On Tuesday, during a podcast, Mark Zuckerberg said that Meta Platforms, Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) artificial intelligence future will cater to both billions of free users and a group willing to pay big for powerful digital agents.
What Happened: In a conversation with podcast host Dwarkesh Patel, which was posted on social media on Tuesday, Zuckerberg outlined how he sees AI being monetized — and it's not just about digital ads.
While acknowledging the power of advertising to support free consumer-facing AI tools, Zuckerberg made it clear that other models, especially paid services, will play a major role.
"There's going to be all these different applications, and different applications tend toward different things," Zuckerberg said. "Ads are great when you want to offer people a free service&#8230; They can get something that is amazing for free."
However, Zuckerberg noted that not every AI use case will work within the ad-supported model, especially those that require heavy computing.

"Not everyone is going to want a software engineer, or a thousand software engineering agents, or whatever it is. But if you do, that's something you're probably going to be willing to pay thousands, or tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of dollars for," he said.
Zuckerberg compared it to how people pay for Netflix or ESPN because the production costs are too high to be covered by ads alone. "You just need to pay to access it. The trade-off is fewer people do it&#8230; There's a value switch there."
He added that Meta will likely support both models — a free, ad-funded offering for the masses, and a premium, compute-intensive tier for those who need more power.
&#8220;I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;ll end up having a premium service. But I think our basic values on this are that we want to serve as many people in the world as possible,&#8221; he concluded.

JetBlue Airways Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) is reportedly in talks with United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) over a partnership between the two companies.
What Happened: The New York-based airline is seeking partnerships with other airlines in the U.S. after talks of an alliance with American Airlines Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) fell through in 2023. However, the partnership with United will be different, sources told Reuters on Wednesday.
Sources in the report suggest the partnership will focus on increased connectivity as well as more opportunities for customers to utilize frequent flier miles, but won't coordinate on schedules and pricing.
Interestingly, JetBlue President Marty St. George shared with investors that the airline was negotiating partnerships with other airlines during the company's earnings call.
"We are looking at and we're talking to multiple airlines about domestic partnerships. I think we're getting very close to making announcement, expect to make the announcement this quarter," St. George said.
Why It Matters: News of the possible negotiations comes in as JetBlue has been battling <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45070298/jetblue-warns-of-weak-travel-demand-pulls-2025-outlook">a difficult quarter</a>, with the airline sharing at the earnings call that its revenue was down 3.1% YoY and capacity fell 4.3% compared to the last quarter.
"We expect softened demand for off-peak travel to continue into the second quarter, where the booking curve is more exposed to macro uncertainty and deteriorating consumer confidence," St. George said in the call.
JetBlue was<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/01/42791291/jetblue-fined-2-million-for-chronic-flight-delays-delta-united-rank-among-most-on-time-airlines"> fined $2 million </a>earlier this year by the U.S. Government's Department of Transportation (DOT) for multiple "chronically delayed flights."
The company was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44671680/which-us-airline-is-facing-the-strongest-industry-tailwinds">also exploring a possible acquisition </a>of budget air travel company Spirit Airlines (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVEQ#OTC">SAVEQ</a>), but talks fell through between the two companies.
Price Action: JBLU is currently trading at $4.18 on the NASDAQ, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

In Response To Escalating Insurance Losses From Large-scale Civil Unrest Events In Recent Years, Leading Global Analytics And Data Provider Verisk Is Releasing The Industry's First-of-its-kind Catastrophe Model To Help Quantify The Financial Impacts Of Strikes, Riots And Civil Commotion In The United States

