Two Courtroom Dramas: Google Search on Trial & Sam Bankman-Fried Makes His Case 10/30/23

The United Auto Workers union has reached a tentative deal with Stallantis. CNBC’s Phil LeBeau reports the details of the deal and the outlook for GM, which is still at the negotiating table. Two courtroom dramas are underway: Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai is testifying in the DoJ’s antitrust case against Google, and disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried is testifying in his own fraud trial. In DC, former White House Chief Technology Officer Aneesh Chopra considers the price of Google search and the many nuances of alleged anticompetitive business. In New York, Puck founding partner Teddy Schleifer has followed the Sam Bankman-Fried case from the beginning, and offers his outlook on the case, the defense, the evidence, and the jury so far. Plus, CNBC’s Eamon Javers has the details on President Biden’s Executive Order on AI, former Vice President Mike Pence has dropped out of the race for President, and a familiar voice made a cameo on the Simpsons!
