The company stated that the service will begin on Monday and will be rolled out in phases, initially deploying dozens of vehicles and planning to expand to hundreds in the future. Waymo indicated that the Las Vegas robotaxi will not initially have highway access; airport transfers and highway services will be added in later phases.

Senators are reportedly discussing whether to grant the US Secretary of Commerce the power to require AI developers to demonstrate they have taken reasonable steps to prevent harm, the so-called "duty of care." They indicated the Secretary of Commerce might also be granted the power to send government inspectors to test companies products. It is currently unclear what measures will be considered "reasonable." The bill is still under discussion, and even if Congress passes it, its eventual enactment as law remains highly uncertain.

New FTX chief says bankrupt crypto exchange could restart

According to Chief Executive Officer John Ray, the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX is considering ways to resurrect its operations. He made the announcement to the Wall Street Journal on Thursday.


According to Ray, who took over the company's leadership in November, a task group has been established to look at reviving FTX.com, the organization's primary international exchange.


The CEO also said in an interview with the Journal that he would research if resurrecting FTX's international exchange would generate more value for the company's clients than his team could get by simply selling the platform or liquidating its assets.


Following the news, FTT, the native token of FTX, increased by around 30%.


I'm relieved Mr. Ray is now only pledging to restart the exchange after months of blocking such attempts! Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder and former CEO of FTX, said in a tweet.


Bankman-Fried said, "I'm still waiting for him to eventually acknowledge FTX US is solvent and return clients' money.


An inquiry for comment from Reuters was not immediately answered by an attorney representing FTX.


Bankman-Fried is accused of robbing the exchange's users of billions of dollars to settle debts accrued by his cryptocurrency-focused hedge fund, Alameda Research. He's denied the allegations of fraud.


Customer money' future, however, is still unknown. In a note to creditors earlier this week, FTX said that since declaring bankruptcy in November, hackers had stolen nearly $415 million in cryptocurrency from its worldwide and American exchanges.
