The Rise And Stall Of Wells Fargo
U.S. regulators say Wells Fargo has repeatedly misled and overcharged its customers. These allegations have rocked the 170-year-old bank, which still stands as one of the largest lenders in the U.S. The Federal Reserve continues to uphold an unprecedented cap on the bank’s assets in response to the government’s findings. These ongoing legal issues have weighed on the bank in recent years, sending numerous employees and executives out the door.
Reports of fraudulent activity in Wells Fargo’s sales department first surfaced in 2013. The bank opened at least 3.5 million fraudulent accounts for unwitting customers, according to researchers at the Harvard Business School. This and other issues have led the government to fine the bank repeatedly.
Experts said the government has wide authority to limit Wells Fargo, given the reputation senior management has earned for imposing demanding business goals on its workforce. These lofty goals may have led employees to engage in deceitful and at times allegedly illegal behavior.
In a statement to CNBC, Wells Fargo said the bank is revising its management, risk and control frameworks while changing the company’s culture and policies. “They said, “there’s more work that we must do to rebuild trust, and we are committed to doing that work.”

Tesla began rolling out xAI’s Grok AI chatbot in its cars in July 2025. It’s still in beta mode. Tesla is not the only automaker adding AI assistants to vehicles. Volvo, Rivian, Mercedes, BMW and others are all integrating AI into their cars even though the tech is still in its infancy. CNBC’s Rob Ferris takes a ride with attorney and Tesla Model Y owner Mike Nelson in New York City to see how he uses Grok and to find out how it integrates into Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (Supervised).

We Tried xAI’s Grok Chatbot In A Tesla — Is It A Dangerous Distraction?

As Hollywood bleeds jobs and productions flee Los Angeles, a new hybrid studio called Innovative Dreams is betting AI can reverse the tide. Backed by Amazon Web Services and AI company Luma, the company combines the LED backdrops of virtual production with AI tools across the entire pipeline, preserving actor performances and traditional filmmaking techniques while dramatically cutting costs and timelines. The first project to use the technology, The Old Stories: Moses, a three-part series starring Ben Kingsley, shot over 40 locations in a single week on an LA soundstage, a job that would have taken a traditional production over a month. But as AI reshapes filmmaking, questions remain about whether it will create jobs, or quietly eliminate them. CNBC’s Julia Boorstin explores whether this new wave of AI-powered production could become a defining force in the future of Hollywood.
