Description

Apple is winding down its electric car strategy after 10 years of quiet work. Apple is also reportedly making a last effort to avert an antitrust probe. UnitedHealth, owner of the largest insurer in the U.S., is facing an antitrust probe of its own. Former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb argues that consolidation in the industry is partly a consequence of hospitals and physicians losing money on Medicare. Starbucks and Workers United are making progress. Unionized Starbucks employees will now receive the wage hikes their nonunion colleagues received in 2022. Plus, AI is coming for every industry and every workplace. Former head of HR for Goldman Sachs Edith Cooper discusses the risks of new technology and the value that human workers still offer.  Dr. Scott Gottlieb - 16:48Edith Cooper - 25:14 In this episode:Scott Gottlieb, @ScottGottliebMDJoe Kernen, @JoeSquawkAndrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkinMelissa Lee, @MelissaLeeCNBCKatie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie
