This week in tech:

Efforts to rein in artificial intelligence, especially rogue content such as deepfake video and audio, are accelerating, both from the government and AI companies themselves. No surprise there, given that one guy got fooled into paying scammers who deepfaked his company’s executives $25 million. Yikes.

On a more positive note, somewhat, enterprise tech companies such as Arm, Confluent, Cloudflare and a raft of cybersecurity companies turned in pretty good to great earnings. But given cautious outlooks issued by some, investors are getting choosier.

And no wonder. Weaveworks, a once promising cloud-native software container management startup, actually closed down after failed acquisition attempts. You have to wonder if more aren’t coming. Meanwhile, layoffs continued from the likes of Pure Storage, DocuSign and Snap.
