                 Yesterday, Warner Bros. Discovery had a busier day than Barbie when she entered the human world—and by the end of it, the famed studio had gone from having a deal to be acquired by Netflix to having

                  It happened faster than a Twister:
                 </strong>
                 The ending of the monthslong corporate saga came together in just a few hours. In the afternoon, WBD’s board announced that Paramount Skydance’s most recent hostile takeover offer was
                 <a class="link" style="color:#333;border-bottom:2px solid #1c7ff2;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">

                 to the deal it had previously struck with Netflix, starting a 4-day clock for the streaming giant to come up with a counteroffer. But by early in the evening, Netflix walked away instead, refusing to up its bid and making Paramount’s offer the winner.
                </p>
                <p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">

                  <span>
                   Paramount’s offer came in at $31 per share, compared to Netflix’s $27.75/share for the WBD streaming and studio assets.

                  <span>
                   The overall value of Paramount’s offer was ~$111 billion, compared with Netflix’s ~$83 billion.

                <p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
                 Explaining the decision to tell WBD to get on the plane with Paramount, Netflix’s Ted Sarandos and his co-CEO Greg Peters released a statement saying Kenough was Kenough: “This transaction was always a ‘nice to have’ at the right price, not a ‘must have’ at any price.”
                </p>
                <p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
                 Plus, Netflix can expect to receive a $2.8 billion breakup fee (covered by Paramount, per its offer to WBD).

                <p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
                 Netflix investors don’t seem bummed out. The stock jumped 10% in after-hours trading following the announcement.

                 Though Paramount is now the winning bidder, the deal will need to be cleared by antitrust regulators in the US and abroad, a process that will likely take at least several months.
                </p>
                <p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:15px;line-height:22px">
                 Still, Paramount asserted last month that its offer provided “a more certain, expedited path to completion” than Netflix’s. Both Larry Ellison, who is bankrolling the Paramount deal, and his son, David Ellison, the Paramount CEO, have personal relationships with President Trump.

                 If the deal goes through, the combined Paramount Skydance Warner Bros. Discovery will control two streaming platforms, two major news networks, and two Hollywood studios.—

While Amodei made it clear that Anthropic would like to continue working with the DOD with the safeguards in place, he also said that if the Pentagon discontinues working with it, Anthropic would “enable a smooth transition to another provider, avoiding any disruption to ongoing military planning, operations, or other critical missions.” The Pentagon did not respond to Amodei’s statement last night.—

                  Payments company Block to slash staff by 40% due to AI pivot.

                 “from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000.” The company will restructure around “smaller, highly talented teams using AI to automate more work,” according to Block CFO Amrita Ahuja. Affected staff members will receive 20 weeks of base pay, which the company expects will contribute to $450 million to $500 million in charges, primarily in the first quarter. Dorsey also said, “Within the next year, I believe the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion and make similar structural changes.” Block stock rose 24% in after-hours trading following the announcement.—

The news comes about a week after CEO Mark Zuckerberg testified in a trial in which plaintiffs accused several social media giants of knowingly making their products addictive.
