Dinner is

rescheduled

NEW YORK (AP) — The White House Correspondents Association dinner has been rescheduled for July 24. The event was initially disrupted in April by an assassination attempt on President Donald Trump.

Weijia Jiang, president of the White House Correspondents’ Association, announced the new date and emphasized enhanced safety measures and new access procedures. Trump revealed on his Truth Social platform that the dinner would be held at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

He said he has accepted an invitation to speak, and called the rescheduling a sign of strength. Jiang highlighted the dinner’s purpose as a celebration of a free press and democracy, despite some critics questioning whether it should be held at all.

Wall Street

inches higher

NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. stock market inched to more records as winners of the artificial-intelligence boom kept driving higher.

The S&P 500 rose 0.1% Tuesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.4%, and the Nasdaq composite edged up by less than 0.1%. All three indexes set all-time highs. Marvell Technology leaped to its biggest gain ever after Nvidia’s CEO suggested it could be the next company to be worth $1 trillion.

But Alphabet weighed on the market after the parent company of Google said it’s raising $80 billion to help pay for its AI investments. Oil prices rose.

Trump signs

AI order

(AP) — President Donald Trump has signed a new executive order on oversight of artificial intelligence, less than two weeks after postponing a White House ceremony over his concerns that a similar policy could dull America’s edge on AI technology.

It was not immediately clear to what extent the order signed Tuesday differed from the one he declined to sign on May 21. The order establishes a framework to vet the national security risks of the most advanced AI systems for up to a month before their public release.

The government will be able to work with trusted partners “to promote secure innovation and strengthen the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure,” the order says.
