Instagram head Adam Mosseri raised concerns about the growing challenge of distinguishing between real and AI-generated images on social media platforms.
What Happened: In a series of posts on Threads on Sunday, Mosseri highlighted the need for social media platforms to provide more context to help users discern the authenticity of online content.
His warning comes amid increasing sophistication in AI technology, which is making it harder for users to identify real content.
In his posts, Mosseri stated that AI is &#8220;clearly producing&#8221; content that can easily be mistaken for reality. He urged users to consider the source of images and suggested that platforms should label AI-generated content as accurately as possible.

However, he acknowledged that some AI content might evade these labels. &#8220;My advice is to &#x2A;always&#x2A; consider who it is that is speaking.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/16000534/Screenshot-2024-12-16-at-10.35.29%E2%80%AFAM-1024x527.png" alt="" class="wp-image-693046" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Source: Threads</figcaption></figure>

Why It Matters: Currently, Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) does not offer extensive context as described by Mosseri, though the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38120400/meta-expands-labels-for-ai-generated-content-to-include-photos-and-audio-across-facebook-instagram-a">company has hinted at significant changes</a> to its content policies.
Mosseri&#8217;s vision aligns with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/39008030/elon-musks-x-wants-to-bring-community-notes-feature-to-newspapers-and-other-platforms-says-linda-yac">user-led moderation systems</a> like Community Notes on X, formerly Twitter, and custom moderation filters on platforms like YouTube or Bluesky.&nbsp;
The issue of AI-generated content is not new, but it is becoming more sophisticated and widespread. Previously, in Florida, an incident highlighted the potential for AI to be used in fraudulent activities, where a young investor was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/09/41051101/its-just-going-to-get-more-sophisticated-ai-fake-nearly-completes-fraudulent-land-deal">nearly deceived into purchasing</a> a non-existent property.
Moreover, a study by Google DeepMind revealed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39471997/google-deepmind-study-reveals-that-deepfakes-of-politicians-and-celebrities-more-common-than-ai-assi">deepfakes of public figures</a> are more common than AI-assisted cyber attacks, indicating a significant misuse of AI technology.&nbsp;
In response to these challenges, Meta has previously taken some steps to combat AI-generated disinformation. Earlier in May this year, the company dismantled several <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/39077408/meta-cracks-down-on-ai-generated-fake-news-campaigns-from-four-countries-including-china-and-russia">fake news campaigns</a> originating from countries like China and Russia, which used AI to spread false information.

Instagram Head Wants X's Community Notes-Like Feature To Offer Context On What People Are Saying, Warns Against Generative AI Blurring Lines Between Reality And Fiction

Amazon Teamsters threatened Sunday to strike against Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), escalating tensions between workers and the e-commerce giant ahead of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42323943/amazon-emerges-as-top-analyst-pick-after-impressive-us-e-commerce-cyber-week-sales-growth">crucial holiday shopping season</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;We are ready to strike to stop Amazon&#8217;s unfair labor practices,&#8221; the Amazon Teamsters posted on X. &#8220;Amazon is legally required to bargain a union contract that addresses our low pay and unsafe working conditions. We are going to hold this company accountable.&#8221;
The strike threat follows Thursday&#8217;s vote by workers at two New York City facilities—JFK8 and DBK4—to authorize strike action. The union set a Dec. 15 deadline for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/12/42490912/teamsters-authorize-strike-at-amazons-new-york-warehouses-get-ready-for-a-fight">Amazon to begin contract negotiations</a>.
&#8220;Amazon is pushing its workers closer to the picket line by failing to show them the respect they have earned,&#8221; said Teamsters General President Sean M. O&#8217;Brien.
Amazon spokesperson Eileen Hards disputed the union&#8217;s claims in an email to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga</a>, stating, "For more than a year now, the Teamsters have continued to intentionally mislead the public – claiming that they represent ‘thousands of Amazon employees and drivers'. They don't, and this is another attempt to push a false narrative.&#8221;
&#8220;The truth is that the Teamsters have actively threatened, intimidated, and attempted to coerce Amazon employees and third-party drivers to join them, which is illegal and is the subject of multiple pending unfair labor practice charges against the union.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The labor dispute comes during Amazon&#8217;s peak season, with the company reporting record Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. JP Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth recently named <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42323943/amazon-emerges-as-top-analyst-pick-after-impressive-us-e-commerce-cyber-week-sales-growth">Amazon his top retail pick</a>, citing the company&#8217;s dominant 45% share of U.S. e-commerce.
The facilities in question serve over 20 million residents in the New York metropolitan area. This year&#8217;s holiday shopping season is the shortest since 2019, with just 27 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas, adding pressure to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42101690/amazon-remains-best-idea-in-e-commerce-this-holiday-season-jpmorgan-analyst-says">Amazon&#8217;s delivery operations</a>.

