[ad_1] CNN — Behind the monumental court ruling that blocked most of US President Donald Trump’s tariffs is a small wine company run by a father-and-daughter duo. VOS Selections – a small, New York-based wine company – was the lead plaintiff in the lawsuit which prompted a three-judge panel at the US Court of International Trade to strike down Trump’s sweeping global tariffs on Wednesday. The decision found Trump overstepped his authority by invoking emergency economic powers to impose sweeping tariffs on China, Canada, Mexico and other US trading partners. VOS founder Victor Schwartz never intended to be at the…
[ad_1] Shanghai Reuters — Chinese artificial intelligence startup DeepSeek released an update to its R1 reasoning model in the early hours of Thursday, stepping up competition with US rivals such as OpenAI. DeepSeek launched R1-0528 on developer platform Hugging Face, but has yet to make an official public announcement. It did not publish a description of the model or comparisons. But the LiveCodeBench leaderboard, a benchmark developed by researchers from UC Berkeley, MIT, and Cornell, ranked DeepSeek’s updated R1 reasoning model just slightly behind OpenAI’s o4 mini and o3 reasoning models on code generation and ahead of xAI’s Grok 3…

[ad_1] CNN — A US federal court’s ruling Wednesday against President Donald Trump’s authority to levy some of his most sweeping tariffs may have also dealt a serious blow to the president’s entire economic agenda. Trump’s core economic policy has been his historic tariffs, but the administration has described its aggressive trade actions as just one leg of a three-legged stool. Built on tariffs, spending cuts and tax cuts, Trump’s economic agenda relies on all three components to stand strong. But a three-judge panel at the US Court of International Trade blocked Trump’s global tariffs, which he imposed citing emergency…
[ad_1] CNN — Hollywood studios and streamers aren’t exactly craving politically provocative shows and movies right now. Producers are thinking twice about liberal-sounding storylines. Media companies are downplaying diversity initiatives. And “The Apprentice,” a biopic about President Trump that contained some critical scenes, struggled to gain US distribution last year. That’s what makes the timing of “The Handmaid’s Tale” finale all the more remarkable. The acclaimed Hulu drama, which streamed its final episode earlier this week, was unavoidably and unapologetically political. In the series, based on the 1985 novel by Margaret Atwood, America has been transformed into Gilead, a totalitarian…

Palantir Palantir , which has outperformed its peers after surging 64% in 2025, is still a buying opportunity for investors looking to tap into government demand for the company’s AI-enabled tools. “We still think Palantir is a buy.

[ad_1] New York CNN — Nvidia missed out on $2.5 billion in additional revenue during the first quarter of this year because it had to stop shipping its H20 artificial intelligence chips to China after the Trump administration instituted fresh export restrictions last month. Despite those unearned sales — revealed in the company’s earnings report Wednesday — Nvidia took a smaller blow from the new H20 restrictions during the quarter than expected. It took a $4.5 billion charge in the quarter associated with excess H20 inventory and purchase obligations it couldn’t fill because of the export controls, although it had…
