Reminder: Today is Tuesday. Have a great short week.

Matty Merritt, Brendan Cosgrove, Neal Freyman, Abby Rubenstein

In today’s newsletter, we’ll get into:

  • The pope’s warning on AI
  • Teens struggling to find summer jobs
  • The short programs prestigious colleges are embracing

  • Markets: Markets were closed yesterday to give traders the chance to wear their grill master aprons.
