OpenAI may move forward with new business structure, partnership with Microsoft, regulators say
SUMMARY: OpenAI said it has reorganized its ownership structure and converted its business into a public benefit corporation. Two crucial regulators, the California and Delaware attorneys general said they would not oppose the changes. The new structure could allow the ChatGPT maker to raise money and profit more easily from its AI technology while remaining under nonprofit control. On Tuesday, the company also announced a new agreement with Microsoft, giving the tech giant a roughly 27% stake in OpenAI's for-profit corporation. For over a year, OpenAI's proposed changes have drawn scrutiny from regulators and advocates concerned about AI's societal impacts.

Isolated flight delays may spread as air traffic controllers go without pay during shutdown
SUMMARY: Air traffic controllers are missing another paycheck due to the ongoing government shutdown, raising concerns about financial stress affecting their work. A number of isolated flight delays have been reported since the shutdown began as more controllers call out sick. The Federal Aviation Administration was already short on staff before the shutdown. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and the National Air Traffic Controllers Association President Nick Daniels emphasize the pressure on controllers. Some are taking second jobs to make ends meet. The shutdown is also hindering efforts to reduce the shortage of controllers. Though pressure is mounting on Congress, Democrats and Republicans have shown little sign of being able to reach a deal to fund the government.

US government allowed and even helped US firms sell tech used for surveillance in China, AP finds
SUMMARY: Even while warning about national security and human rights abuse, the U.S. government across five Republican and Democratic administrations has repeatedly allowed and even actively helped American firms to sell technology to Chinese police, government and surveillance companies, an Associated Press investigation has found. And time after time, despite bipartisan attempts, Congress has turned a blind eye to loopholes that allow China to work around its own rules, such as cloud services, third-party resellers, and holes in sanctions passed after the Tiananmen massacre. This reluctance to act reflects the tremendous wealth and power of the tech industry, which is more visible than ever under the Trump administration.

US appeals court overturns West Virginia landmark opioid lawsuit decision
SUMMARY: A federal appeals court has overturned a landmark decision in an opioid lawsuit in West Virginia. A lower court judge had rejected attempts by an opioid-ravaged area to be compensated by U.S. drug distributors for a influx of prescription pain pills. The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia, ruled that the judge erred when he said West Virginia’s public nuisance law did not apply to the lawsuit. Cabell County and the city of Huntington had accused three major U.S. drug distributors of causing a public health crisis. Tuesday’s ruling sends the case back to U.S. District Court in Charleston for further proceedings.

A man who spent 43 years in prison before his conviction was overturned now faces deportation
SUMMARY: A Pennsylvania man whose murder conviction was overturned after he served 43 years in prison hoped to walk free this month, but instead found himself in immigration custody. Subramanyam Vedam was an infant when his family moved to the U.S. so his father could teach at Penn State University. The Trump Administration plans to act on a 1999 deportation order despite his murder conviction being overturned because Vedam also has a drug conviction from the 1980s. His lawyers say the years he wrongly spent in prison should outweigh that. They have asked the Board of Immigration Appeals to reopen the case.

No. 2 Indiana taking advantage of a strong, steady, evolving defense to chase another playoff bid
SUMMARY: It’s easy to get enamored with No. 2 Indiana’s glitzy, high-scoring offense. The gritty, increasingly stout defense has been just as impressive — maybe even better. Last Saturday, the Hoosiers set the tone with an interception return for a touchdown on the second play of the game. Two weeks earlier, they held usually high-octane Oregon to one field goal over the final 39 minutes of game time. So, as Indiana continues chasing a perfect regular season, the first Big Ten championship game berth in school history, a second straight playoff bid and a national championship, coach Curt Cignetti knows they'll need a strong, steady defense to achieve those feats.

The season is slipping away for Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders
SUMMARY: The losses and the injuries just keep mounting for the Washington Commanders. They are on a three-game losing streak as their season appears to be slipping away. With a 3-5 record at roughly the halfway mark after Monday night's loss to Kansas City, Washington already has the same number of defeats as it did while going 12-5 and making it to the NFC championship game in January. They were carried there by the dynamic quarterback-wideout duo of AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Jayden Daniels and 13-TD scorer Terry McLaurin, but they have been among the many players to sit out multiple games with injuries this season.

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson listed as full participant in practice and speaks with reporters
SUMMARY: The Baltimore Ravens listed Lamar Jackson as a full participant in practice Tuesday — and the star quarterback also spoke to reporters. It’s the clearest sign yet that his hamstring injury is indeed behind him. The Ravens play at Miami on Thursday night. Jackson has missed the past three games. Last Friday, he was listed as a full practice participant, but he was still considered questionable for the game and wasn't available to the media. He was ruled out a day later for Sunday’s game against Chicago. This time, Jackson is practicing, talking — and eyeing an important game against the Dolphins.

76ers rally in fourth, beat Washington 139-134 in overtime to remain undefeated
SUMMARY: Tyrese Maxey scored 39 points with 10 assists, and the Philadelphia 76ers stormed back with Joel Embiid on the bench, beating the Washington Wizards 139-134 in overtime to remain unbeaten. Embiid scored 25 points in a season-high 23:02, but with the 76ers managing his minutes, it was Adem Bona who turned the game around late. He blocked four shots in the fourth quarter and another in OT as Philadelphia rallied from a 16-point deficit after three. Alex Sarr scored 31 points for the Wizards, who had 110 points in the first three quarters then only 16 in the fourth.

While still managing Embiid's minutes, the unbeaten 76ers are playing inspired ball
SUMMARY: Perhaps the Philadelphia 76ers can be interesting this season — even if Joel Embiid is often limited. Tyrese Maxey scored 39 points with 10 assists, and the 76ers rallied from a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit to beat the Washington Wizards 139-134 in overtime and remain unbeaten. Embiid scored 25 points in a season-high 23:02. But with Philadelphia managing his minutes, it was Maxey and Adem Bona who turned the game around late. The 76ers improved to 4-0 — a welcome bit of positivity after they lost 58 games last season.