Amazon Teamsters Threaten Strike Ahead Of Crucial Holiday Season: 'We Are Going To Hold This Company Accountable'

Renowned Wall Street investor and economist Dennis Gartman downplayed Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) record-breaking run on Friday, instead preferring gold due to its long history as a store of value.
What happened: During an interview with Bloomberg, Gartman said he was surprised by the leading cryptocurrency's climb above $100,000.
&#8220;It reminds me too much of the tulip bulb craze of 16th-century Holland and the high-tech craze of the late 1990s and early 20th century," the Chairman of the Akron University Investment Committee stated.
"I will leave it to others to buy; I will avoid it."
Gartman also dismissed Bitcoin's narrative of &#8220;digital gold," arguing that gold has been around for centuries.&nbsp;
"It [Bitcoin] has months of being valued at some price. Gold has centuries of being valued as an asset. I will take the centuries bet over the monthly bet almost anytime," Gartman said.
Despite the pessimism, the veteran investor said he won't sell Bitcoin short. "I will leave it to people wiser or more dreadworthy than I am."

Why It Matters: Bitcoin is in the middle of a bull run, having <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/12/42500721/bitcoin-breaks-106k-ethereum-dogecoin-rally-ahead-of-key-fed-meet-but-top-analyst-triggers-anxiety-with-this-observation">recently topped $106,000 for the first time</a>. 
The world's largest digital asset by market capitalization has gained over 70% since Donald Trump emerged victorious in the November elections as investors count on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42499633/exclusive-eric-trump-declares-bitcoin-the-future-details-tax-free-crypto-goals-for-trump-presidency">pro-cryptocurrency measures during his presidency</a>.
Bitcoin has surged 150% year-to-date, dwarfing returns from other asset classes, including gold. While the yellow metal also hit its all-time high in 2024, it has secured year-to-date gains of just about 29%.
Gartman's positioning is similar to another well-known Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff, who routinely <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/24/11/41896213/economist-peter-schiff-sees-a-silver-lining-as-gold-plummets-while-investors-rush-to-snap-up-bitcoin-gains-typicallysilver-would-be-down-twice-as-much">discounts BTC&#8217;s performance</a>, promoting gold as a better investment option.

Wall Street Veteran Dennis Gartman Chooses Gold Over Bitcoin Despite BTC's Record-Breaking Bull Run: 'I Prefer Centuries Bet Over Monthly Bet'

Marc Andreessen has lauded OpenAI&#8217;s Sora <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42398825/sam-altman-calls-openais-new-video-generator-so-compelling">video model</a>, suggesting it may have resolved a significant challenge in robotics.
What Happened: In a conversation with Chris Williamson posted on YouTube on Sunday, Andreessen, co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz, elaborated on Sora&#8217;s technology.
He said that the model&#8217;s capability to generate video from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42500663/rip-hollywood-joe-rogan-shares-openais-sora-video-asking-the-question-on-everyones-mind-is-a-trillion-dollar-industry-at-risk">text prompts and create realistic video</a> representations that pass the &#8220;sniff test&#8221; of human perception is &#8220;very magical.&#8221;
The Sora model is trained on extensive video data, yet it goes beyond simple 2D video generation, he stated, adding that it accurately simulates 3D reality, including lighting, reflections, and translucency, which are crucial for realistic video rendering.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42495758/elon-musk-finds-an-unlikely-ally-in-mark-zuckerbergs-meta-in-his-fight-against-sam-altmans-openai?itm_source=parsely-api">Elon Musk Finds An Unlikely Ally In Mark Zuckerberg&#8217;s Meta In His Fight Against Sam Altman&#8217;s OpenAI</a>
Andreessen believes this advancement in video modeling could solve the fundamental challenge of robotics: enabling robots to navigate the real world safely and effectively.
He stated that a comprehensive understanding of 3D physical reality, or a &#8220;world model,&#8221; is essential for robots to interact with their environment without errors.
"It [Sora model] actually understands 3D physical reality. The implication of that is that we may have basically just solved the fundamental challenge of robotics. The fundamental challenge of robotics is how do you get a physical robot to navigate the real world without screwing everything up," he stated.
"Up until now building a world model like that has been difficult or impossible and it now appears that that&#8217;s actually starting to work," Andreessen concluded.