At a Michigan rally commemorating the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45089307/trump-says-hes-already-ended-inflation-at-michigan-rally-held-to-mark-100-days-in-office-promises-to-protect-medicare-and-social-security-democrats-plan-senate-ba">100th day of his second term</a>, President Donald Trump once again remarked on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, claiming the superiority of his own knowledge over the former's without taking his name.
What Happened: Addressing supporters at Macomb Community College, Trump said: "Inflation is basically down and interest rates came down despite the fact that I have a Fed person who&#8217;s not really doing a good job, but I won&#8217;t say that… You&#8217;re supposed to let him do his own thing, but I know much more than he does about interest rates, believe me."
Trump&#8217;s comments come in the heels of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45074861/us-consumer-expectations-falls-to-13-year-lows-as-recession-fears-inflation-worries-surge">report shared by The Conference Board</a>, which indicates that consumer confidence in the U.S. dropped sharply in April, with the Expectations Index plunging to 54.4. This is its lowest level since October 2011. 
The overall Consumer Confidence Index <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45074861/us-consumer-expectations-falls-to-13-year-lows-as-recession-fears-inflation-worries-surge">fell 7.9 points to 86</a>, marking its fifth consecutive monthly decline. The drop implies increasing pessimism about inflation and job prospects, triggering fears of a potential recession as values below 80 have historically signaled downturns.

Why It Matters:  Trump&#8217;s latest remarks come as tensions between him and the central bank over the direction of interest rate policy continue to fester. While the Fed has maintained its benchmark federal funds rate at <a href="https://www.newyorkfed.org/markets/reference-rates/effr">4.33%</a>, Trump has continuously called for further cuts, arguing that inflation is no longer a pressing issue.
The Fed, however, remains cautious due to economic turmoil, partly generated by Trump's tariff policies. Despite his attacks, Trump has rescinded calls for removing Powell, saying, "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44940900/us-futures-dollar-jump-amid-trumps-latest-comments-on-fed-nikkei-rebounds-to-three-week-high">I have no intention to firing him</a>."
Despite tensions with Trump, Powell's stance has been firm. His <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44943304/feds-jerome-powell-isnt-budging-on-rate-cut-despite-trumps-bashing-and-pressure-heres-why">refusal to cut rates</a> is grounded in the Fed's data-driven mandate, enduring concerns about inflation, and a robust labor market. Powell has also reminded critics that the Fed's authority is based on law, and its leaders are safeguarded from removal over mere policy disagreements.

Two people connected with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) were provided accounts on classified U.S. government networks that manage sensitive nuclear weapons data, according to a report.
What Happened: Luke Farritor, a 23-year-old former SpaceX intern, and Adam Ramada, a Miami venture capitalist, appeared in directories on two classified systems run by the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and the Department of Defense, NPR <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/04/28/nx-s1-5378684/doge-energy-department-nuclear-secrets-access">reported</a>, citing sources.
These networks include the NNSA Enterprise Secure Network, which holds highly restricted nuclear design data, and SIPRNet, which regulates secret-level communications.
The Department of Energy (DOE) told NPR that these accounts were never accessed, but the development has raised eyebrows within national security circles.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45034082/elon-musks-doge-saves-160-billion-but-could-lead-to-billions-in-hidden-costs-for-taxpayers-warns-new-analysis-public-will-end-up-paying-for-this">Elon Musk&#8217;s DOGE Saves $160 Billion But Could Lead To Billions In Hidden Costs For Taxpayers, Warns New Analysis: &#8216;Public&#8230;Will End Up Paying For This&#8217;</a>
Why It Matters: To access these networks, officials usually require a "Q" clearance, which is the DOE's highest level of security clearance. Neither Farritor nor Ramada had this level of clearance, according to the report.
Merely being present in these directories does not enable access to classified material, but experts note that it could be a gateway to further infiltration.
Concerns about DOGE's access have been exacerbated by its increasing influence among federal agencies and an earlier <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44859945/whistleblower-alleges-doge-involved-in-major-cybersecurity-breach-at-us-labor-agency">whistleblower report</a> alleging unauthorized data access at the National Labor Relations Board.
The appearance of these accounts also contradicts assurances made by Energy Secretary Chris Wright in February <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/02/07/doge-staffers-at-department-of-energy-dont-have-access-to-nuclear-secrets-secretary-says.html">on</a> CNBC that DOGE personnel did not have access to them.
This new report comes amid rising scrutiny over DOGE's access to government agencies and their sensitive data. Earlier this month, House Democrats voiced their concerns and alleged that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44888379/elon-musks-doge-under-fire-house-democrats-say-agency-is-building-unlawful-master-database-of-sensitive-us-data">DOGE is creating a cross-agency master database</a> that might compromise privacy and national security.
DOGE has been previously linked with privacy and security concerns across other federal agencies, such as its attempts to access <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44697671/trump-administrations-push-to-access-social-security-data-faces-major-setback-as-court-dismisses-appeal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from the Social Security Administration</a>, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43768756/privacy-concerns-emerge-as-elon-musks-doge-team-seeks-access-to-taxpayer-data" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">taxpayer data</a>, and its reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44683851/elon-musks-secretive-doge-team-using-ai-and-disappearing-messages-to-monitor-federal-workers-for-anti-trump-sentiment-bypassing-records-laws-and-locking-out-agencies-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">tracking of employee communications using artificial intelligence tools.</a>

Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) has expressed his support for $500 billion in Medicaid cuts. This comes as congressional Republicans are striving to preserve the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
What Happened:&nbsp;Bacon, joined by 12 other Republicans, has closely reviewed the proposal and identified three key areas for potential spending cuts, based on estimates from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. 
These include imposing work requirements for able-bodied adults without children, removing undocumented migrants from Medicaid coverage, and requiring annual audits to ensure only eligible individuals receive Medicaid. The estimated savings from these measures are around $200 billion, $200 billion, and $100 billion, respectively, stated the Nebraska Rep. in an <a href="https://www.ketv.com/article/nebraska-rep-bacon-supports-medicaid-cuts/64627089">interview</a> with KETV.
The House of Representatives&#8217; initial budget proposal includes around $880 billion in reductions to Medicaid funding. However, Bacon clarified that he does not support cuts that would affect the quality of care provided by Medicaid or hospitals. He believes these reforms preserve the &#8220;integrity&#8221; of Medicaid for those who truly need it and protect hospitals.
Speaking about the White House, Bacon stated, &#8220;&#8230;they&#8217;re actually in rough agreement because the President&#8217;s also said he doesn&#8217;t want to cut Medicaid. So we&#8217;re sort of saying the same thing.&#8221;
Despite this, the group, Nebraska For Us, accused Bacon of changing his stance on the issue. Angie Lauritsen, the group&#8217;s director, stated,  &#8220;First, he said he opposed Medicaid cuts. Now he's open to slashing hundreds of billions of dollars from it. Which is it?"

Here&#8217;s What He Did With It</a>
Why It Matters: The proposed Medicaid cuts come amid a broader debate on federal spending. Nebraska's congressional Republicans claim the 2017 tax cuts lowered individual taxes by roughly 20%, saving the average Nebraskan around $1,600 annually. To keep these tax cuts in place, Bacon noted that it would likely require cutting between $1 trillion and $1.5 trillion from the federal budget.
Notably, President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/25/04/45064937/donald-trump-threatens-to-veto-any-gop-bill-that-touches-medicaid-or-social-security-if-it-cuts-it-i-would-not-approve">threatened to veto any bill</a>&nbsp;that trims Social Security or federal health programs. &#8220;If it cuts it, I would not approve,&#8221; stated Trump clarifying he&#8217;s all for cutting the waste and fraud on Medicaid. Meanwhile,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/04/44783620/speaker-mike-johnson-says-us-must-eliminate-people-on-medicaid-who-are-not-actually-eligible-to-be-there">House Speaker Mike Johnson</a>&nbsp;has been advocating for stricter Medicaid eligibility. 
The proposed cuts also come at a time when Nebraska is facing a financial crunch, with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44304047/mark-cuban-warns-nebraska-will-get-crushed-by-tariffs-and-medicaid-cuts-faces-a-200m-shortfall-this-year">Mark Cuban warning</a>&nbsp;that the state could face a $200 million budget shortfall due to tariffs and Medicaid cuts.

