ENDRA Life Sciences Inc is engaged in the development of Thermo Acoustic Enhanced UltraSound (TAEUS) to visualize tissue like MRI at the cost and at the point of patient care. TAEUS is designed to work in concert with around 400,000 cart-based ultrasound systems in use globally today. TAEUS is initially focused on the measurement of fat in the liver as a means to assess and monitor Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), chronic liver conditions that affect over one billion people globally, and for which there are no practical diagnostic tools. Beyond the liver, the firm is exploring several other clinical applications of TAEUS, including visualization of tissue temperature during energy-based surgical procedures.

Trump Media's Latest ETF Filing Made This Crypto Rally 18% — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Left Trailing

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) has slammed U.S. President Donald Trump's pick for the FAA Administrator role, Bryan Bedford, over the 1,500-hour rule. The rule stipulates that all pilots must undergo 1,500 hours of training to qualify for a commercial flight license.
What Happened: The senator took to social media platform X to share his criticism of Bedford's nomination for the role on Tuesday.&nbsp;
"For years, I have worked with the families of Flight 3407 years to establish and protect the 1,500-hour rule after they all lost loved ones in the tragic plane crash that occurred on a winter&#8217;s night in Western New York," Schumer said.
Schumer added that the 1,500-hour training was required to prevent another crash and that it's "the gold standard" of aircraft pilot training. "With everything that's happened this year, Americans don't want pilots with less training," Schumer said.
He slammed the Republicans for advancing Bedford's nomination. "He will weaken safety standards and prioritize profits over passenger safety," Schumer said.

Chuck Schumer Slams Trump's FAA Chief Pick Bryan Bedford Over 1,500-Hour Rule: 'He Will Weaken Safety Standards'

President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday on Truth Social that the U.S. will release trade agreements with &#8220;a minimum of 7 Countries&#8221; Wednesday morning, with additional countries following in the afternoon.
What Happened: &#8220;We will be releasing a minimum of 7 Countries having to do with trade, tomorrow morning, with an additional number of Countries being released in the afternoon,&#8221; Trump wrote on his platform. &#8220;Thank you for your attention to this matter!&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="321" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/08233652/image-87-1024x321.png" alt="" class="wp-image-977494" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/08233652/image-87-1024x321.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/08233652/image-87-300x94.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/08233652/image-87-768x241.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/08233652/image-87.png 1180w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
The announcement comes as Trump intensifies bilateral trade pressure through comprehensive tariff restructuring. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46267477/trump-threatens-10-additional-tariff-on-all-brics-aligned-nations-says-tariff-letters-drop-at-noon-monday">confirmed plans to finalize deals with ten major trading partners</a> by July 9, as previously reported.

Why It Matters: The shift in strategy from multilateral negotiations to bilateral letters reflects Trump&#8217;s preference for direct, country-to-country deals. On Sunday, Trump threatened an additional 10% tariff on any country aligning with BRICS anti-American policies, targeting the ten-nation alliance, including China, Russia, India, and Brazil.
Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced plans to meet with his Chinese counterpart &#8220;sometime in the next couple of weeks&#8221; to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46288813/treasury-secretary-scott-bessent-plans-china-talks-amid-trumps-escalating-tariff-push">advance trade discussions between the world&#8217;s two largest economies</a>, according to a CNBC interview Monday.
Japan faces 25% tariff rates with negotiations extended until August 1 due to domestic political constraints from the country&#8217;s July 20 upper house election. Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba told NHK Japan won&#8217;t &#8220;make easy compromises&#8221; on automobile tariffs.
Economists have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/07/46288703/trumps-letters-to-japan-and-korea-attract-criticism-from-economists-move-demonstrates-complete-lack-of-understanding-of-trade">criticized Trump&#8217;s approach</a>, with Peter Schiff calling the tariff strategy &#8220;a complete lack of understanding of trade,&#8221; noting Japan&#8217;s average tariffs on U.S. goods are under 2% and South Korea&#8217;s under 1%.

