Amazon.com Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) self-driving subsidiary Zoox is scaling up its presence in California as the autonomous vehicle race accelerates, potentially strengthening its position against domestic and international competitors.
What Happened: Zoox will open a new production facility in California&#8217;s Bay Area to significantly expand its robotaxi fleet beyond its current small Fremont operation, co-founder Jesse Levinson <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/a49cefe6-a9ec-4f3b-9b02-2b95fb3a27bf">told</a> the Financial Times. 
The company plans to begin public rides in Las Vegas this year followed by San Francisco, with production ramping up substantially in 2026.
&#8220;We&#8217;ll have a lot more [vehicles] by the end of the year. And then next year is when we really start what we call serial production,&#8221; Levinson said, adding the new site will prepare Zoox to produce &#8220;hundreds and then thousands&#8221; of its custom-built robotaxis. 
The company highlighted its California manufacturing as a strategic advantage, with Levinson stating: &#8220;We&#8217;re happy to be a California company actually manufacturing vehicles in California. There isn&#8217;t a lot of that right now.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The expansion comes as Zoox positions itself as one of the few alternatives to Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Waymo, which has already completed over<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44349240/googles-waymo-leads-robotaxi-race-with-2-millon-paid-rides-zoox-challenges-tesla-for-second-spot-as-unsupervised-autonomy-becomes-table-stakes-says-gary-black"> 2 million paid robotaxi </a>rides across multiple U.S. cities. 
Since Amazon acquired <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/01/43076598/amazons-zoox-plans-to-launch-robotaxi-service-this-year">Zoox for $1.2-1.3 billion in 2020</a>, the venture has grown from 100 employees to approximately 2,500. Zoox&#8217;s unique approach features purpose-built vehicles with no steering wheel, pedals or driver&#8217;s seat, designed as driver-less from inception.
The production expansion follows President Donald Trump&#8216;s administration&#8217;s recent announcement to loosen regulations for self-driving car deployment amid growing competition from China&#8217;s BYD and other autonomous vehicle developers. 
Zoox will compete not only with Waymo but also with Tesla Inc.

Bill Gates, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) co-founder and one of the most vocal advocates for large-scale climate solutions, is urging wealthy nations to lead the charge in achieving net-zero emissions, highlighting they have a global responsibility.
Speaking in Singapore at Temasek's flagship sustainability event, Ecosperity, Gates called for impactful investments in innovation to address the climate crisis head-on.
What Happened: During a fireside chat with Singapore's Ambassador for Climate Action, Ravi Menon, Gates stressed that while it may not be essential for every nation in the world to reach "absolute zero" emissions, rich countries that have access to the resources must do so.
"There are levels of emissions that are small enough that the temperature worsening actually is not a problem," he said. He also admitted that expecting the whole world to achieve net zero by 2050 is "not realistic" at this point, according <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/05/bill-gates-rich-countries-owe-it-to-the-world-to-achieve-net-zero.html">to</a> NBC.

Why It Matters: According <a href="https://www.un.org/en/climatechange/net-zero-coalition">to</a> the United Nations, Net zero means "cutting carbon emissions to a small amount of residual emissions that can be absorbed and durably stored by nature and other carbon dioxide removal measures, leaving zero in the atmosphere."
Gates emphasized that rich nations should set examples by reaching net zero, aiding the world stay on track with the Paris Agreement's target of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. He mentioned that innovation is crucial to achieving these goals, but cited challenges like securing risk capital.
At the same conference, where he was present as the founder of founder of&nbsp;Breakthrough Energy, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45216185/bill-gates-says-trumps-climate-rollbacks-may-have-slowed-progress-but-microsoft-co-founder-doesnt-think-thats-a-permanent-thing-as-americas-commitment-to-clean-energy">Gates also shared his belief</a> that even though there is a "little less cooperation going on", referring to President Donald Trump's climate rollbacks, he does not "think that&#8217;s a permanent thing."