Donald Trump, dubbed the "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/which-crypto-is-up-because-of-trumps-inauguration">crypto president</a>," has completed 100 days in office since taking the oath on Jan. 20. Delivering on the pre-election promise, he established a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) Strategic Reserve, but it has not been enough to reverse the apex cryptocurrency&#8217;s decline throughout his tenure. 
What happened: Bitcoin <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43079668/bitcoin-hits-record-109000-ahead-of-trumps-inauguration-sparks-market-rally">recorded </a>its all-time high of $109,000 ahead of Trump's presidential inauguration, owing to high expectations from his administration.
Trump had promised to create a national Bitcoin reserve during the campaign trail, and his subsequent victory fueled a bullish frenzy for the coin, propelling it beyond $100,000 for the first time in history.
Trump kept his promise and passed an executive order creating a reserve that will be funded with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44183572/trump-establishes-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-funded-by-forfeited-assets-i-made-the-promise">Bitcoin owned by the federal government</a>, obtained through criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings.

The slump has been primarily driven by Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/45084679/q1-gdp-recession-bets-spike-as-trump-tariffs-risk-fuel-2020-style-economic-shock">sweeping tariff measures</a> against key trading partners, which have sparked macroeconomic uncertainty and recession fears.
Notably, Bitcoin's price hit a bottom of $76,000 earlier this month and has since rebounded sharply, although it remains 13% below its peak.
On the other hand, when former President Joe Biden began his tenure on Jan. 30, 2021, Bitcoin was trading around $36,000. Over the next 100 days, it rose to $57,750.18, reflecting a 60% surge. During this time, it also clocked an all-time high of $64,800.

Bitcoin Falls 13% In First 100 Days Of 'Crypto President' Trump — How Did It Perform Under Biden?

United Parcel Service Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) has disclosed its intentions to lay off 20,000 employees and cease operations in 73 facilities. This decision is attributed to a considerable decline in deliveries for&nbsp;Amazon.com Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), its primary client, and the ongoing repercussions of President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs.
What Happened:&nbsp;&nbsp;UPS is planning to cut 20,000 jobs and shut down 73 facilities. This move is a consequence&nbsp;of a planned reduction in&nbsp;deliveries for Amazon and the continued impact of President Trump&#8217;s tariffs. The job cuts are part of an extensive operational restructuring aimed at cost-cutting and enhancing efficiency. An Amazon spokesperson stated, &#8220;Due&nbsp;to their operational needs, UPS&nbsp;requested a reduction in volume&nbsp;and we certainly respect their&nbsp;decision,&#8221; reported Reuters.
Sean O&#8217;Brien, general president of the Teamsters, said that UPS is contractually obligated to create 30,000 jobs as part of its current national master agreement. He warned that any violation of this agreement or attempts to compromise the hard-earned jobs of Teamsters would result in a severe backlash.
In response, UPS assured its commitment to the contract. The company currently has 406,000 employees in the U.S., with more than 75% represented by unions.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;The announcement of job cuts and facility closures comes on the heels of UPS&#8217;s Q1 2025 results, which were a mixed bag. The company reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45065830/ups-delivers-mixed-bag-q1-supply-chain-weakness-offset-by-strong-domestic-and-international-growth">consolidated revenue</a> decline of 0.7% year-over-year to $21.546 billion, beating the consensus of $21.05 billion. 
The adjusted EPS was $1.49, up 4.3% YoY, above the consensus of $1.38. Despite the better-than-expected results, the company is evidently grappling with the impact of reduced Amazon deliveries and tariffs, leading to this significant operational restructuring.
Earlier this month, President Trump imposed new 145% tariffs on many Chinese goods, escalating trade tensions. While U.S. imports make up less than 2% of UPS's global volume, the China-U.S. route remains highly profitable, accounting for 11% of UPS's international revenue. UPS is seeing increased volume from Europe and Asia, but small businesses reliant on China could be hit hard. UPS also faces risks from Chinese e-commerce giants as the duty-free status ends in May. "In the worst case," a supply shock could follow stated Brian Dykes, EVP and CFO at UPS.
UPS holds a Growth rating of 38.42% and a value rating of 57.32%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UPS" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga&#8217;s Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.