Trump's Trade Storm Is Coming: Morning Drop Hits 7 Nations, More To Follow

An AI-powered impersonation of Secretary of State Marco Rubio has raised alarm at the U.S. State Department after attempts were made to deceive several high-ranking officials.
What Happened: An unknown actor used artificial intelligence to impersonate Rubio, creating a Signal account under the name "marco.rubio@state.gov," <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/07/08/politics/marco-rubio-artificial-intelligence-impersonation">reported</a> CNN, citing a cable.&nbsp;
The impersonator contacted at least five individuals, including three foreign ministers, a U.S. governor and a member of Congress, aiming to gain "access to information or accounts."
The cable warned U.S. diplomats globally of "two distinct campaigns" in which cyber actors were posing as State Department officials using email and messaging apps.
See Also:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46301582/metas-ai-empire-grows-fueled-by-openai-deepmind-apple-defectors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meta's AI Empire Grows — Fueled By OpenAI, DeepMind, Apple Defectors</a>
"The actor likely aimed to manipulate targeted individuals using AI-generated text and voice messages," the cable noted.
The State Department confirmed awareness of the incident and said it is investigating.
"The department takes seriously its responsibility to safeguard its information and continuously takes steps to improve the department's cybersecurity posture to prevent future incidents," a spokesperson said Tuesday.
Why It's Important: This AI-driven impersonation comes amid rising cyber threats linked to foreign adversaries. The cable also detailed a second Russia-linked campaign that involved phishing attempts targeting Gmail accounts of scholars, activists and journalists.
Cybersecurity researchers, including Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google's Threat Intelligence Group and the University of Toronto's Citizen Lab, say these targeted operations reflect <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/09/28983422/googles-study-claims-russia-resorting-to-cyberattacks-against-ukraine">growing sophistication</a> by state-linked hackers like Russia's APT29.
The FBI is investigating related incidents, including past impersonations of other senior U.S. officials. The State Department advised external partners to report any impersonation attempts to the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center, the report said.
Last year, an AI-generated voice <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36731683/ai-biden-impersonation-shakes-up-new-hampshire-primary-sparks-vote-skipping-scandal">impersonating former President</a> Joe Biden was used in a robocall that told New Hampshire voters not to cast their ballots in the state's primary election.

Marco Rubio Impersonator Used AI To Contact 3 Foreign Ministers With The Intent To Gain 'Access To Information' — State Department Reacts

Sen.&nbsp;Elizabeth Warren&nbsp;(D-Mass.) and former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers are voicing their concerns on the provisions of the recently passed &#8220;One Big, Beautiful Bill,&#8221; warning of significant consequences for working American families. 
What Happened: On Tuesday, in a post on X, Warren criticized Republicans for backing the bill, saying they now &#8220;own the fact&#8221; that 17 million people are projected to lose health care coverage.
She added that the cuts will lead to higher grocery prices, rising student loan payments, and increased utility bills. &#8220;We will never let Republicans forget they chose Trump over the American people,&#8221; Warren said.

The bill that passed with Vice President JD Vance&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46211326/one-big-beautiful-bill-passes-senate-with-jd-vances-tie-breaking-vote-trump-says-its-going-to-go-very-nicely-in-the-house">tie-breaking vote</a> in the Senate last week proposes cuts worth $930 billion on the Medicaid health&nbsp;program and food aid for&nbsp;low-income Americans, alongside the green energy incentives instituted by former President Joe Biden. It is also set to increase the Federal Government&#8217;s debt ceiling by $5 trillion.