Why It Matters: While Andreessen may have praised OpenAI's video model, he has long been at odds with the way the ChatGPT-parent operates.
Earlier this year, he was involved in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37448936/would-you-open-source-the-manhattan-project-vinod-khosla-and-marc-andreessen-clash-over-musks-openai">a public debate with OpenAI investor</a> Vinod Khosla over the security of open-source software, particularly in the context of Elon Musk&#8217;s lawsuit against OpenAI. Andreessen argued that open-source software is secure due to its transparency.
In September, Andreessen Horowitz <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40722123/openai-co-founder-ilya-sutskevers-ai-startup-raises-1b-from-andreessen-horowitz-sequoia-as-sam-altma">invested $1 billion</a> in Safe Superintelligence (SSI), an AI startup co-founded by Ilya Sutskever. Sutskever, who also co-founded OpenAI, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38834519/openai-chief-scientist-ilya-sutskever-steps-down-ceo-sam-altman-calls-him-a-guiding-light-of-ai-fiel">left ChatGPT-maker earlier</a> this year.&nbsp;
Last month, Andreessen also commented on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41932289/ai-capabilities-plateauing-say-andreessen-horowitz-founders-echoing-concerns-of-openai-co-founder-ilya-sutskever">plateauing of AI capabilities</a> during a podcast discussion, underscoring the importance of breakthroughs like Sora in pushing the boundaries of what AI can achieve.

Marc Andreessen Praises OpenAI's Sora Video Model: 'We May Have Basically Just Solved The Fundamental Challenge Of Robotics'

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) shares jumped more than 3% in overnight trading on Robinhood following the company&#8217;s high-profile presence at the Army-Navy football game, where its executives were spotted alongside key political figures.
What Happened: The data analytics company&#8217;s stock, which closed at $76.07 on Friday after gaining 3.92% in regular trading, continued its upward momentum as images of an advertisement circulated on social media showing Palantir executives, including Chief Technology Officer Shyam Sankar and co-founder Joe Lonsdale, at the prestigious military matchup.

Palantir Surges Over 3% In Overnight Trading After Army-Navy Game Spotlight, Elon Musk And Trump's Presence, And Nasdaq 100 Inclusion

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is reportedly planning to launch foldable iPhones and ultralight devices by 2026.
What Happened: Apple is reportedly working on a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38900479/apple-plans-for-thinner-more-expensive-iphone-17-in-2025">thinner iPhone model</a>, expected to be more affordable than the Pro versions.
This device will feature a simplified camera system to cut costs, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/apple-thin-iphone-foldable-computer-plans-dbb4286c?mod=mhp">reported</a> The Wall Street Journal on Sunday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The tech giant is also developing two foldable devices: a larger one that unfolds to a 19-inch screen, and a smaller foldable iPhone, the sources noted.
Challenges in hinge and display cover technology have delayed these foldable designs, but Apple is pushing for a 2026 release.

While Apple initially planned to launch the larger foldable device first to assess market reception, it now seems that the foldable iPhone will likely debut earlier.
Executives are targeting a 2026 release for the foldable iPhone, though an additional year may be required to resolve ongoing technical issues, the report noted, citing sources.
Meanwhile, the ultrathin iPhone is expected to cater to consumers who prioritize a sleek design over some of the advanced features found in the Pro models.
Analyst Jeff Pu from Haitong International Securities noted that current foldable phones do not meet Apple&#8217;s standards for thinness, lightness, and energy efficiency.
Apple did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.&nbsp;

