Montefiore Hospital Plans to Replace Nurses with AI
Montefiore Health System plans to lay off 12 nurses and replace them with artificial intelligence software. The nurses review insurance denials and ensure patients get needed care covered by insurance. The union says this plan is bad for workers and the economy in The Bronx. It could also harm patients if AI makes mistakes in reviewing patient charts. The nurses want Montefiore to stop the layoffs and use AI to support them instead of replacing them. The hospital's plan affects utilization review nurses who have decades of experience. They make sure patients get the care they need covered by insurance. Now the nurses and community members are fighting back against the plan. The union will continue to fight to protect nurses' jobs and patient care.

Chip Stocks Fall Due to AI Spending Doubt
Chip stocks have fallen due to doubts about AI spending. Nvidia stock has fallen about 18% from its 52-week high. The decline may be a chance to buy quality at a discount. Nvidia's revenue jumped 85% year over year to $81.6 billion. This growth may continue as management guided for second-quarter revenue of $91 billion. Nvidia trades at about 29 times earnings, which is not a demanding price for a company growing this fast. The stock's risk is the one weighing on the whole sector, if AI spending cools, Nvidia's growth could normalize quickly, and the company will look to the future for new opportunities.
