in household debt levels, particularly among younger generations who are juggling student loans, retirement savings, and the challenges of buying a home in a tough housing market, as per the report.
Ramsey has previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/06/39169280/dave-ramsey-says-smart-people-dont-take-out-30-year-mortgages-if-you-cant-afford-a-home-on-a-15-">advocated for 15-year fixed-rate mortgages</a>, stating that &#8220;smart people&#8221; should not take out 30-year mortgages if they cannot afford a home on a 15-year mortgage.
Ramsey's financial wisdom comes from personal experience. At 26, he appeared successful with a booming real estate business and a lavish lifestyle, but it was all built on debt. When banks called in his loans, he was overwhelmed and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43171388/dave-ramsey-was-in-debt-up-to-his-eyeballs-sheriff-wanted-to-take-his-kids-crib-now-he-owns-600-million-in-real-estate-paid-for-in-cash">declared bankruptcy in 1988</a>, just as the sheriff was set to seize his assets.
Humbled and broken, Ramsey hit rock bottom and was forced to rebuild his life. That turning point sparked a spiritual and personal transformation, leading him to confront his past mistakes and start over with a new perspective.

Dave Ramsey Warns Bankruptcy Is 'Huge Red Flag' That Can Delay Homeownership By Years

President Donald Trump has proposed a blanket tariff rate of 15%-20% on most nations, a notable jump from the current 10% base amid an unexpected federal budget surplus in June, largely attributed to a surge in tariff receipts.
What Happened: The U.S. Treasury Department reported <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/11/treasury-posts-unexpected-surplus-in-june-as-tariff-receipts-surge.html">a</a> surplus of just over $27 billion in June, a stark contrast to May&#8217;s $316 billion deficit. Customs duties played a key role, totaling approximately $27 billion for the month, a staggering 301% increase from June 2024 figures. 
As Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research highlighted, Trump &#8220;must have loved the headline… &#8216;Treasury posts unexpected surplus in June as tariff receipts surge.&#8221;
Trump, in a telephone interview <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-tariffs-inflation-hasbro-ukraine-patriot-missiles-nato-russia-rcna218125">with</a> NBC News' &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221; moderator Kristen Welker, asserted that &#8220;The tariffs have been very well received.&#8221; He believes that if a 10% tariff can generate around $300 billion annually, a 20% rate could double that intake. 
However, experts caution against this aggressive approach. Yardeni noted that tariffs are essentially &#8220;a tax on U.S. importers,&#8221; which can erode corporate profit margins and profits. While rebounding productivity growth might offer some offset, the potential impact on businesses remains a significant concern.
Yardeni&#8217;s &#8220;humble advice to POTUS&#8221; serves as a stark warning: &#8220;Beware of hubris. Don't push your luck on tariffs. Also, don't mess with the Fed's independence. The Bond Vigilantes will push up bond yields.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The Federal Reserve, under Chair Jerome Powell, remains wary of tariffs&#8217; inflationary potential, further complicating Trump&#8217;s calls for interest rate cuts to ease the burden of servicing the national debt, which saw net interest payments of $84 billion in June.
As the minutes of the Fed's June meeting were released on Wednesday last week, the word <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46336115/as-trump-calls-for-3-percentage-point-rate-cut-too-late-jerome-powell-to-resign-june-fed-minutes-sh">"uncertainty" reigned supreme</a>. 
The words "uncertain" and "uncertainty" appeared 28 times in the June 17-18 meeting minutes, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell mentioned the two words 19 times.
Price Action: Meanwhile, the markets tumbled on Friday after scaling fresh highs over the last week. The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, fell on Friday. The SPY was down 0.35% at $623.62, while the QQQ declined 0.23% to $554.20, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.
On Monday, the futures of the S&amp;P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq 100 indices were trading lower.