SUMMARY: Jake Oettinger made 24 saves recording his first shutout of the season and Tyler Seguin scored a power-play goal deflected off a Washington defenseman’s stick as the Dallas Stars beat the Capitals 1-0 on Tuesday night. Washington’s Alex Ovechkin, the NHL career leader with 899 career regular-season goals, was held without a goal for the second consecutive game.

Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty scratched from the Breeders' Cup Classic because of a fever
SUMMARY: Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes winner and Breeders' Cup Classic favorite Sovereignty has been scratched from the $7 million world championship race after catching a fever. Trainer Bill Mott announced the decision Wednesday to scratch the country's top 3-year-old horse. Sovereignty opened as a heavy 6-5 morning line favorite in the field of 10. Mott and ownership have made it clear over the past several months that they would play it safe with Sovereignty, including the call to skip the Preakness after he won the Derby and looked like a legitimate Triple Crown candidate.

Giants receiver Malik Nabers undergoes surgery to repair a torn ACL
SUMMARY: Malik Nabers had surgery to repair a torn ACL in his right knee, the New York Giants said, adding that their top receiver will begin his rehabilitation process upon his discharge from the hospital. Nabers went under the knife roughly a month after getting injured while trying to make a catch during a home game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Beyond that, he’s out for the rest of the NFL season and a timeline for when Nabers might be able to resume football activities was not immediately clear. It’s the second surgery in three days for a key Giants player after rookie running back Cam Skattebo’s to repair a dislocated right ankle.

Pastrnak and Lindholm star as the Bruins rally past the Islanders 5-2
SUMMARY: David Pastrnak had a goal and an assist to help the Boston Bruins rally for a 5-2 victory over the New York Islanders. Pastrnak, Elias Lindholm and Mikey Eyssimont scored during Boston’s second-period rally after the Bruins managed just four shots on goal in the opening period. Morgan Geekie added a power-play goal in the third and Fraser Minten had an empty-netter as Boston rebounded from a 7-2 loss at Ottawa on Monday night.

Antetokounmpo scores 37, Rollins adds 25 in Bucks' 121-111 victory over Knicks
SUMMARY: Giannis Antetokounmpo had 37 points, eight rebounds and seven assists as the Milwaukee Bucks erased a 12-point halftime deficit and beat the New York Knicks 121-111 on Tuesday. Milwaukee’s Ryan Rollins added a career-high 25 points. New York’s Jalen Brunson scored 36 points but hurt himself midway through the fourth quarter in a play that sparked Milwaukee’s winning rally. Brunson was dribbling behind the 3-point line near Milwaukee’s bench when he fell backward in clear pain and lost the ball in a play that started an 8-0 Milwaukee run. Brunson remained in the game but couldn't slow the Bucks' momentum.

Antetokounmpo says this meeting with the Knicks meant more, though not because of trade speculation
SUMMARY: Giannis Antetokounmpo acknowledged the Milwaukee Bucks’ first meeting of the season with the New York Knicks meant more to him than a typical regular-season game. But the two-time MVP said it had nothing to do with a preseason report suggesting New York was Antetokounmpo’s preferred destination if he were to ever request a trade from the Bucks. He said it instead was about changing the Bucks’ recent history of frustration in this series. Antetokounmpo had 37 points, eight rebounds and seven assists in the Bucks' 121-111 victory over the Knicks on Tuesday.

The Steelers defense thought it could do 'historic things' in 2025, but it hasn't worked out so far
SUMMARY: Mike Tomlin went on a local radio station over the summer and said he believed the Pittsburgh Steelers defense could do “historic things” in 2025. It’s on a path to do just that, just not in the way the NFL’s longest-tenured head coach or anyone else inside the organization imagined. Yet even after getting shredded for a second consecutive week and with the Steelers 30th in the NFL in yards against, Tomlin does not see any need for panic. So don’t expect massive changes to the coaching staff or the roster as Pittsburgh tries to find a way forward on Sunday against Indianapolis.

No. 1 Ohio State is rested twice over and preparing for 5-game stretch to close the regular season
SUMMARY: Top-ranked Ohio State is rested twice over and preparing to finish the regular season with a five-game stretch. The Buckeyes’ open weekends essentially broke the season into thirds for coach Ryan Day and his staff. They focused extensive energy on the season-opening visit from Texas, faced Grambling State and Ohio University, and then got a break. After facing Washington, Minnesota, Illinois and Wisconsin, Ohio State got another day off last weekend. Now it’s Penn State, Purdue, UCLA, Rutgers and 21st-ranked rival Michigan. Day’s plan is for this final stretch to lead to a defense of last year’s national championship in the College Football Playoff.

Steelers acquire safety Kyle Dugger from the Patriots with veteran DeShon Elliott out indefinitely
SUMMARY: The Pittsburgh Steelers have acquired safety Kyle Dugger from New England to bolster their secondary with starter DeShon Elliott out indefinitely with a knee injury.

Marco Andretti retires from racing, ending an era for the Andretti family at the Indy 500
SUMMARY: Marco Andretti has announced his retirement from racing, marking the end of an era for the Andretti family at the Indianapolis 500. The 38-year-old grandson of Mario Andretti shared on social media that he will not compete in next year's race. Instead, he plans to focus on his daughter, business ventures, and a memoir titled “Defending the Dynasty.” This decision means the Indy 500 will not feature an Andretti for the first time since 2005. Reflecting on his career, Marco expressed pride in his achievements, especially at the Indy 500, despite the pressure of his family legacy.
