For Goldman Sachs' investment bankers, the answer may just be over the horizon. Top Goldman executives told Business Insider that the investment bank is poised to roll out a series of generative AI tools to its workforce as soon as next year. Lee, a Goldman partner, said it could take years for the consequences of this tech on the bank's workflows to be fully understood. But he is overall optimistic about how generative AI, an advanced type of machine learning, will impact its workforce. Many junior bankers spend time on tasks that can sometimes feel "relatively routine," Lee said.

FIFPRO‘An industry-wide issue’European club teams are preparing for a revamped UEFA Champions League – the most prestigious competition in European club soccer – which will see teams play at least an additional two games. Manchester City hoist the Club World Cup trophy in December 2023. Conflict between national teams and clubs over minutes could arise, star players could see the field less and league structures would have to change. Over 40% of World Cup players surveyed by Football Benchmark said that they experienced extreme or increased mental fatigue after the tournament. Instead, it’s the calendar and consultation process that need to change for those in the game.

☆ Analysis, fits for all 58 NBA Draft picks from John Hollinger and Sam Vecenie

He’s going to be a killer rebounder, monster screener and will consistently establish his position even against some of the stronger NBA players. I’m done doubting Edey, even as an NBA player. As an enormous ballhandler with serious touch and incredible vision as a passer, Topić is clearly an NBA player, even if it doesn’t all translate. Shannon is an elite athlete, but the NBA game requires more nuance, especially if he continues to be an inconsistent shooter. However, I also think he’s more than just a floor spacer on offense in spot-up situations and potentially as an off-ball scorer.

Tokyo/Hong Kong CNN —A Japanese woman and her child were among three people stabbed by a man on Monday in front of a school bus at a bus stop in eastern China, according to Japanese authorities. In Suzhou, the attack took place Monday afternoon as the mother waited to pick up her child at a bus stop near a Japanese school, according to the Japanese official. The school bus is from the Suzhou Japanese School, located less than a mile from the bus stop in an area where many Japanese nationals live, NHK said. Opened in 2005, the Suzhou Japanese School offers six-year elementary school and three-year junior high school curriculums, according to its website. Its rules state that students must be picked up by a parent or guardian from the school bus.

Read previewIn a surprise move that sent shockwaves throughout the junior Wall Street community on Monday, a series of leading private-equity firms kicked off recruiting for lucrative positions that won't start for two more years. The intense rite of passage known as "on-cycle recruiting" left some junior investment bankers scrambling to get in on a flurry of hastily arranged interviews. More than half a dozen industry sources confirmed to Business Insider that associate recruiting started on Monday evening. Last year, some candidates scored offers that surpassed $300,000 in all-in comp (including base salary and bonus), BI previously reported. One person with intimate knowledge of the recruiting process said that other firms that had yet to conduct their own interviews would likely refuse to start recruiting so early.

Hannah Maruyama says she wouldn't be nearly as happy — or successful — at work as she is now if she followed any of the career advice she was given in her teens and 20s. Teachers told her she "wouldn't get far" without going to college and getting a bachelor's degree. For a while, she thought her career options without a college degree would be limited to low-wage jobs or becoming an entrepreneur. Now on the cusp of turning 30, Maruyama is making $100,000 working in AI without a bachelor's degree. The 29-year-old says she landed her "dream job" as the head of operations at Neo License, a startup that builds AI software, in 2021 by ignoring one common piece of career advice: don't apply for a job if you meet almost none of the requirements.

CNN —Vladmir Putin’s first visit to North Korea in nearly a quarter of a century has been intensely scrutinized around the world. If this is a collective defense pact, does Russia’s nuclear deterrent now extend to North Korea’s and vice versa? “But definitely I would say this clause is very alarming.”Russia's President Vladimir Putin was given a rapturous welcome in Pyongyang. “The West admits terrible concern around Putin’s visit to North Korea” read the headline in Moskovsky Komsomolets, a national daily newspaper Tuesday. Russia also needs weapons to keep up its strategy of exhausting and destroying Ukraine into surrender.

☆ Bryson DeChambeau: How US golfer reinvented himself – with a little help from YouTube

There was a widely-held perception that the golfer was a highly-strung, uber-competitor, whose desire to win often grated on his rivals. DeChambeau called his bunker effort “possibly my best golf shot of my entire life.”DeChambeau 2:0 is the result of a “lot of personal growth,” according to the golfer. YouTube has really helped me accomplish some of that,” DeChambeau told reporters afterwards. It’s such an awesome, awesome platform for me to show who I truly am.”DeChambeau’s YouTube channel currently has over 700,000 subscribers. “All day,” DeChambeau told CNN’s Patrick Snell when asked whether he felt Jon’s presence with him during Sunday’s action.

☆ Opinion: European soccer’s latest racism row
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-16 | by ( Opinion Keith Magee | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +9 min

CNN —On Sunday, England will face Serbia in its first game of the Euro 2024 championship, hosted by Germany. Since then, the FA, the European football association UEFA and FIFA , the sport’s international governing body, have visibly upped their anti-racism game. One might conclude, for instance, that Monday’s court decision in Spain meting out prison sentences to three Valencia fans for hurling racial insults, is evidence of European soccer’s new, tougher line against racism. Saka knows UEFA observers will be on duty at every Euro 2024 match and will be on the lookout for racist incidents. I see it as an attempt by professionals who should know better to make a Black player carry the can for a disappointing performance by the whole team.