Bill Gates Says Rich Countries 'Owe It To The World' To Get Themselves Down To Net Zero Emissions

Perplexity AI is outshining established competitors in the voice assistant market, according to the company&#8217;s CEO, as the battle for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40089426/mark-zuckerberg-aims-for-ai-assistant-dominance-over-siri-alexa-and-chatgpt-seeks-market-leaders">artificial intelligence assistant dominance intensifies</a>.
What Happened: Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas highlighted findings from a 9to5Mac comparison showing his company&#8217;s offering &#8220;clearly outperformed or is at parity&#8221; with Apple Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Siri and OpenAI&#8216;s ChatGPT across most categories. 
The evaluation tested factual queries, summarization, web search, navigation, reasoning abilities and daily help functions.
The assessment found ChatGPT excelled in reasoning and contextual understanding, while Siri performed best only in system-level iOS integrations. Perplexity emerged as the most versatile option, combining web-based intelligence with limited Apple app integration.

Jeff Bezos-Backed Perplexity AI Outperforms Apple's Siri And ChatGPT In iOS Voice Assistant Comparison, CEO Aravind Srinivas Says

Tempus AI Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEM#NASDAQ">TEM</a>), a key holding in Cathie Wood's Ark Invest portfolio, reassured investors Tuesday that its major pharmaceutical contracts remain strong despite challenges in biotech funding and global tariff concerns.
What Happened: During the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45238450/tempus-ai-q1-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-raised-fy-guidance-shares-surge">first-quarter earnings</a> call, Tempus AI's CFO Jim Rogers addressed concerns about potential risks to the company's total contract value (TCV) due to a tougher macroeconomic environment, including biotech funding slowdowns and tariff uncertainties.
He explained that Tempus works with two main groups: 19 of the top 20 large pharmaceutical companies and a few hundred smaller biotechs.
The CFO acknowledged that the biotech sector has felt the impact of weaker funding over the past two years but stressed that it makes up only a small portion of Tempus's overall business.

"The majority of the TCV and the revenue come from the large pharma companies that have larger R&amp;D budgets," Rogers said. "The relationships with big pharma tend to be multi-year subscriptions that are committed. And so we're delivering the data that they have agreed to license over these terms. We haven't seen a significant impact on the large pharma side."
Interestingly, Rogers added that tighter pharma budgets can benefit Tempus's data business: "When budgets tend to be flat or cut, we actually see a little bit of a benefit… because leveraging the types of data that we license folks allows them to more effectively design their trials or identify targets in a more effective way."
Why It's Important: Tempus AI posted first-quarter revenue of $255.74 million, surpassing expectations of $248.13 million.
The company, which specializes in AI-driven precision medicine and patient care, reported an adjusted loss of 24 cents per share for the quarter, smaller than the anticipated 27-cent loss, as per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Wood's Ark Investment Management holds over 5.5 million shares of Tempus AI, as of Dec. 31, 2024.
Price Action: Tempus AI shares slipped $0.096 in pre-market trading on Wednesday, following a 3.48% decline during Tuesday's regular session.

The President Donald Trump administration has shuttered a key federal advisory committee responsible for infection control standards in U.S. healthcare facilities, with the termination already in effect for over a month before members were notified, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention documents.
What Happened: The Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee, which established national guidelines for hand-washing, mask-wearing and patient isolation protocols followed by most American hospitals, was terminated March 31, according to a CDC letter <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/trump-administration-shut-cdcs-infection-control-committee-rcna205209?ref=biztoc.com">reviewed</a> by NBC News. Members said they were only informed of the decision during a virtual meeting on Friday.
The committee&#8217;s termination aligns with Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43871609/trumps-federal-workforce-downsizing-plan-gets-green-light-from-judge-appeal-by-unions-dismissed">executive order calling for federal workforce reductions</a>. The CDC and Department of Health and Human Services have not responded to requests for comment.
Four professional societies had previously urged Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to preserve the committee amid widespread cuts to federal health agencies, according to a March 26 letter, the NBC News report noted.
Dr. Anurag Malani, an Infectious Diseases Society of America fellow who joined HICPAC in January, noted the committee was close to finalizing updated airborne pathogen guidelines—the first revision since 2007—which incorporated pandemic lessons.

