Summary

Elon Musk is suing OpenAI, the company he co-founded. His argument: Sam Altman and the OpenAI team have departed from the founding mission to innovate “for the benefit of humanity broadly.” Along with the rest of the country, New York City is navigating a migrant crisis. NYC Mayor Eric Adams discusses his plans for the city’s newest residents, the city’s uptick in illegal marijuana shops, regulating social media, and the rising presence of electric vehicles. Plus, a month after Apple launched its Vision Pro, Wall Street Journal personal tech columnist Joanna Stern says she’s using it differently now, than she was at first–like on planes and for workouts.