The Democrats are concerned that the potential impact of Republican Medicaid cuts may not materialize in time to sway voters in the 2026 midterms.
What Happened:&nbsp;The Republicans have delayed the implementation of Medicaid cuts, which the Democrats were counting on to bolster their position in the upcoming midterms,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/07/13/dem-medicaid-midterms-00449115">reported</a>&nbsp;Politico. The GOP has postponed the implementation of work requirements until 2027 and delayed the financing changes to 2028. In the meantime, they've front-loaded their One Big Beautiful Bill Act with tax breaks that voters are expected to notice much sooner.
The delay has raised concerns among some Democrats that their Medicaid-centered messaging may fail to connect with voters ahead of the November 2026 elections. This could weaken their strategy to capitalize on the backlash against President Donald Trump's landmark legislation and build momentum for a Democratic surge.
&#8220;If we say &#8216;they took it from you,&#8217; but it hasn&#8217;t&nbsp;happened yet, it just complicates&nbsp;it,&#8221; California-based Democratic strategist Doug Herman expressed.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, Cherlynn Stevenson, a former Kentucky state representative&nbsp;said, "I think that there are some people who are like, ‘Well, I'm not on Medicaid, so it's not going to affect me.'"
Despite these concerns, the Democrats are persisting with their strategy of making Republicans&#8217;&nbsp;Medicaid reductions a central theme&nbsp;of their midterm messaging. They are targeting Republican strongholds in states like Kentucky, Florida, and Virginia. They are also organizing a series of roundtable discussions in Kentucky to examine the potential effects of the Republicans&#8217; proposed healthcare cuts.

Why It Matters: The delay in implementing the Medicaid cuts could significantly impact the Democrats&#8217; midterm strategy. However, most of the health care cuts included in the Republican megabill, such as provider tax reductions and new work requirements, aren't scheduled to take effect until after the midterm elections.
Meanwhile, Republicans are planning to capitalize on the popular elements of the legislation, such as&nbsp;a tax deduction on tips, to counter the Democrats. They have accused Democrats of resorting to &#8220;desperate and disgusting fear-mongering tactics.&#8221;
This development comes in the wake of several high-profile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46311721/elizabeth-warren-says-gop-chose-trump-over-american-people-slams-big-beautiful-bill-for-potentially-ushering-health-care-cuts-price-hikes">criticisms of the Republicans&#8217; &#8220;Big Beautiful Bill.&#8221; </a>Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers have voiced concerns about the potential consequences of the bill, warning of significant impacts on working American families.
Similarly, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46160881/bernie-sanders-slams-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-as-a-gift-for-billionaires-the-most-dangerous-piece-of-legislation-in-modern-history">criticized the bill</a> as a &#8220;gift to the billionaire class,&#8221; causing massive pain for millions of working-class American families.
Notably, the megabill is also the major cause of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46187403/elon-musk-is-unhappy-with-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-and-just-reminded-everyone-that-80-voted-for-a-new-party">public fallout between </a>Trump and Tesla Inc.

Democrats Fear GOP's Proposed Medicaid Cut Delay May Diminish Their Chances Of Swaying Voters In 2026 Midterm: 'It Just Complicates It'

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the depositary bank for the Company's ADS program, will arrange for the exchange of the current ADSs for the new ones.&nbsp; The Company's ADSs will continue to be traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol "NaaS."

Stanley Druckenmiller&#8216;s Duquesne Family Office LLC offloaded its stake in this famous artificial intelligence stock as it kept building a stake in this dividend-yielding tobacco company as of the end of the first quarter of 2025.
What Happened: Druckenmiller, who is the founder and the former chairman and president of Duquesne Family Office, reduced the fund&#8217;s holdings from 78 positions as of the fourth quarter of 2024 to 52 positions in the first quarter of 2025.
While the fund exited many companies and trimmed a lot of its positions, the most, so to speak, shocking exit was from the key AI player Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>).
Meanwhile, the fund has built a stake in Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PM#NYSE">PM</a>) since the second quarter of 2024 and now holds 1.105 million shares in the tobacco company, with products sold in over 180 countries.

Despite a reduction in its stake by 18% from the fourth to the first quarter, the value of Philip Morris increased $163 million to $175 million. Before this period, the fund last held the stock during the first quarter of 2016.
The stock represented 5.7% of the total holdings of the Duquesne Family Office and has a dividend yield of 3% as per the <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data. It has gained 48.56% on a year-to-date basis and 71.23% over a year.
On the other hand, the fund was holding Palantir from the first quarter of 2021 to the same quarter of 2023. It again bought a stake in the firm during the first quarter of 2024 before completely exiting the stock in the first quarter of 2025..
There is a reasonable chance that this selling activity in Palantir represented nothing more than simple profit-taking. This comes as the stock has risen 88.99% on a year-to-date basis and 395.64% over the last year.

Stanley Druckenmiller's Duquesne Dumps Palantir, Bets Big On This Dividend Play Which Has Surged Nearly 50% In 2025

Expro (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPRO#NYSE">XPRO</a>) has been awarded a major three-year contract by Woodside Petróleo Operaciones de México, S. de R.L. de C.V. (Woodside Energy) in support of the Trion deepwater oil and gas development offshore Mexico.
Under the agreement, Expro will provide industry-leading tubular running services (TRS) and cementing services for what will be Mexico's first deepwater oil production facility - a major milestone in the region's energy evolution.
Woodside and Expro have a long-standing partnership, with Expro supporting well construction activities in Mexico during the exploration phase. This latest collaboration further strengthens their well-established presence in deepwater operations across the country.

