Bari Weiss may be losing control of CBS News. According to Puck News today, Paramount-Skydance is in informal talks to strip her of day-to-day control over 60 Minutes, CBS Evening News, and CBS Mornings. CNN CEO Mark Thompson is being considered to take over. David Ellison met with him in recent days. Five months ago, Weiss killed Sharyn Alfonsi’s 60 Minutes piece on CECOT — the El Salvador prison where the Trump administration sends deportees. Alfonsi’s email to staffers: “It is factually correct. Pulling it now is not an editorial decision. It is a political one.” Weiss reportedly threatened to sue Alfonsi over the dispute. Yesterday Anderson Cooper left 60 Minutes. He had been on Weiss’s short list to anchor the Evening News. He turned the anchor job down. Then he declined to renew his 60 Minutes contract. Paramount’s official statement today: “Bari has the full support of Paramount and David Ellison. Reports suggesting otherwise are inaccurate.” Under the proposed restructure, Weiss wouldn’t be fired. She’d keep “broad editorial influence.” She’d just lose the daily TV control. The face changes. The CECOT story stays buried.

Big day 🔥 🚀 Introducing Dolphin AI - an agentic AI studio for complete video production. The story of Dolphin is very interesting. It didn’t start as a product. It started as an internal tool. We started with one question: Why does AI video still struggle the moment you ask it to remember what happened before? The real problem was CONTEXT. Characters change. Faces drift. Locations and props lose consistency. So we started building video differently, around three ideas: better context, multi-shot generation and stitched workflows. Before opening Dolphin AI to the world, 45k+ videos were created through it in our test phase And we saw the impact firsthand: → Better CTR and CTI on ad creatives → Higher engagement and retention across micro-drama and micro-learning → Faster creative experimentation and iteration We started operating at a very different scale: Story TV : : 5,000+ dramas. From 100 dramas a month to 250+ now. Master: 20,000+ micro learning series. Ad creatives: From 15K to 100K+ every month. That gave us conviction that the answer isn’t another model. It’s a better creative system. For someone starting out, Dolphin has 120+ templates for UGC, social and other use cases. For creative professionals, our Playground feature brings models, generation and editing into one workspace. And for longer-form storytelling, World Lock carries characters, voices, wardrobes, props, locations and the visual world across shots. The system remembers, so the creator can focus on creating. But our ambition with Dolphin is much bigger than the product... India is already one of the world’s largest consumers of content. We believe AI can help us become one of its largest creators and exporters 🇮🇳 We have the storytellers. We have the ideas. AI can give that creativity production scale. @trydolphinai is our bet on that future 🇮🇳🐬 We are live today at trydolphin(dot)ai for early access Join the waitlist or DM me for an invite code.

.@AndrewYang on why AI growth won’t reach most Americans without UBI: "AI is going to increase GDP and economic output very substantially. And right now GDP's at 84,000 a head. It's gonna pass 90 and then 100,000 a head, and then keep on going." "The problem is that most Americans are not going to feel that in their own lives. They might see a number on a TV screen somewhere, but the money isn't gonna flow to them." "I was saying $1,000 a month in 2020. Now that would be 1,250 a month, adjusted for inflation." "That would be a game changer to millions of Americans. 1,250 a month would get the boot off their throat. And do I think that's enough? Do I think we should be doing more? I do. But I'd love to have that as a foundation or a floor." "Right now we're in a bit of a bind where the work is going to be done by machines, and machines aren't gonna pay taxes, and then humans are gonna lose their jobs. And when we work, we do pay taxes." "You're going to be in the worst of all worlds where the value is going someplace else. We're not gonna see taxable revenue, and then the tax base is going to shrink." @Fwd_Party
