And recent data from the UK shows that only about 4% of AI startups in the country have women founders. Developing relationships with other women working in the AI space has become a vital lifeline, she said. There were plenty of women interested in building AI companies, she said.

Making it successful requires you to "multiply that by infinity," says billionaire Raising Cane's co-founder and CEO Todd Graves. Nearly three decades later, Raising Cane's has more than 800 locations worldwide and could finish this year with nearly $5 billion in sales, a spokesperson says. "I can't tell you how many 15, 16-hour days I've worked in a row," Graves, 52, tells CNBC Make It. DON'T MISS: The ultimate guide to negotiating a higher salaryAt times, Graves worked so much that his wife would bring their two kids to his office for dinner and playtime — after which he'd go back to work, he says. As such, he's still busy — but he's configured his workload to make time for family and friends anyway, he says.

The American Bankers Association is urging federal action on online financial fraud. Banks and the federal government are in a similar situation, pointing to each other to solve the problem of online financial scams. For its part, the government wants banks to take on more responsibility, and more consistently refund their customers who fall victim to online scams. According to the Federal Trade Commission, consumers reported more than $10 billion in losses last year from online scams. He also said that the government should create "financial crimes intelligence centers."

AdvertisementThe US once planned an invasion and seizure of Taiwan that would have been as big as D-Day. The CMSI study makes clear that a US invasion of Taiwan in 1945 — or a Chinese invasion today — would be difficult and risky. The objective would be to occupy southern Taiwan and the mainland Chinese port of Xiamen across the Taiwan Strait. US troops suffered 50,000 casualties in two months of hard fighting in the Okinawa invasion. "Taiwanese military officers pay close attention to history, and especially the history of island warfare, urban warfare, and amphibious warfare," said Easton.

The question for Ukraine is whether Kursk will fare better than Germany's Battle of the Bulge. AdvertisementWhen Ukraine unleashed its Kursk offensive in August, it wasn't just the Russians who were surprised. By massing forces for offensives in eastern Ukraine, this thinned out the rest of the 600-mile front line, including the Kursk region. For example, "Ukraine's military announced the 61st Mechanized Brigade would be moving to Vovchansk, a city in the northern sector of the fighting in eastern Ukraine," said TRADOC. Allied cryptographers had broken high-level German radio codes (the "Ultra" program), but German forces employed radio silence, and orders were conveyed by courier and telephone.

Both Musk’s and the user’s posts with the fake article were later marked with “Community Note” that clarified that the image was “not a real article.” The Community Note also attributed the edited image to the user and said it was “a satirical edit/photoshop of another article.” Musk did not respond to a request for comment. Forbes reported that in August, Musk reshared a post including a manipulated headline that resembled the British newspaper The Telegraph.