Summers, a Democrat who served under Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, echoed Warren's criticism. &#8220;The cruelty of the cuts in OBBB [One Big, Beautiful Bill] is matched only by their stupidity,&#8221; he says, warning that reductions in Medicaid would shift unreimbursed care costs to hospitals, which would then get passed on to patients.
He says that this would lead to delayed treatments, which would then be more expensive, emphasizing the broader inflationary consequences of the policy, while sharing a link to his New York Times column on the same.
In a New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/08/opinion/trump-bill-medicaid-cuts.html">column</a> titled &#8220;This law made me ashamed of my country,&#8221; Summers paints a grimmer picture on the bill, calling it &#8220;the most brutal rollback of the American social safety net in modern history.&#8221;
He warned that the $1 trillion Medicaid cut could lead to more than 100,000 avoidable deaths over a decade, citing peer-reviewed studies and comparisons to Reagan-era welfare reductions. &#8220;I don't remember any past Fourth of July when I've felt more ashamed of my country,&#8221; he says.

The bill has come under criticism from several Republican leaders as well, with Rep.&nbsp;Thomas Massie&nbsp;(R-Ky.) warning that its passage could lead to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46165307/us-credit-rating-would-fall-if-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-is-approved-says-thomas-massie-heres-what-it-means-for-americans">downgrading of U.S. debt</a> to BBB status, signaling financial distress.
GOP senators,&nbsp;Ron Johnson&nbsp;(R-Wis.) and&nbsp;Rand Paul&nbsp;(R-Ky.) have similarly warned&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45604917/gop-senators-threaten-to-block-trumps-tax-and-spending-bill-over-deficit-medicaid-cuts-and-debt-ceiling-hike" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">against the bill</a>, saying that it could fuel deficits and inflation.
Even President Donald Trump&#8217;s former ally, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO, Elon Musk, described the bill as a &#8220;massive, outrageous, pork-filled&#8221; spending package, referring to it as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45757029/elon-musk-slams-congressional-spending-bill-as-a-disgusting-abomination">&#8220;disgusting abomination</a>&#8221; a month ago.

Elizabeth Warren Says GOP Chose Trump Over American People, Slams 'Big Beautiful Bill' For Potentially Ushering Health Care Cuts, Price Hikes

Personal finance broadcaster Dave Ramsey says marital honesty beats any bank balance, scolding a caller who admitted hiding "millions of dollars" from his wife because she "spends too much."
What Happened: "You've been married to her five years … She didn't know you've got any money. That's deception," Ramsey <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUJz4SaC1zo">told</a> the man on The Ramsey Show.
The caller, raised in California after being born in South Korea, said, "I'm the saver and she's the spender," and feared revealing their net worth would "scare" her. Ramsey asked bluntly, "Are you from another culture?&#8221; explaining, &#8220;Because in Anglo-America, what you just described is pretty whacked."

When the man insisted different money personalities justified secrecy, Ramsey cut him off: "Honey, you're not listening … You have actively deceived your wife." He added that the husband's real motive was fear.

Ramsey, married 43 years, said relational wealth outweighs financial riches. "I value a quality marriage and relationship going into my old age … I value that more than money. You don't, so I'm having trouble connecting with you." 
He warned delay will only deepen the breach: "The longer you put this off, the worse this is going to get. This is a weird thing you've done and you need to own that."
Why It Matters: Ramsey's firm stance mirrors advice he's given other callers who tried to hide windfalls or inheritances. Deception is not healthy, he told a woman <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43901721/if-you-do-what-im-talking-about-dave-ramsey-reacts-to-a-caller-who-wants-to-hide-inheritance-from-her-husband-of-50-years">shielding cash from her husband</a>.
The finance guru <a href="https://www.facebook.com/daveramsey/posts/if-youre-married-my-money-and-your-money-doesnt-exist-its-our-money-and-thats-th/1268763677946577/">urges</a> married couples to ditch the "my money" versus "your money" mindset and pool their income in a single account so they operate as one financial team. He says couples who budget together, assign every dollar a purpose and set shared goals, replace mistrust and hidden spending with unity and purpose.
Ramsey also recommends scheduling weekly money check-ins, arguing that regular communication removes financial surprises and defuses conflict before it starts. When spouses combine accounts, talk openly, and chase mutual dreams, he insists they not only win with money but also strengthen their marriage.

