Tesla investors cheered Tuesday as Trump came to the defense of Musk’s beleaguered and boycotted carmaker by lavishing the Tesla CEO with praise in a press conference as five Teslas lined up in the White House driveway. Trump called Musk a “patriot” and announced that he had even bought one of his cars — a show of support that may have helped Tesla stock close higher for the day after a plunge a day earlier.
But experts warn the unusual presidential backing of a private company could backfire.

Apple is undertaking one of the most significant software overhauls in its history, aiming to revamp the user interface across iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices. This ambitious update, set for release later this year, will fundamentally transform the look and feel of Apple's operating systems, enhancing consistency and the user experience.
The updates are part of iOS 19 and iPadOS 19, codenamed "Luck," and macOS 16, dubbed "Cheer," according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. He cited sources who requested anonymity since the project has yet to be officially announced. These major upgrades will introduce a new design language while simplifying navigation and controls.
Apple's push for consistency across platforms aims to create a seamless user experience when switching between devices. Currently, applications, icons, and window styles vary significantly across macOS, iOS, and visionOS, leading to a disjointed experience.

Spain's government approved a bill imposing fines on companies that use AI-generated content without proper labeling, in a bid to curb "deepfakes." The bill follows EU AI Act guidelines, imposing transparency obligations on high-risk AI systems. Non-compliance can lead to fines of up to 35 million euros or 7% of global turnover. It also bans practices like subliminal manipulation and biometric profiling. Enforcement will be handled by the new AI supervisory agency AESIA, with exceptions for specific sectors.