Cryptocurrency investors profited handsomely last week as altcoins followed Bitcoin&#8217;s record highs.
What happened: Bitcoin, the world's largest digital asset by capitalization, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/25/07/46385051/bitcoin-zooms-past-121000-to-finish-historic-week-whats-fueling-the-rally">began a gravity-defying bull run</a> that propelled it beyond $122,000.
But while Bitcoin set the tone, its returns were eclipsed by other cryptocurrencies.
Ethereum, the second-largest coin, surged 17% in the last week, regaining $3,000 after a gap of more than five months. Its market dominance increased to 9.6%, while Bitcoin's share remained below 64%.
Interestingly, mid-cap coins like Cardano, Polkadot and Avalanche, once deemed as "Ethereum Killers," outgained Ethereum, surging 29.50%, 21.80% and 20%, respectively.

Fastenal, FB Financial And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Monday

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed a slight decline in the overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Greed&#8221; zone on Friday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Friday, a day after the S&amp;P 500 notched a fresh record high. Wall Street recorded losses last week, with the Dow Jones falling 1% and the S&amp;P down by 0.3%.
President Donald Trump signaled a more aggressive trade stance. Trump last week announced a 35% tariff on Canadian imports starting Aug. 1 and blanket duties of 15% to 20% on most other trading partners.
WD-40 Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WDFC#NASDAQ">WDFC</a>) posted better-than-expected earnings for its third quarter, while sales missed estimates.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with financial, health care and materials stocks recording the biggest losses on Friday. However, energy and consumer discretionary stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.
The Dow Jones closed lower by 279 points to 44,371.51 on Friday. The S&amp;P 500 fell 0.33% to 6,259.75, while the Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.22% to 20,585.53 during Friday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Fastenal Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FAST#NASDAQ">FAST</a>), FB Financial Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FBK#NYSE">FBK</a>) and Simulations Plus Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLP#NASDAQ">SLP</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 75.3, the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Greed&#8221; zone on Friday, versus a prior reading of 75.7.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

S&P 500 Records Weekly Loss Amid Trump Tariff Jitters: Fear & Greed Index Remains In 'Extreme Greed' Zone

JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) is about to kick off the earnings season, as it is one of the first banks to report on July 15. However, its technical chart shows mixed signals as the bank is ready to report its second-quarter earnings.
Check out the current price of <a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/jpm">JPM stock here</a>.
What Happened: JPMorgan&#8217;s CEO, Jamie Dimon, warned that the markets were complacent about tariffs at an event in Dublin with Ireland&#8217;s Deputy Prime Minister, Simon Harris.
This comes after the bank&#8217;s CFO, Jeremy Barnum, mentioned during its first quarter earnings call that tariff policy are shifting corporate clients&#8217; focus &#8220;away from more strategic priorities with obvious implications for the Investment Banking pipeline outlook towards more short-term work, optimizing supply chains and trying to figure out how they&#8217;re going to respond to the current environment.&#8221;
He added that this has resulted in a &#8220;wait-and-see attitude&#8221; among corporate clients, making it &#8220;hard to make long-term decisions right now.&#8221;
As the corporates adjust and markets remain complacent, JPMorgan&#8217;s technical chart, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>, shows that its current share price of $286.86 apiece was higher than its 20, 50, and 200-day simple daily moving averages but lower than its eight-day SMA.
Meanwhile, its relative strength index at 60.13 was in the neutral zone, but its MACD line of 6.06 was slightly below its signal line of 6.80, signalling a bearish momentum amid a bullish trend.
Thus, overall, the technical indicators present a mixed picture for the bank&#8217;s stock, with a bullish trend supported by moving averages, but a recent bearish crossover in MACD suggesting a potential short-term pullback or slowing momentum.

Why It Matters: Talking about the Federal Reserve, Dimon reiterated that tariffs were likely to increase inflation, and he expects the Fed to increase interest rates, rather than reduce them. "If the market is pricing a 20% chance, I'm pricing in a 40% to 50% chance,&#8221; Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-10/dimon-says-an-eu-us-tariff-framework-needs-to-get-done">reported</a>, quoting Dimon.
However, during JPMorgan&#8217;s first quarter earnings call, Dimon had mentioned that economists believe tariffs &#8220;will be inflationary to 0.5% or something like that.&#8221;
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/JPM/analyst-ratings">Benzinga tracks 24 analysts</a> covering JPMorgan with a consensus price target of $256 and a &#8216;hold&#8217; rating. The targets range from $159 to $330, with the three latest ratings implying a 0.23% upside for the stock.