Jeff Williams, Once Tipped As Tim Cook's Successor, To Retire From Apple

Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder and executive chairman, Jeff Bezos, has continued his selling spree in the company, offloading a fresh tranche of $666 million this week.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMZN" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AMZN stock here.</a>
What Happened: According to a Form 4 filing submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, Bezos disposed of roughly 2.97 million shares in the e-commerce giant, across two transactions dated July 3 and July 7, at average prices of $223.73 and $223.92 per share, respectively.
The transactions were executed under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted in March 2025, which is essentially designed to allow corporate insiders to sell shares at predetermined times and volumes, without raising concerns of insider trading.

Following the transaction, Bezos still holds over 902 million shares in Amazon, or just under 10% of its total outstanding shares, worth $197 billion at current market prices.
This comes just weeks after Bezos tied the knot with long-time partner, Lauren Sánchez, in a star-studded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/25/06/46136092/jeff-bezos-lauren-sanchez-wedding-draws-star-studded-guest-list-to-venice-here-are-the-celebs-who-showed-up-so-far">$50 million wedding</a> in Venice two weeks ago. 
Why It Matters: Over a week ago, Bezos <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/07/46212089/jeff-bezos-sells-737-million-worth-of-amazon-stock-just-days-after-lavish-venetian-wedding">sold another tranche</a> of the company&#8217;s shares, worth $737 million, as part of the same pre-arranged trading plan.
According to a 10-Q filing made in May, Bezos <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/insider-trades/25/05/45175915/jeff-bezos-to-unload-almost-5-billion-in-amazon-stock-filing">plans to sell shares</a> worth $5 billion in the company, through May of 2026, aimed at funding his space exploration company, Blue Origin, alongside other ventures and charitable organizations. 
Bezos&#8217; net worth currently stands at $240 billion, according <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/profiles/jeffrey-p-bezos/">to</a> the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with his holdings in Amazon making up a significant chunk of it. The rest comes from his ownership of Blue Origin, which has been marked on a cost-of-investment basis.

Jeff Bezos Offloads Nearly $666 Million In Amazon Stock — Adds To Post-Wedding Sell-Off Streak

El Salvador President Nayib Bukele called Democrats &#8220;salty&#8221; on Tuesday, reacting to a proposed bill by party senators that calls for sanctions on the Central American nation.
What Happened: The&nbsp;El Salvador Accountability Act of 2025 was introduced last month by Senators&nbsp;Chris Van Hollen&nbsp;(D-Md.), Sen.&nbsp;Tim Kaine&nbsp;(D-Va.) and Alex Padilla&nbsp;(D-Calif.). 
The legislation&nbsp;seeks to impose property-blocking and visa sanctions on Bukele and other Salvadoran officials &#8220;who have engaged in international human rights violations or worked to deprive individuals residing in the U.S. of their rights under the U.S. Constitution. It also calls for opposing any financial assistance or loans to the El Salvador government.
The bill also sought to probe El Salvador&#8217;s Bitcoin policy, described as a &#8220;mechanism for gross corruption, graft, and sanctions evasion.&#8221;
Bukele laughed at the allegations, stating that Democrats &#8220;are just salty.&#8221;

Why It Matters: El Salvador&#8217;s commitment to Bitcoin has been steadfast, with the country deeming it an &#8220;important project&#8221; initiated by Bukele. 
El Salvador has doubled down on Bitcoin ever since adopting it as a legal tender in 2021. The country introduced a plan&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/03/37763988/pro-bitcoin-president-nayib-bukele-says-el-salvador-will-purchase-btc-daily-until-king-cry" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">to buy one Bitcoin every day</a>, until it becomes unaffordable with fiat currencies. Its&nbsp;<a href="https://bitcoin.gob.sv/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">stockpile</a>&nbsp;has risen to 6,232.18 BTC as of this writing, worth over $678 million at prevailing prices.
However, Bukele admitted last year that Bitcoin uptake in the country <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40644084/el-salvador-president-nayib-bukele-says-bitcoin-uptake-hasnt-been-a-resounding-success-we-">had not been as successful</a> as anticipated.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $108,803.25, up 0.55% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;