Why It Matters: The committee&#8217;s dissolution comes amid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/02/43598644/deadly-bird-flu-strain-detected-in-nevada-man-4-stocks-to-watch">concerning public health developments</a>, including the CDC&#8217;s report of the highest tuberculosis caseload in a decade and a record 216 pediatric flu deaths this season—the most since the 2009-2010 H1N1 pandemic.
According to the CDC&#8217;s termination letter, HICPAC made 540 recommendations during its three-decade existence, with 90% fully implemented nationwide.
Several of the committee&#8217;s web pages have been archived, according to the report, indicating they will no longer be updated. Members express concern that critical guidelines will stagnate despite evolving scientific research and emerging threats from drug-resistant organisms.

Trump Administration Quietly Disbands Key Infection Control Committee Weeks Before Notifying Members, Halting Updates To National Health Guidelines Amid Rising Disease Threats

As top officials from the U.S. and China prepare for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45242461/donald-trumps-trade-war-sparks-first-major-us-china-talks-scott-bessent-jamieson-greer-to-meet-chinese-delegation-in-geneva">first major face-to-face negotiations</a> amid the ongoing trade war this weekend in Geneva, Beijing has warned against any attempt to use dialogue as a tool of "coercion and extortion."
What Happened: U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will meet China's Vice-Premier He Lifeng from May 9 to 12, the Trump administration announced this week.
After confirming the upcoming talks, China's commerce ministry issued a separate statement to stress that Beijing agreed to the discussions only after "taking into full account global expectations, China's interests, and the appeals of U.S. industries and consumers."

Why It Matters: The statement warned that if the U.S. uses dialogue "as a tactic for further coercion," China will not bow down.
"If the US says one thing but does another, or even uses talks as a smokescreen to continue coercion and extortion, China will never accept it, nor will it compromise its principles or sacrifice international fairness and justice just to reach any agreement," the statement added, according <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/3309333/top-us-china-officials-meet-switzerland-discuss-trade-washington-says?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=homepage">to</a> the South China Morning Post.
The meeting could emerge as a turning point in a tense trade landscape, with the U.S. slapping tariffs as high as 145% on Chinese imports and Beijing retaliating with 125% duties on American goods.
A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45185792/young-americans-express-discontent-over-trumps-china-tariffs">recent poll</a> indicates that the trade war has impacted President Donald Trump&#8216;s approval ratings among young Americans who are dissatisfied with rising prices brought forth by tariffs.
Earlier this week, Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman shared his belief that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45215257/bill-ackman-calls-tariffs-a-one-time-reset-warns-prolonged-china-fight-could-drag-market-slump-to-q2">U.S. trade dispute will ease soon</a>, calling the tariffs "a one-time reset," not a trigger for sustained inflation.

Amazon&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) has revealed a revolutionary robot, Vulcan, which boasts a sense of touch, enabling it to manage approximately 75% of items in Amazon&#8217;s warehouses.
What Happened: As per&nbsp;Amazon&#8217;s announcement&nbsp;on Wednesday, Vulcan is set to be introduced at the company&#8217;s &#8220;Delivering the Future&#8221; event in Dortmund, Germany. The groundbreaking robot is set to be globally deployed in the coming years, playing a pivotal role in the online retail behemoth&#8217;s operations. 
According to Aaron Parness,&nbsp;Amazon&#8217;s&nbsp;director of robotics, Vulcan represents a &#8220;fundamental leap forward in robotics.&#8221; The robot will use AI to recognize objects through touch, assessing which ones it can handle and determining the most effective way to pick them up.
Vulcan will work in conjunction with human employees, stowing&nbsp;items on the upper and&nbsp;lower levels of shelving units. This will reduce the need for human workers to frequently use ladders or bend during their work.
Jeff Bezos&#8216;s Amazon also plans to implement technology that uses machine learning and automation to create custom packaging, reducing waste. This technology will be installed in several European countries&nbsp;by the end of this&nbsp;year, with more installations planned by 2027.

