Recently, Netflix hit new 52-week highs, driven by a diverse mix of international titles and genres, as highlighted in its first-half 2024 engagement report. The company ended the second quarter with 277.65 million paid members, with future growth expected from international expansion, ad-supported subscribers, and live content. 
Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos recently emphasized that there&#8217;s no such <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/09/40901664/netflix-ceo-says-theres-no-such-thing-as-too-much-content-embraces-steve-jobs-cannibalizati">thing as too much content</a>, embracing a strategy of continuous innovation. This approach has seen Netflix evolve from a DVD-by-mail service to one of the largest streaming platforms globally. 
Additionally, Netflix&#8217;s recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/09/40866331/bill-gates-new-netflix-series-features-mark-cuban-voted-most-anticipated-guest-benzinga-pol">ventures include a new docuseries</a> featuring Bill Gates, which premiered on Wednesday.

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff has criticized Microsoft Corporation&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Copilot by comparing it to the infamous &#8220;Clippy&#8221; assistant, which was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/05/32607457/elon-musk-thinks-this-little-guy-could-be-leader-if-ai-ever-takes-over-he-might-actually-be">ultimately removed in 2007</a>.
What Happened: On Thursday,&nbsp;in an interview with Bloomberg&#8217;s Emily Chang at the Salesforce Dreamforce conference, Benioff said that Microsoft&#8217;s Copilot has not offered any value to customers. 
&#8220;Microsoft co-pilot is basically the new Microsoft Clippy that customers have not gotten value from it,&#8221; he said, adding, &#8221; These LLMs .. this is like we&#8217;re selling science projects to companies and they&#8217;re tired of it they have not gotten the value.&#8221;
Earlier this year in July, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella disclosed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40061358/satya-nadella-says-microsofts-copilot-drives-40-of-githubs-revenue-growth-we-are-also-enabling-anyon">Copilot has been adopted</a> by over 77,000 organizations, marking a 180% increase year-over-year.

Benioff stated that customers are tired of not receiving the value they expect, which has resulted in them turning to Salesforce&#8217;s next-generation platform, Agentforce.
According to him, the company&#8217;s newly introduced AI software offers everything that customers need to create and fine-tune an agent, making it easier for them to integrate the agent into their existing workflows.
Salesforce has&nbsp;onboarded tens of thousands of&nbsp;customers, convincing them that they don&#8217;t need to &#8220;DIY their AI,&#8221; he said, adding, &#8220;You&#8217;re going to get the best AI, the highest accuracy, the lowest hallucination rate.&#8221;

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff Slams Microsoft's Copilot, Compares It To Failed 'Clippy' Assistant: '…Like We're Selling Science Projects To Companies'

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has arrested two people suspected of stealing and laundering over $230 million in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>).
What Happened: Malone Lam and Jeandiel Serrano were taken into custody on Wednesday night, according to a press release by the U.S. Department of Justice. The duo is accused of attempting to launder thousands of pilfered Bitcoins via mixing services.
They were slated to appear in separate federal courts in California and Florida on Thursday, the Justice Department said in a statement.
The authorities unearthed a sophisticated plan wherein the alleged thieves would drain cryptocurrencies out of victims&#8217; accounts and then launder the proceeds through various mixers and exchanges using "peel chains," pass-through wallets, and virtual private networks to conceal their identities.
The laundered funds were subsequently spent on extravagances such as international travel, nightclubs, pricey accessories, and luxury automobiles.
In the current case, the culprits robbed off 4,100 Bitcoin, worth $230 million, from a victim in Washington, D.C., last month.

The theft was first reported by prominent on-chain detective ZachXBT, who, in a joint effort with security firms like CFInvestigators, zeroshadow, and the Binance Security team, helped investigators trace some of the stolen funds. 
ZachXBT added that over $9 million of the stolen assets have been frozen, and more than $500,000 have been returned to the victim.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters: This case underscores the increasing sophistication of cybercriminals and the challenges faced by law enforcement agencies in tracking and recovering stolen cryptocurrencies. 
Earlier this month, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) revealed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40799485/cryptocurrency-scams-cost-americans-5-6b-in-2023-fbi-report-shows">Americans lost a staggering $5.6 billion</a> to&nbsp;cryptocurrency-related frauds&nbsp;in 2023. 
Alarmingly, the report indicated that while cryptocurrency-related complaints accounted for only 10% of all financial fraud reports, they represented nearly half of total financial losses.

Ahead of the highly anticipated launch, Huawei Technologies&#8216; new $2,800 tri-fold smartphone, the Mate XT, has hit the market, but many eager buyers were left <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/09/40912367/huaweis-trifold-is-now-fetching-7-000-as-buyers-flip-apple-rivals-device-on-online-marketplaces-in-c">disappointed due to limited availability</a>.
What Happened: Huawei and Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) launched their latest smartphones in China on Friday. However, many Huawei fans were disappointed as the $2,800 Mate XT was only available for pre-order customers, Reuters reported.
At Huawei&#8217;s flagship store in Shenzhen, &#8220;super fans&#8221; expressed frustration after learning that only confirmed pre-orders could purchase the new tri-foldable Mate XT. A university student surnamed Ye, who had been waiting since 10 p.m. the previous night, said, &#8220;They should have made it clear we can't buy.&#8221;
Similar scenes unfolded at Huawei&#8217;s Wangfujing store in Beijing, where access to the Mate XT was also limited to pre-order customers. Reuters reported around 30 people queuing outside the Beijing store and a similar number in Shenzhen early on Friday.

Analysts had previously warned that supply chain constraints might leave many potential buyers empty-handed. Huawei executive director Richard Yu stated that sales were &#8220;better than expected&#8221; and the company was working to expand capacity. However, the exact number of phones produced or delivered on launch day remains undisclosed.
Pre-orders for the Mate XT have exceeded 6.5 million, nearly double the foldable smartphones shipped worldwide in the second quarter of this year, according to IDC. Despite the high demand, production constraints are causing significant delays.

Why It Matters: Huawei&#8217;s latest tri-fold smartphone, the Mate XT, has been generating significant buzz even before its official release. On Tuesday, it was reported that the Mate XT was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/09/40912367/huaweis-trifold-is-now-fetching-7-000-as-buyers-flip-apple-rivals-device-on-online-marketplaces-in-c">being listed for over $7,000 on online marketplaces</a>, more than double its list price, highlighting the high demand and limited availability.
The launch of the Mate XT comes amid Huawei&#8217;s ongoing efforts to challenge Apple&#8217;s dominance in the Chinese smartphone market. The Mate XT, priced at $2,800, is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40845772/huaweis-2-800-tri-fold-phone-has-the-potential-to-eat-apples-lunch-in-china-here-is-how-it-compares">significantly more expensive</a> than Apple&#8217;s iPhone 16 Pro Max, which starts at $1,199 for 256 GB storage. 
Huawei&#8217;s strategic timing for the Mate XT&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40674140/huawei-plans-to-one-up-apples-iphone-16-with-disruptive-product-launch-says-it-has-turned-science-fi">launch also plays a crucial role</a>. Huawei scheduled its product launch event on the same day as Apple&#8217;s iPhone 16 reveal, aiming to capture consumer attention and market share.
Furthermore, Huawei&#8217;s focus on using more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38723677/us-sanctioned-huawei-brags-chinas-tech-self-sufficiency-with-latest-smartphone-built-with-more-homem">components from Chinese suppliers</a>, as seen in its Pura 70 series, reflects its commitment to tech self-sufficiency. A teardown analysis revealed that the Pura 70 series incorporated more homemade parts, showcasing Huawei&#8217;s resilience amid U.S. sanctions.