Why It Matters: This move aims to boost consumer interest amid stagnant smartphone sales. Apple&#8217;s iPhone business, which contributes significantly to its revenue, has seen minimal growth. The company is seeking new ways to accelerate growth.
Earlier in August, it was reported that Apple is working on a thinner version of the iPhone 17, dubbed the &#8220;Air,&#8221; which could potentially <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40332493/apples-thinner-iphone-17-air-with-sleeker-design-could-be-a-game-changer-says-promi">reignite consumer interest</a> in its flagship product. The device could be a significant redesign akin to the iPhone X.
Apple&#8217;s smartphone sales saw a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41551122/apples-q3-smartphone-sales-slip-despite-strong-iphone-16-demand-market-share-dropped-slightly">slight 0.3% decline year-over-year</a> in the third quarter, yet demand for the iPhone 16 series remained steady compared to previous models, according to an IDC report. This performance enabled Apple to regain the second spot in China's smartphone market, securing a 15.6% share.&nbsp;
In October, Apple reported fiscal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41666494/apple-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-installed-base-hits-new-highs-iphone-sales-rise-as-apple-in">fourth-quarter revenue</a> of $94.9 billion, surpassing analyst projections of $94.56 billion. iPhone sales contributed $46.22 billion, up from $43.8 billion in the same period last year.
On Sunday, Mark Gurman in his latest installment of the weekly "Power On" newsletter reported that Apple is exploring the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/12/42500167/could-apple-set-revolutionize-tablet-market-with-18-8-inch-foldable-ipad">tablet market with a potential</a> 18.8-inch foldable iPad by 2028.
This device is expected to offer a seamless experience, similar to using two iPad Pros side-by-side, and may incorporate features from both Macs and iPads.
Price Action: Apple&#8217;s stock edged up 0.069% on Friday, finishing the day at $248.13. Year-to-date, the company&#8217;s shares have increased by 33.66%.
The latest price targets from Morgan Stanley, Needham, and Wedbush suggest an average target of $277.67, indicating a potential upside of 11.96%, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Apple Eyes 2026 To Launch Foldable iPhones And Ultralight Devices As It Looks To Revitalize Sales Momentum: Report

World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency project backed by President-elect Donald Trump, continued to add momentum to the coins it was purchasing.
What happened: ONDO, a tokenization-themed cryptocurrency, zoomed over 11% to record-breaking highs, becoming the fourth-biggest market gainer over the last 24 hours.
The coin's trading volume surged over 73% to $483 million, suggesting significant buying pressure.
ONDO serves as the governance token of Ondo Finance, a decentralized finance platform built atop Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) that tokenizes real-world assets.

Trump-Backed World Liberty Financial's Purchases Trigger Strong Rally In These DeFi Tokens

Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, suggests Tesla Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) entry into the robotaxi market could trigger a swift transformation of the ride-hailing industry, pointing to Alphabet Inc.

What Happened: Wood&#8217;s comments on X, formerly Twitter, came after data shared by Alex Immerman, Partner at Andreessen Horowitz showed Waymo had matched Lyft Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) market share in San Francisco, reaching 22% of rides within its operating boundary. Uber Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NASDAQ">UBER</a>) leads with 55% of the market.
&#8220;When Tesla&#8217;s solution enters the market next year, the transition is likely to shift from &#8216;slowly, slowly&#8217; to &#8216;all at once,'&#8221; Wood wrote on Sunday.

Why It Matters: Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced plans to launch ride-hailing services in Texas and California next year, pending regulatory approval. While initial operations may require human <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41593922/cathie-woods-ark-invest-sees-tesla-unlocking-11-trillion-revenue-potential-with-rob">drivers in some states</a>, Musk expects to operate driverless paid rides in 2025.
The company recently unveiled its purpose-built robotaxi, the Cybercab, scheduled for production before 2027. Until then, Tesla plans to use its Model 3 and Model Y vehicles for the ride-hailing fleet.
However, some analysts remain cautious. Gary Black, managing partner at The Future Fund LLC, excludes robotaxi revenue from his Tesla valuations until competitive dynamics become clearer. 
Black expects multiple automakers to receive approval for unsupervised autonomy simultaneously, suggesting market dynamics will be demand-driven <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41420662/gary-black-explains-why-he-doesnt-factor-in-robotaxi-or-optimus-to-tesla-valuation-investors-may">rather than supply-controlled</a>.