Democrats Are 'Just Salty,' Says Nayib Bukele: El Salvador's President Laughs At Senate Bill Calling For Sanctions On His Bitcoin-Friendly Nation

Mark Zuckerberg-led Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) has reportedly acquired a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/07/39867045/metas-34-year-to-date-surge-and-a-5-stake-in-essilorluxottica-transform-ray-ban-smart-glasses-and-re">minority stake</a> in EssilorLuxottica (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESLOF#OTC">ESLOF</a>).
What Happened: Meta has acquired nearly 3% of EssilorLuxottica, the French-Italian eyewear giant behind brands such as Ray-Ban and Oakley, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-08/meta-invests-3-5-billion-in-essilorluxottica-in-ai-glasses-push">reported</a> Bloomberg on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The stake is worth approximately €3 billion ($3.52 billion) at current market prices and comes amid Meta's growing ambitions in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43114842/meta-expands-ai-wearables-with-oakley-smart-glasses-camera-equipped-earbuds-in-development">wearable tech space</a>.

As per the report, Meta could increase its stake to as much as 5% over time.
Meta did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.
Why It's Important: Last month, it was reported that Meta and EssilorLuxottica plan to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/06/45987099/meta-teams-up-with-oakley-prada-for-next-gen-ai-smart-glasses">release new AI smart glasses</a> under the Oakley and Prada brands.
This comes after the popularity of the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, which launched in 2023 and have reportedly sold millions of units. In October 2024, it was reported that Ray-Ban and Meta's smart glasses have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41458752/metas-smart-glasses-dominate-ray-ban-stores-ai-features-still-missing">become the best-selling product</a> in 60% of Ray-Ban stores across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Meanwhile, Meta rival Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) reportedly has at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46161059/apple-has-the-potential-to-crush-metas-ray-ban-smart-glasses-says-ming-chi-kuo-but-the-tech-giant-has-been-surprisingly-slow">least seven headsets and smart glasses</a> in development. This includes Vision Pro M5 models, Vision Air, XR glasses and a display accessory, with some expected to launch starting in 2027.
Price Action: Meta shares rose 0.044% in after-hours trading, following a 0.32% gain during regular market hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings indicate that META shows a strong upward trend in the short, medium and long term. While its growth score remains high, its value rating is relatively lower. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-4/#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">More detailed performance data is available here</a>.

Prokidney, Soundhound AI, Quantumscape, Intel, And Nvidia: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

"Wishing for the 1950s past is a bad mistake," warned LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman in a May 14 <a href="https://www.possible.fm/podcast/">&nbsp;"Possible" podcast</a>, where he and co-host Aria Finger argued that artificial intelligence examiners will overhaul higher-education assessments.&nbsp;
The veteran investor said professors clinging to decades-old curricula risk irrelevance as AI tools powered by dynamic questioning enter lecture halls, pushing universities toward tougher, real-time oral exams.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI Forces A Faster Study Sprint</h2>
Generative AI has already vaulted into student toolkits. A <a href="https://www.hepi.ac.uk/2025/02/26/student-generative-ai-survey-2025/">survey</a> published in February by the<a href="https://www.hepi.ac.uk/2025/02/26/student-generative-ai-survey-2025/"> Higher Education Policy Institute</a> and digital publisher Kortext found 92% of U.K. undergraduates use such tools—up from 66% a year earlier—while 88% have inserted AI-generated text directly into assignments.

