When a company pushes false claims about using artificial intelligence in its  business, that’s known informally as “AI washing.” It can feel like everybody's doing it, but the Securities and Exchange Commission is cracking down on the practice. Plus, is the government's communication with social media companies persuasion or coercion? The Supreme Court heard arguments this week in yet another case involving online speech. But first, the Department of Justice on Thursday announced that it's bringing antitrust charges against Apple. Marketplace's Lily Jamali spoke with Reuters Breakingviews columnist Anita Ramaswamy about all of these stories for this week's episode of Marketplace Tech's Bytes: Week in Review.

On today’s Tech Bytes, our review of the week’s biggest headlines, Meta strikes a preliminary deal with Chinese videogame maker Tencent, giving the company a chance to return to China 14 years after Facebook was banned there. We also talk about the ransomware attack on a major Chinese bank, and how the Biden administration thinks American companies should respond to cyber extortion.

The world's richest man, Elon Musk, has a new pet project. He is reinventing, and possibly destroying, the site formerly known as Twitter. Now known simply as X, the iconic blue bird logo is no more. But Musk's rebrand isn't purely for aesthetics. It's the beginning of the billionaire's vision to create a ubiquitous ‘everything app' of the future.  Could this ambitious plan to centralise communication, shopping, banking and social media be brazen enough to work? Or will x.com be an expensive mistake?  Today, Reuters financial journalist and long-time watcher of Elon Musk's business empire, Antony Currie, on Elon's plan to disrupt the global financial system.  Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Financial journalist and editor at Reuters Breakingviews, Antony Currie.

On this episode, financial historian Edward Chancellor joins Nate to give a meta-history of interest rates and human societies. With recent news of global financial turmoil in response to rising interest rates, taking a look at our history could help us interpret our present and plan for the future. How deeply entangled is this financial predicament that we've gotten ourselves into? Can we learn from the past to reshape a more stable monetary policy in the future, or are inflating financial bubbles (and popping them) simply in our human nature? About Edward Chancellor: Edward Chancellor is a financial historian, journalist, and investment strategist. He is the author of Devil Take Hindmost: A History of Financial Speculation and his latest book, The Price of Time, where he explains the story of capitalism is really the story of interest: the price that individuals, companies and nations pay to borrow money. He is currently a columnist for Reuters Breakingviews and a contributor to the Wall Street Journal, MoneyWeek, the New York Review of Books and Financial Times.  For Show Notes and More visit: https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/67-edward-chancellor To watch this video episode on Youtube → https://youtu.be/q5PWaYw6h5k

Debates have raged for years of whether and to what extent Big Tech - often known as the Big Four (Amazon, Meta/Facebook, Google and Apple) - should be regulated. As Rob Cox, global editor for Reuters Breakingviews, says in this episode: “The horse has bolted on this one”. So the matter turns to what kind of regulations should be put in place and for what purpose. Will regulation only serve to shore up Big Tech interests like the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act did for Wall Street in 2010, or will it force greater accountability, transparency, and end user protection as legislation like GDPR hoped to in Europe?  Ailish Campbell, ambassador to the European Union with Global Affairs Canada and Christian Lanng, co-founder and CEO of supply chain startup Tradeshift, debated these issue as they spoke on Centre Stage at Web Summit 2021, moderated by Rob Cox.Use promo code 'TNS' for 10% off your #CollisionConf ticket now.

Thousands flee Ukraine as the Russian invasion continues as aid agencies say the southern city of Mariupol, which has seen heavy shelling preventing more from leaving, is on the verge of a humanitarian catastrophe. The BBC's Sarah Rainsford reports from the central city of Poltava where evacuees from the north eastern city of Sumy are arriving. In the UK, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the British Parliament by videolink urging Britain to do more to support his country's fight against Russia. In the US President Joe Biden announces a complete ban on the import of Russian oil and gas, but imports make up only a small amount of America's oil and gas supply, so will it make a difference? We ask Stuart Glickman, an energy analyst at CFRA Research in New York. At the same time, the EU has published a plan to dramatically reduce its reliance on Russian energy - is it ambitious enough? We speak to Dieter Janacek, a Green MP in the German governing coalition. While companies desert Russia as a result of its war with Ukraine some are staying - Lauren Silva Laughlin from Reuters BreakingViews tells us more. And as part of International Women's Day we hear the story of how one Ukrainian woman's professional and personal life has been turned upside down by the conflict. Throughout the programme we're joined by Colin Peacock, presenter of Media Watch on Radio New Zealand and by Luisa Kroll, executive editor at the business website Forbes in New York.

Pete Sweeney (@petesweeneypro), an opinion columnist for Reuters Breakingviews, gives us a crash course.

Ten years ago, in September 2008, Lehman Brothers failed. It marked a decisive moment in the financial crisis, one where the U.S. economy plunged into what we now know as the Great Recession. With such a momentous anniversary approaching (September 15, if you want to mark your calendar), you can expect there'll be a slew of stories that look back at what happened and where things stand. But there’s another anniversary that’s not getting as much attention. Ten years before Lehman, in 1998, the country faced another possible crisis, and at its center was another financial firm, Long-Term Capital Management. LTCM, as it was known, was one of the world's largest hedge funds. But after Russia defaulted on its debt, LTCM faced a near collapse as a result of its investments along with too much leverage (a significant reason behind the financial crisis in 2008). The New York Federal Reserve Bank stepped in and organized a bailout of LTCM with the backing of the largest banks on Wall Street. This week on Money Talking, Rob Cox, Global Editor of Reuters Breakingviews, discusses what we did — and didn't — learn from the global financial crash that nearly was, and what the lasting impacts we can see today.

This week, testimony by former FBI Director James Comey dominated the headlines. For President Trump, however, it was Infrastructure Week. He spent several days promoting his plan to rebuild the nation's roads and highways. And the key to making it happen is getting billions of dollars in private investments. But how exactly would that work? This week on Money Talking, Host Charlie Herman talks with WNYC's Andrea Bernstein and Richard Beales with Reuters Breakingviews about the President's plans and whether or not it's likely to happen.

Tuesday, the Tax Policy Center analyzed the tax plans of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton — and as the director of the Center put it, the plans are practically mirror images of one another. While Trump’s plan would cut taxes for the top 1 percent by an average of $215,000, Clinton’s would increase their taxes by about $118,000; Trump would cut taxes for business, Clinton would raise them; and over 10 years, Trump’s tax cuts would total $6.2 trillion while Clinton’s would increase taxes by $1.4 trillion. This week on Money Talking, host Charlie Herman takes a closer look at each candidate's tax proposal and how it could affect Americans with Catherine Rampell of The Washington Post and Rob Cox of Reuters BreakingViews.
