3. U.S. Senators Put OpenAI on Blast Over AI Safety Concerns 🤔

Five prominent U.S. Senators just dropped a letter to OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, grilling him on the company's commitment to AI safety amid rising concerns about cybersecurity and transparency.

4. FTC Cracks Down on AI-Powered Price Hikes ❌

The investigation could reveal how these companies are manipulating prices to squeeze more cash from unsuspecting customers.
