Cellebrite DI Ltd. (CLBT) Integrates Generative AI into Guardian Platform to Enhance Digital Investigations
The evolving space of AI has been a major focus these days, as experts and executives are weighing in on how it is reshaping the tech sector. From the rise of open-source models to the shift towards AI agents that perform tasks autonomously, AI is quickly transforming industries. Advancements in large language models are continuing to progress and companies are rethinking their strategies, with some seeing AI as a commodity and others exploring new ways to harness its potential. At the same time, regulatory shifts and market reactions to these technological developments, like the introduction of DeepSeek's R1 model, are creating both opportunities and challenges for the future of AI in tech.
Financial Markets analyst, Fiona Cincotta recently discussed AI's impact on tech earnings and the regulatory environment under the new Trump administration on Bloomberg Technology. She highlighted that AI continues to be the main focus for investors, who are eager to see returns from the significant investments made in the sector. The optimism surrounding AI has helped maintain high stock valuations, as investors expect the potential for cost reductions in the future. However, Cincotta noted a divergence between software and hardware companies, with software firms benefiting from fewer restrictions, while chipmakers could face challenges due to tariffs and export limitations.
When talking about regulation, Cincotta mentioned that a potential reduction in regulation under the new administration could benefit the tech industry, especially in AI, where regulation is still an open question. She suggested that decreased regulation would likely boost stock prices in the tech sector.
She also discussed investor expectations, especially the pressure to see results from AI investments. While AI spending is still seen as crucial, the recent unveiling of DeepSeek raised questions about the sustainability of such investments. Investors are optimistic for now, but as we approach mid-2025, they will expect stronger revenue streams and profit margins. She pointed out that some Big Tech stocks are under scrutiny, with investors looking for solid financial returns as a measure of success. Nevertheless, the Mag7 tech stocks remain a focal point for investor interest.

Americans fear AI permanently displacing workers, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds
By Jason Lange and Alexandra Alper WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Americans are deeply concerned over the prospect that advances in artificial intelligence could put swaths of the country out of work permanently, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll. The six-day poll, which concluded on Monday, showed 71% of respondents said they were concerned that AI will be "putting too many people out of work permanently." The new technology burst into the national conversation in late 2022 when OpenAI's ChatGPT chatbot launched and became the fastest-growing application of all time, with tech heavyweights like Facebook owner Meta Platforms, Google owner Alphabet and Microsoft offering their own AI products. While at present there are few signs of mass unemployment - the U.S. jobless rate was just 4.2% in July - artificial intelligence is stirring concerns as it reshapes jobs, industries and day-to-day life. Some 77% of respondents to the Reuters/Ipsos poll said they worried the technology could be used to stir up political chaos, a sign of unease over the now-common use of AI technology to create realistic videos of imaginary events. President Donald Trump last month posted on social media an AI-generated video of former Democratic president Barack Obama being arrested, an event that never happened. Americans are also leery about military applications for AI, the Reuters/Ipsos poll showed. Some 48% of respondents said the government should never use AI to determine the target of a military strike, compared with 24% who said the government should allow that sort of use of the technology. Another 28% said they were not sure. The general enthusiasm for AI shown by many people and companies has fueled further investments, such as Foxconn and SoftBank's planned data center equipment factory in Ohio. It has also upended national security policies as the United States and China vie for AI dominance. More than half of Americans - some 61% - said they were concerned about the amount of electricity needed to power the fast-growing technology. Google said earlier this month it had signed agreements with two U.S. electric utilities to reduce its AI data center power consumption during times of surging demand on the grid, as energy-intensive AI use outpaces power supplies. The new technology has also come under criticism for applications that have let AI bots hold romantic conversations with children, generate false medical information and help people make racist arguments. Two-thirds of respondents in the Reuters/Ipsos poll said they worried that people would ditch relationships with other people in favor of AI companions. People were split on whether AI technology will improve education. Some 36% of respondents thought it would help, while 40% disagreed and the rest were not sure. The Reuters/Ipsos survey gathered responses online from 4,446 U.S. adults nationwide and had a margin of error of about 2 percentage points.

US stock futures flat ahead of big box retailer results
U.S. stock futures are flat after a listless start to the week as investors stayed sidelined ahead of quarterly results from big box retailers and a conference of global financial leaders later this week. Discount giants Walmart and Target and home improvement company Lowe's are slated to report around midweek. Home Depot is due before the market opens. These earnings can provide a window into how tariffs are affecting companies and consumer spending. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is set to give a speech at the end of the week at the annual Jackson Hole Economic Symposium of global central bankers and finance chiefs. Investors will be looking for hints Powell may be done waiting to see tariff effects before cutting rates again. The CME FedWatch tool that shows the likelihood that the Fed will change rates at each policy meeting based on market trading suggests a nearly 84% chance of the Fed easing rates in September. Before Powell's speech, investors will get a glimpse midweek of the dissents at the last Fed meeting. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman voted against the central bank's decision to keep rates unchanged between 4.25%-4.50% last month. It was the first time since 1993 that two governors dissented. At 6:10 a.m. ET, futures linked to the blue-chip Dow added 0.03%, while broad S&P 500 futures slipped -0.06% and tech-laden Nasdaq futures fell -0.05%.
