Lyft's Big Financial Typo

Blake and David discuss the Lyft financial typo that sent its stock price soaring. They also examine how AI-powered help desks and customer service are improving efficiency by 10-20%, and look at some alternatives to the pesky 150-hour rule. Other news includes the future of commercial real estate taxes, the use of AI tools to monitor employee communications, and how the IRS plans to collect over $500 billion more in owed taxes.