</ul>
"I could spend 30 hours writing an essay, or I could spend 90 minutes with my ChatGPT, Claude, Pi—whatever—prompting and generating something for that," Hoffman said, arguing that such shortcuts undermine the "whole point" of college: learning. He predicted AI-enabled tools will continue to spread until professors embed the technology into assessments rather than try to ban it.
Colleges are already adjusting. Academic integrity firm<a href="https://guides.turnitin.com/hc/en-us/articles/28294949544717-AI-writing-detection-model"> Turnitin</a> revised its AI-writing detector to hide scores below 20% to curb false positives and focus faculty on serious violations.
A March <a href="https://cssl.osu.edu/documents/2025-student-life-survey-generative-ai-tagged.pdf">survey</a> at Ohio State University that explored how students use generative AI found that 73% of undergraduates use generative AI into weekly study routines. "You can't ignore the new tool," Hoffman said, adding that an AI examiner able to ask follow-up questions "will be harder to fake than the pre-AI times."
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Hoffman Backs AI-Oral Exams</h2>
Enforcement still lags. In early April, the <a href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/ai-cheats-slip-under-radar-as-few-university-students-penalised-56kpcv6pp">Times of London</a> reported that fewer than 1 in 400 Russell Group students faced discipline for AI cheating last year despite 90% admitting tool usage, underscoring the gap Hoffman expects AI-proctored orals to close.
Because oral questioning demands mastery across "the whole zoom" of a course, Hoffman urged departments to convert some multiple-choice finals into viva-voce sessions overseen by large-language models.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pilot Programs Show What's Coming Next</h2>
Pilots are underway. In January, <a href="https://ai.asu.edu/openAI">Arizona State University and OpenAI</a> launched a campus-wide challenge inviting faculty to embed ChatGPT Enterprise into lessons. Meanwhile, Georgia Tech's <a href="https://iac.gatech.edu/news/item/676992/school-modern-languages-pilots-assistant-language-instruction-created-alum">language-instruction pilot </a>using the Spirant Assistant has been discontinued. According to Britta Kallin, associate professor and German program director at Georgia Tech, the program was halted because the computer scientist overseeing Spirant AI determined it was too costly to maintain and develop.
Hoffman closed the episode by reminding educators their mission remains to prepare graduates to thrive alongside intelligent agents. "The most central thing is preparing students to be capable, healthy, happy participants in the new world," he said.&nbsp;

'Wishing For The 1950s Past Is A Bad Mistake' — LinkedIn Co-Founder Reid Hoffman Says AI Will Disrupt Professors Who Refuse To Evolve

The much-awaited preliminary report on the devastating Air India crash, involving a Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) airplane, in June, which claimed 260 lives, is expected to be released by the end of this week.
What Happened: The report, potentially illuminating the circumstances surrounding the most deadly aviation disaster of the past ten years, is being compiled by Indian investigators. However, the exact release date and the extent of information it will contain are yet to be confirmed, Reuters reported on Tuesday.
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner, bound for London, crashed shortly after departing from Ahmedabad, resulting in the death of all but one of the 242 passengers and 19 individuals on the ground.
The investigation into the crash of Air India flight 171 is primarily centered around&nbsp;the engine fuel control switches,&nbsp;following an examination of the Boeing 787&#8217;s flight and voice data recorders. Anonymous sources have stated that the black box data does not definitively determine whether the crash was caused by incorrect, accidental, or deliberate actions.
The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau of India, which is leading the investigation in accordance with international rules, has not yet responded to requests for comment. The investigation has been characterized by a scarcity of information, with only one press conference held by the Indian government, where no questions were allowed.
The crash has significantly impacted the Tata Group&#8217;s attempts to rehabilitate Air India&#8217;s image and overhaul its fleet after purchasing the airline&nbsp;from the government in 2022.&nbsp;The incident has also heightened safety concerns within India&#8217;s civil aviation sector, which is relying on a surge in aviation to support broader development objectives.

Why It Matters: The crash of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner in June was a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45899174/boeing-dreamliner-carrying-over-200-passengers-crashes-shortly-after-takeoff-near-indias-ahmedabad-ba-stock-falls-over-5-in-thursday-pre-market">significant blow</a> to India&#8217;s aviation industry. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/25/06/46131852/boeing-787-dreamliner-black-box-recovered-data-under-scrutiny-to-provide-insights-into-fatal-air-india-crash">recovery of the black box data</a> was a crucial step in the investigation, providing potential insights into the cause of the disaster. 
However, the investigation faced controversy when <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46133937/boeing-787-dreamliner-crash-india-shuts-door-on-un-aviation-expert-probing-plane-accident">India denied a UN Aviation investigator</a> the opportunity to join the probe.

Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner Crash Report Expected On Friday As Investigation Centers On Engine Fuel Control Switches: Report

Nike (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) predicted Air Jordan would make only $3 million in sales over its first three to four years. Instead, the line <a href="https://www.inc.com/jeff-haden/how-much-has-michael-jordan-been-paid-for-his-nike-jordan-brand-partnership-not-nearly-enough.html">brought in about $126 million</a> in its first year. That breakout success vaulted NBA great Michael Jordan into retail legend and reshaped Nike's future.
Jordan Brand now earns billions yearly, keeping the Jumpman logo central to modern sneaker culture. That journey started with one risky contract and a shoe the NBA tried to ban.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rookie Deal Reshapes Sneakers</h2>
In October 1984, after meeting at Nike's headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon, <a href="https://www.espn.com/blog/playbook/dollars/post/_/id/2918/how-nike-landed-michael-jordan?">Nike signed</a> Jordan to a five-year endorsement deal worth $500,000 annually.

</ul>
"Nike&#8217;s expectation was at the end of year four they hoped to sell $3 million of Air Jordans," agent David Falk said in <a href="https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/the-last-dance-story-behind-michael-jordan-nearly-choosing-adidas-over-nike-explained-in-doc/">ESPN's documentary</a>, "The Last Dance." Jordan had favored Adidas, yet his mother, Deloris, persuaded him to hear Nike's pitch.
The contract included a signature shoe, unheard of for a rookie, plus stock options and royalties on every pair sold. Nike backed the launch with posters, television spots, and campus tours that cast the 21-year-old guard as both hero and rebel. By season's end, Air Jordan revenue hit $126 million, smashing every forecast and proving a player could anchor an entire product family.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Banned Shoe Fuels Buzz</h2>
"The NBA threw them out of the game. Fortunately, the NBA can't keep you from wearing them," teased a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5QbV-wnhtY">Nike ad</a> after the league cited uniform rules and fined Jordan $5,000 each game for wearing the red-and-black Air Jordan 1, which debuted on April 1, 1985.

The controversy sparked demand. <a href="https://www.espn.com/espn/sportsbusiness/news/story?id=1920101">Retailers moved</a> 450,000 pairs within a month at $65 each, ESPN added. Rappers, playground players, and director Spike Lee amplified the buzz, making the sneakers status symbols beyond sport.&nbsp;
Analysts later called the launch the first modern "drop," where scarcity and story fuel instant sell-outs. That momentum helped Nike secure future athlete lines, from Charles Barkley in 1992 to LeBron James in 2003, each modeled on Jordan's template.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Jumpman Revenue Soars</h2>
Jordan Brand became a standalone Nike division in 1997 and still powers earnings today. For the quarter that ended May. 31, Nike <a href="https://investors.nike.com/investors/news-events-and-reports/investor-news/investor-news-details/2025/NIKE-Inc--Reports-Fiscal-2025-Fourth-Quarter-and-Full-Year-Results/default.aspx">posted </a>$11.1 billion in revenue. Jordan Brand recorded $7.27 for the full fiscal year, following a 16% year-over-year decline.&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/justinbirnbaum/2023/10/02/michael-jordan-joins-forbes-400-worth-3-billion/">Forbes</a> reported Jordan's net worth at about $3 billion, driven by royalties exceeding $150 million a year. Hype stays sharp.<a href="https://sneakernews.com/2025/04/23/travis-scott-jordan-jumpman-jack-bright-cactus-fz8117-102-release-date/"> Sneaker News</a> reported the Travis Scott x Jordan Jumpman Jack "Bright Cactus" sold out on April 30 at $200.<a href="https://www.gq.com/story/air-jordan-1-low-chicago-2025-release"> GQ</a> wrote that the Air Jordan 1 Low "Chicago" returns this holiday season for $140.&nbsp;
