AI boom puts Big Tech's transparency to the test
After years of touting ambitious climate goals, big tech companies are now facing new scrutiny over what they disclose about AI's environmental footprint. Why it matters: The AI boom is turning a handful of tech companies into defining players in the debate over electricity and water use. Their willingness to disclose these impacts is becoming almost as important as the impacts themselves. Driving the news : New environmental reports from Google , Amazon and Microsoft show emissions and water use continuing to rise as AI infrastructure expands — while revealing differences in what t…

U.S. gives Iran Saturday deadline to publicly renounce Hormuz attacks
The Trump administration is demanding that Iran issue a public statement acknowledging the Strait of Hormuz is open and committing to stop firing on commercial ships. The message has been conveyed directly and through regional mediators , three U.S. officials said in a briefing with reporters Friday. Why it matters: The administration says Iran violated the memorandum of understanding (MOU) it signed with the U.S. three weeks ago by repeatedly firing on commercial vessels in and around the strait. The attacks triggered several exchanges of fire and pushed the fragile agreement

Startup bets that investors want to trade compute like a commodity
Ornn, an Andreessen Horowitz-backed startup, raised a $33 million seed round to build a marketplace for trading the computing power that underpins today's AI boom, similar to what exists for oil traders. Why it matters: Investors increasingly want to trade compute like a commodity, betting it could make the historically expensive AI buildout more sustainable and efficient. Catch up quick: Commodity markets let companies use futures contracts to lock in prices for volatile raw materials. Think airlines locking in jet fuel prices or manufacturers hedging metals prices, which helps th…

Trump's God, guns and anticommunist Fourth of July
President Trump championed American military might, a Christian U.S. and his top legislative goal in a delayed Fourth of July speech from the National Mall, wrapping just minutes before the calendar switched to Sunday morning. The big picture: The speech caps a holiday interrupted by weather-related holdups and months of semiquincentennial commemorations — many of which centered on the president and his vision of the nation at 250 years old. Driving the news: Throughout the speech, Trump nodded to a modern-day battle against communism, a frequent element of his midterm messagin…