What Happened: Speaking on CBS News&#8217; Face the Nation <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNedr8xrYEo">on</a> Sunday, Waltz emphasized the need to address &#8220;gaps in our agencies&#8221; and &#8220;gaps in our authorities between the Department of Homeland Security, local law enforcement, the Defense Department.&#8221; He advocated for expanding Israel&#8217;s Iron Dome concept to include <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/24/10/41145100/opportunity-in-missile-defense-stocks-once-in-a-century-buying-stampede-in-hong-kong">drone defense capabilities</a>.
The drone sightings, which began in New Jersey in mid-November and have spread to Maryland and Massachusetts, have drawn conflicting responses from officials. Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-N.J.) suggested possible <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42476184/jeff-van-drew-calls-out-pentagon-for-hiding-information-about-mysterious-new-jersey-drones-national-security-crisis-we-cannot-ignore">connections to Iranian operations</a>, claims the Pentagon explicitly denied through spokesperson Sabrina Singh.

The drone sightings, reportedly up to six feet in diameter and undetectable by radio frequency monitoring, mirror similar incidents over U.S. military installations in Virginia and the United Kingdom, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42476184/jeff-van-drew-calls-out-pentagon-for-hiding-information-about-mysterious-new-jersey-drones-national-security-crisis-we-cannot-ignore">intensifying national security concerns</a>.
The controversy emerges as the incoming Trump administration signals a shift in military aviation strategy. Elon Musk, Trump&#8217;s pick to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency.
Recently, Musk criticized Lockheed Martin Corp.&#8216;s F-35 program, advocating for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42157649/trumps-doge-co-lead-elon-musk-slams-lockheed-martins-f-35-fighter-jets-advocates-drone-warfare-as-pentagon-defends-1-8-trillion-program">drone warfare over manned aircraft</a>.

&#8216;RIP Hollywood?&#8217;—Joe Rogan Shares OpenAI&#8217;s Sora Video, Saying Out Loud What Everybody Is Thinking—Is A Trillion Dollar Industry In Jeopardy?
Joe Rogan's Instagram story recently caught attention when he shared a video created with OpenAI's AI video generator, Sora. Many fans were stunned by the video, which included everything from monkeys to the fabled Kraken and provoked a heated discussion. Rogan's story, which included the text "RIP Hollywood?" <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DDXiz-Csxdw/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;ig_rid=204f4211-4274-447d-ae48-6ffdd6082d41">shared</a> by the user Evolving.ai wasn't just clickbait – it's a question that's rapidly gaining relevance as AI tools like Sora push the boundaries of video production.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Game-Changer for Video Creation</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42398825/sam-altman-calls-openais-new-video-generator-so-compelling">OpenAI officially launched Sora</a> as part of its "12 Days of OpenAI" event, offering the tool to ChatGPT Plus and Pro subscribers. Billed as &#8220;GPT-1 for video,&#8221; Sora allows users to create and modify videos using simple text prompts. Users can create clips up to 20 seconds long and even complete missing frames in videos that already exist. This sounds like a dream come true for creators, allowing for far faster prototyping and content creation with much fewer resources.
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, said, "This is early … but I already think the feed is so compelling. Excited to see what you make."

While Hollywood insiders are watching nervously, Sora has already shown its potential to democratize content creation for smaller studios and independent creators. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39496418/could-openais-sora-be-a-boon-for-small-studios-and-indie-content-creators-new-toys-r-us-origin-story">Toys "R" Us used Sora</a> to produce a brand film showcased at the Cannes Lions Festival, with the AI handling about 85% of the production. Creative agency Native Foreign applied some finishing touches, but the project's speed and cost-effectiveness highlight Sora's appeal.
For indie creators, tools like Sora could be the key to competing in an industry historically dominated by big-budget studios. However, this shift comes with risks – notably, the potential obsolescence of traditional video production jobs.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Controversy and Criticism</h2>
Sora hasn't been free of controversy. In November, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42206104/openais-sora-video-model-leak-exposes-deep-rift-with-artists-unpaid-rd-pr-puppets-and-content-approval-fury-what-you-need-to-know">beta testers leaked an early version</a> of the tool, accusing OpenAI of exploiting artists for "unpaid R&amp;D." The leaked model fueled debates about how AI tools are trained and whether they rely on publicly available content without proper attribution or compensation.
Trending: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?
Additionally, some industry observers, like YouTuber Marques Brownlee, have <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY2x0TyKzIQ">pointed out</a> limitations in Sora's ability to replicate real-world physics or create complex scenes. Despite these shortcomings, Brownlee acknowledged the tool's immense potential, calling it "horrifying and inspiring."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Trillion-Dollar Industry on the Brink?</h2>
The media and entertainment industry, forecast to surpass $1 trillion by analysts at Omdia, is at a pivotal moment. Segments like online video, gaming and music are driving growth, while ad-supported streaming services like FAST (Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV) are reshaping consumer habits. Yet, the rapid rise of AI video tools like Sora could be introducing a new layer of disruption.
While Rogan's "RIP Hollywood" comment is dramatic, it stresses a growing tension. AI tools like Sora are enabling unprecedented creative possibilities, but they're also raising ethical questions and challenging long-standing industry norms. Whether this will result in a golden age of democratized creativity or an era of job displacement and homogenized content remains to be seen.