Price Action: JPM was 19.53% higher on a year-to-date basis, whereas it has risen 36.57% over the past year.

JPMorgan Stock Shows Mixed Signals Ahead Of Q2 Results Even As CEO Jamie Dimon Warns Of 'Complacent' Markets Ignoring Impact Of Trump Tariffs On Interest Rates

FBI Director Kash Patel moved to quash rumors that he might quit over Attorney General Pam Bondi's handling of Jeffrey Epstein records, declaring in an X post that "the conspiracy theories just aren't true, never have been" and vowing to stay "as long as" President Donald Trump wants him on the job.
What Happened: Patel's message on Saturday landed hours before Trump published a lengthy Truth Social <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46383724/trump-stands-by-attorney-general-amid-jeffrey-epstein-controversy-let-pam-bondi-do-her-job-shes-great">post defending Bondi</a> and chastising supporters for "going after" her amid calls for fuller disclosure of Epstein files.
The social-media volley marked the administration's latest attempt to calm a week-long uproar touched off when the Justice Department and FBI released a memo on Sunday that said Epstein left no secret "client list," reaffirmed his 2019 jail suicide and concluded further disclosures would "serve no purpose." The document, plus a surveillance video that included a one-minute gap, enraged online activists and sparked talk that Bondi, Patel or Deputy Director Dan Bongino might resign.

Axios reported in its July 12 newsletter that Bongino had threatened to quit after a heated White House meeting, while fringe accounts claimed Patel had already scrubbed his X bio. Patel rejected that narrative, saying he serves at Trump's pleasure and that no bombshell material remains hidden.
Before joining the Trump administration, Patel repeatedly <a href="https://x.com/bennyjohnson/status/1737167456374862197">pressed</a> for the Epstein files' release and, in a December 2023 podcast, accused the Biden administration of withholding them "because of who's on that list."
Why It Matters: The friction is notable because Patel, Bongino and Bondi spent months promising maximum transparency. On a June episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience," <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45829598/fbis-kash-patel-denies-existence-of-epstein-island-videos-were-gonna-give-you-everything-we-can-were-not-gonna-re-victimize-women">Patel told listeners</a> the bureau would release "everything we can" and insisted Epstein's death was suicide, even as he conceded many would "never be convinced."
Bondi has kept silent, and Bongino skipped public events on Friday. Trump, meanwhile, urged the MAGA base to "let Pam Bondi do her job" and focus on other battles. Sunday's memo followed Bondi's February pledge to release more documents — a promise critics say evaporated.
Meanwhile, Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie claims <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46385035/chris-christie-says-trump-not-pam-bondi-pulled-the-plug-on-epstein-memo-when-you-start-the-fire-sometimes-you-cant-put-it-out">the White House stopped</a> the public release of a Justice Department review that debunks conspiracy theories about Jeffrey Epstein's death and alleged "client list."

Kash Patel Says The 'Conspiracy Theories Just Aren't True', Says He'll Serve His Role 'As Long As' Trump Wants Him To Amid Epstein List Controversy

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk has teased an "epic demo" by the end of 2025, sparking buzz around Optimus as well as Cybercab, amid the EV giant's declining sales and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46384692/elon-musk-says-trump-wants-everyone-to-stop-talking-about-epstein-reiterates-demand-that-president-just-release-the-files">ongoing feud with President Donald Trump</a>.
What Happened: The billionaire took to social media platform X on Sunday to share the news. "Just left the Tesla design studio. Most epic demo ever by end of year. Ever."

Why It Matters: Musk's post could point to several things in Tesla's future. The post could be teasing developments in Tesla's Optimus line of robots, which recently underwent a temporary production halt <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46240609/elon-musks-tesla-has-halted-the-production-of-its-humanoid-robot-optmius-amid-redesign-plans-report">amid major redesign plans</a>.

Elon Musk Teases 'Most Epic Demo Ever' By 2025 End As Tesla Struggles Amid Declining Sales, Trump Ending EV Mandate

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.

Why It Matters: The European Commission has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45827116/elon-musks-social-media-platform-x-scrambles-to-highlight-blue-check-disclaimer-amid-eu-fine-threat-report">independently investigating X </a>for nearly two years over a suspected breach of the Digital Services Act. 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.
