    SpaceX can reportedly block employees from selling shares over “dishonesty.”

    Leaked documents viewed by TechCrunch say SpaceX can prevent former or current employees from selling shares during a tender offer if they engaged in “an act of dishonesty against the company” or violated policies.

    Since SpaceX is a private company, this could prevent employees from selling their shares until SpaceX goes public — which may not even happen. SpaceX also reserves the right to buy back vested shares six months after an employee leaves the company, TechCrunch reports.

    TikTok faces a $10.9 million fine in Italy over child safety concerns.

    Italian regulators imposed the fine after finding that TikTok “failed to implement appropriate mechanisms” to monitor content on its platform, “particularly those that may threaten the safety of minors.”

    It cites the “French scar” challenge as one of the “potentially dangerous” types of content disseminated by TikTok’s algorithm, which involves users pinching their face so hard it leaves a mark.

    Apple has acquired an AI startup called DarwinAI.

    That’s according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, who says Apple acquired the Canadian firm earlier this year. DarwinAI makes AI systems that visually inspect components for manufacturers, but, as pointed out by Bloomberg, the startup also aims to “make neural network models smaller and faster.”

    This tech might prove useful to Apple, which is working to optimize large language models for phones.