However, the rise of AI and robotics has also raised concerns about job security. in 2023, economists at Goldman Sachs projected that by 2030, generative AI could automate up to 300 million jobs globally, with many additional roles undergoing significant transformation, reported The Guardian. Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44757196/bernie-sanders-warns-the-job-you-have-today-aint-going-to-be-here-in-10-or-15-years-as-ai-and-robotics-threaten-us-workforce">Sen. Bernie Sanders</a> has warned American workers about significant changes in the job market due to AI and robotics.
Despite concerns about job losses due to increased automation, Tye Brady, the chief technologist of robotics at Amazon, told The Guardian that robots are there to &#8220;amplify the human potential&#8221; and enhance safety, not to entirely replace human workers. "People will always be part of the equation," asserted Brady.

Amazon Unveils Revolutionary Robot 'Vulcan' With Sense Of Touch To Handle 75% Of The Warehouse Items: 'People Will Always Be Part Of The Equation'

The estimated impact of a 10% tariff on our sales to the U.S. in the second half of the year would be less than 1% of our expected product revenues in 2025, and these cost would not be paid by Alvotech. Looking beyond 2025, given anticipated product launches and increased sales, we estimate that the impact would still constitute a low single digit percentage of Alvotech's anticipated total product revenues.

Alvotech Expects Minimal Impact From Potential U.S. Tariffs, With Less Than 1% Effect On 2025 Product Revenues

Economist Peter Schiff called Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent "a very smart man" after a viral hearing clip showed the Cabinet official stumbling over a simple question about who ultimately pays U.S. tariffs.
What Happened: "Our Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is a very smart man. He's not the blubbering idiot shown in this clip … He is stammering because he is struggling to formulate a BS explanation," Schiff wrote on X.

During Tuesday's House Appropriations session, Rep. Mark Pocan repeatedly asked, "Who pays tariffs, Mr. Secretary?" Bessent replied haltingly, calling the query "very complicated," before Pocan reclaimed his time. The stumble lit up social media because orthodox economics says tariffs are levied on U.S. importers, who often pass the cost to consumers through higher prices.
Bessent has been the public face of President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44720006/markets-take-off-as-trump-announces-90-day-tariff-pause-for-non-retaliating-nations-slaps-china-with-125-duty">125% levy</a> on Chinese goods, a policy roll‑out crafted alongside Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to curb the deficit.

Administration talking points argue Beijing bears the burden — an assertion economists like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/bonds/25/04/44805832/peter-schiff-counters-claims-china-wont-sell-us-treasuries-fearing-strong-currency-but-a-strong-yuan-might-suit-beijing">Schiff reject</a>. By hesitating, Schiff says, Bessent "knows the answer" but could not square it with the White House narrative.
Why It Matters: Bessent told House appropriators the economy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45227387/bessent-signals-imminent-trade-deals-dismisses-recession-fears-as-stocks-rebound">remains sturdy</a>, citing stronger‑than‑expected job growth and cooling inflation as evidence that the administration's "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45187535/scott-bessent-defends-trumps-economic-agenda-as-engine-designed-to-drive-economic-growth-despite-gdp-contraction-and-falling-approval">three‑legged stool</a>" of trade, tax cuts and deregulation is working. He dismissed recession worries, predicting first‑quarter GDP revisions will come in higher and forecasting solid tax receipts thanks to AI‑driven collection gains.
Even so, Bessent urged Congress to rein in spending, noting last year's 6.7% fiscal‑deficit-to‑GDP ratio was a peacetime record. "We have set the table for a robust economy that allows Main Street to grow," he said — a view echoed by Fundstrat's Tom Lee, who called the market's recent bounce a "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45032188/tom-lee-backs-scott-bessent-white-house-put-theory-as-nasdaq-flips-from-worst-april-start-since-great-depression-to-major-comeback">White House put</a>."