'RIP Hollywood?' Joe Rogan Shares OpenAI's Sora Video, Asking The Question On Everyone's Mind – Is A Trillion-Dollar Industry At Risk?

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42378433/suze-orman-warns-fear-is-fueled-by-stress-why-60-dont-manage-it-and-4-in-10-worry-about-retirement-savings">Suze Orman</a> wants you to rethink how you give to charity, especially if you're retired and have a healthy savings account.&nbsp;
In her latest blog post, the financial guru explained the brilliant tax-saving potential of Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs). Spoiler alert: This strategy could be a game-changer for retirees who want to support good causes without giving Uncle Sam more than his share.

</ul>
"A QCD is a powerful way to lower your taxes while helping the organizations you care about," Orman wrote. Here's how it works: if you're at least 70½ years old, you can donate directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to a qualifying charity.&nbsp;
The best part is that the donation doesn't count as taxable income. For 2024, the cap is $105,000 per person; in 2025, it bumps up to $108,000. But there's a catch – you must act fast to meet the Dec. 31 deadline for this tax year.
"This isn't something you want to leave until the last minute," Orman warned. "Reach out to your brokerage as soon as possible because these transfers can take time to process."

The benefits don't stop at reducing your taxable income. QCDs also help retirees manage pesky Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs). If you've got a traditional IRA, the government requires you to withdraw money annually by age 73 (or 75 if you're turning 75 after 2032). These withdrawals are treated as ordinary income; yes, you pay taxes on every dollar.
But here's where the QCD swoops in to save the day. Orman explains: "If your RMD for 2025 is $20,000 and you donate $8,000 through a QCD, that $8,000 counts toward your RMD but isn't taxable. You only pay taxes on the remaining $12,000." That's less money to the IRS and more for you to keep – or give.
Beyond immediate tax savings, a QCD can shrink your IRA balance, which lowers future RMDs and their associated tax bills. It's a smart long-term move for retirees who want to keep more money in their pockets.
However, Orman makes it clear that this strategy isn't for everyone. "You need to be 100% sure you have more than<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/04/38466698/are-you-saving-enough-to-be-in-the-top-3-of-retirees-heres-how-much-you-need"> enough savings</a> to cover your retirement before considering a QCD," she stressed.&nbsp;
She advises consulting a trusted financial professional to ensure this move aligns with your financial plan.
According to Giving USA, charitable donations in the U.S. hit a record $557 billion in 2023. Also, a study by Fidelity Charitable found that 59% of retirees gave at least $1,000 to charity in 2023, making QCDs an attractive option for those looking to give smarter.

'Have More Than You Need? Don't Waste It!'—Suze Orman Reveals How IRA Charitable Gifts Can Cut Taxes And Shrink Your RMDs

Elon Musk is said to share an unexpected bond with Barron Trump, President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s youngest son and only child with Melania Trump. The news was shared by none other than Musk&#8217;s mother, Maye Musk.
What Happened: Maye Musk unveiled the surprising relationship between her son and Barron Trump during an interview <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/video/6365912011112">with</a> Fox Business.
During the conversation, Maye spoke about Elon and Barron bonded over out-of-this-world exploration. 
&#8220;At the Thanksgiving dinner, Barron and Elon were talking planets. Barron&#8217;s 18 years old. They were discussing all the different planets and why Mars is the best place to start a new civilization. And I was very impressed with him, too,&#8221; she said. 
Maye stated that her son aims to &#8220;achieve positive outcomes&#8221; for America and described Trump as being &#8220;transparent and forthright&#8221; about his executive plans.

