  Thursday, the Trump administration finalized
• 5:39
  a financial rescue, with Besant revealing he
• 5:42
  directly purchased Argentine pesos in global

  currency markets. This move aims to relieve pressure
• 5:49
  on President Javier Mele, who has implemented
• 5:52
  drastic economic reforms. Along with this intervention,
• 5:57
  the United States has arranged a currency swap
• 5:59
  of $20 billion with Argentina's central bank.

  defaults. In business news, Elon Musk is quietly

  in the Bay Area tech scene. The property at 499
• 6:34
  Ford's Boulevard had been vacant since 2023,
• 6:38
  after Interven Biosciences pulled out of its

  lease amid an industry downturn. Neuralink has

  Let's talk tech. OpenAI did not expect Sora's
• 8:16
  copyright drama. When it released its new AI
• 8:19
  -generated video app Sora, it included an opt
• 8:22
  -out policy for copyright holders. However, after
• 8:27
  a backlash over content, CEO Sam Altman announced
• 8:31
  a policy reversal to allow rights holders to
• 8:34
  decide how to proceed. Altman acknowledged that
• 8:38
  responses to the app were unexpectedly nuanced,
• 8:41
  with many wanting more control over their likenesses.
• 8:45
  Concerns over misinformation from hyper -realistic
• 8:48
  videos also surfaced, prompting discussions about
• 8:51
  the app's watermark. Despite initial challenges,
• 8:56
  Sora remains a top app on Apple's App Store,
• 8:59
  indicating strong demand. And in entertainment

  Rockwell portrays a disheveled man from the future.
• 9:13
  sent back to save humanity from an impending

  artificial intelligence uprising. Dressed in
• 9:19
  a plastic raincoat and mismatched shoes, he embodies
• 9:23
  the chaotic energy of a Terry Gilliam character.
• 9:27
  His mission? To find unlikely heroes among the
• 9:30
  late -night crowd at a diner in Los Angeles.
• 9:34
  This irreverent film combines elements of time
• 9:36
  loops and video games, with Rockwell's character
• 9:39
  trying to break a cycle over numerous attempts.
• 9:42
  It challenges perceptions of reality while also
• 9:46
  critiquing our screen -obsessed society. Well,
• 9:50
  all righty, folks. It's time for the quote of
• 9:53
  the day. And today, our quote comes from the
• 9:57
  American poet and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson.
• 10:02
  And he said, And that's a wrap for this morning.
