California Governor Gavin Newsom sued Fox News (NASDAQ: FOXA) Friday, alleging the network defamed him by making misleading comments about a phone call with President Donald Trump, seeking damages of at least $787 million -- nearly the same value of what Fox Corp., Fox News and other Fox cable networks paid to settle their defamation lawsuit from Dominion Voting Systems in 2023. The suit claims Fox News distorted their story "on behalf of the President" when the governor and president feuded over the deployment of California National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles in response to protests. "I believe the American people should be able to trust the information they receive from a major news outlet. Until Fox is willing to be truthful, I will keep fighting against their propaganda machine," Newsom said in a statement. In return, Fox News said Newsom's lawsuit is "frivolous and designed to chill free speech critical of him."

Salesforce (NYSE: CRM) is increasing its use of artificial intelligence to accelerate the company's productivity, with CEO Marc Benioff highlighting that the technology currently facilities about 30% to 50% of the CRM software giant's work. "All of us have to get our head around this idea that AI could do things, that before, we were doing, and we can move on to do higher-value work," Benioff told Bloomberg News in an interview. Benioff called generative AI's use in the workforce a "digital labor revolution," estimately that the company's model is about 93% accurate in its outputs, added that other AI vendors are at "much lower" accuracy levels -- often call hallucinations, or when a large language model generates false or misleading information as fact -- because "they don't have as much data and metadata" like Salesforce does. The company previously cut more than 1,000 positions earlier this year to restructure its operations to support the use of AI.

Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) is reportedly closing its automotive architecture business and plans to layoff most of the segment's staff as part of a larger restructuring effort.