Talking about her son and Donald Trump&#8217;s bonding, Maye said, &#8220;I think Trump just wants everything to be honest and open so that you know where your&nbsp;tax dollars are going. He&#8217;s not going to be mean to people. When I see him, he just seems happy that he can make changes that will improve the lives of Americans. I think we&#8217;re all going to be happier.&#8221;
Why It Matters: The unexpected bond between Musk and Barron Trump comes as a surprise to many. While Musk is known for his groundbreaking work in the tech industry, Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, is still a teenager. 
The nature of their connection remains undisclosed, sparking curiosity among the public. This revelation could potentially shed new light on the personal life of the tech mogul, who is often in the limelight for his professional achievements.

Elon Musk's Mother Opens Up About His Friendship With Barron Trump: 'Bonded Over Out-Of-This-World Exploration'

CNN And MSNBC Ratings Slashed In Half, Collapse To Their Lowest Levels In Nearly 30 Years With Billionaires Circling
The political media landscape is undergoing a dramatic shake-up. CNN and MSNBC, two of the biggest cable news networks, are facing historic ratings declines, with their viewership slashed nearly in half since the recent presidential election. Both networks struggle to retain their audiences, collapsing to levels not seen in nearly 30 years. Meanwhile, Fox News has held steady, dominating the cable news space.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Viewership in Freefall</h2>
MSNBC&#8217;s prime-time audience has taken a staggering 53% hit, dropping from 1.34 million viewers before the election to just 632,000. CNN hasn't fared much better, losing 47% of its prime-time viewers, down to 398,000. On some nights, these networks aren't just losing to Fox News – they're losing to lifestyle channels like the Food Network, where more viewers are tuning into shows like Chopped than CNN's Anderson Cooper or MSNBC's Jen Psaki.

</ul>
While it's normal for political news viewership to dip after a major event like an election, Forbes reports that this drop is unusually severe. Fox News, by contrast, has barely felt the effects, with only a minor decline in its prime-time audience, holding strong at around 2.63 million viewers.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Went Wrong?</h2>
The collapse of CNN and MSNBC isn't just about a postelection lull. Analysts and critics say <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42257031/670269">it's about trust – </a>or a lack of it. Many viewers feel these networks failed to prepare them for what was coming and didn't offer a compelling vision for the future. MSNBC spent months criticizing Trump but lacked urgency in its coverage of the election's aftermath. And the network faced backlash when Morning Joe hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, despite years of calling him a &#8220;fascist.&#8221;
CNN, on the other hand, has struggled with its identity. It attempts to appear neutral while airing segments that many find inconsistent or disingenuous, like undecided voter panels that later turn out to feature obvious Trump supporters. The result? A growing number of viewers no longer trust the network.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Independent Media Rises</h2>
As left-leaning audiences tune out from CNN and MSNBC, many turn to independent media for their news. Platforms like The David Pakman Show and Secular Talk are seeing audiences stabilize or grow as viewers seek more authentic voices. Unlike corporate media, independent outlets don't have layers of executives and advertisers influencing their content, which resonates with disillusioned viewers.
David Pakman himself has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8KahcQ7sUc">noted</a> that the current collapse of CNN and MSNBC reflects a broader trend: &#8220;Increasingly, they are turning to independent media where they feel they can get honest, genuine coverage from people that they can trust.&#8221;

Fox News, meanwhile, has kept its audience engaged by framing Trump's victory as the start of a new fight. According to Pakman, its viewers treat politics as a 24/7 cultural battle, which has kept them loyal and energized. With a steady stream of outrage-driven coverage, Fox News has maintained its position as the leader in cable news, holding onto nearly all its viewers postelection.

CNN And MSNBC Ratings Plunge By Half, Reaching 30-Year Lows – And Billionaires Are Paying Attention

The co-founders of crypto analytics firm Glassnode have predicted a potential rally in Altcoins, just in time for the holiday season.
What Happened: Jan Happel and Yann Allemann, who are known as Negentropic on social media X, have shared their insights. They suggest that Altcoins could outshine Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) in the coming weeks.
The Glassnode co-founders have been keeping a close watch on&nbsp;the Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) chart,&nbsp;which indicates&nbsp;the percentage of the total&nbsp;crypto market cap that Bitcoin represents. 
They propose that the BTC.D has turned bearish, which could potentially set the stage for altcoins to appreciate in value at a faster rate than Bitcoin.
