President Biden's administration is calling on tech companies to address the rise in nonconsensual AI-generated explicit images, particularly targeting women and minors, by voluntarily working to disrupt monetization and remove such content from online platforms. The bankruptcy of banking-as-a-service fintech Synapse has had a significant impact on the fintech industry, affecting various startups and consumers, underscoring the risks faced by such companies.
