Kevin Baillie was VP, Head of Creative/Head of Studio at Eyeline Studios, Netflix’s visual effects division, when he showed up to a company retreat in January 2026. The retreat included a “Vulnerability-Trust exercise” meant to encourage team building. Baillie shared that he’d been doing ketamine therapy for clinical depression after his mother died. Two months later, he was out of a job. Netflix’s own attorney admitted the therapy had “factored into the termination,” according to a lawsuit reported by the California Post. The company’s investigation also dug up profanity and drinking, including a moment where Baillie did a headstand while…

SpaceX stock is about to get a shock that could bring it back down to earth. On Thursday, the company’s first stock “lockup” expires, meaning employees and early investors who’ve been barred from selling their shares since the IPO can finally cash out. Here’s why that matters: 912 million shares, more than double what’s currently tradable, become available all at once, according to the New York Times. Lockups exist to prevent a flood of insider selling from tanking a stock right after it goes public. Once they expire, that flood often happens anyway, and prices tend to drop. SpaceX’s stock…
Get your playlists ready. Myspace’s current owners, brothers Chris and Tim Vanderhook, say they’re bringing the platform back from the dead. They haven’t announced a launch date or what it will look like, but they confirmed the plan in a new documentary simply titled “Myspace.” It’s not the platform’s first comeback attempt. Myspace launched in 2003 and by July 2006 was the most-visited website in the US, ahead of both Google and eBay, according to Mashable. News Corp bought it and its parent company for roughly $580 million in 2005, only to sell it in 2011 for a reported $35…
Anthropic may have topped OpenAI as the world’s most valuable AI startup a few months ago, but when it comes to power users, Sam Altman’s company still has the edge. ChatGPT accounted for 88% of all known spending on AI tools by the U.S. House of Representatives between April 1, 2025 and March 31 of this year, according to a study of House disbursement records by CNBC. The analysis only looks at paid usage, so free accounts are not factored into the equation, nor is any AI usage that’s bundled with larger software contracts. But of the $113,740 spent in…
Sam Altman has some advice for parents, and it’s going about as well as you’d expect. On August 31, the Open AI CEO took to X (where he’s a frequent poster) to share an idea with his followers: “cool use case of chatgpt work i heard last night,” he wrote. “connect your family calendars and explain your kids’ interests. every morning for the drive to school, have it make a podcast that talks about one kid’s soccer game that afternoon, one kid’s upcoming birthday, some news, etc.” The tweet now has more than 11,000 likes and almost 4,500 comments, most…
Jamie Dimon has run JPMorgan Chase as CEO for 20 years, and under his leadership, it’s become the largest bank in the world by market capitalization. But Dimon’s business savvy started long before he ran JPMorgan, and even before he attended Harvard Business School. According to Dimon, his education in investing started playing a game with his father—and it was a bit tougher than Monopoly. On a recent episode of The Master Investor Podcast with Wilfred Frost, Dimon recalled how his father, a stockbroker, fostered his interest in finance by challenging him to analyze companies’ annual reports. “He would give…
Almost every conversation I have with leaders these days revolves around the topic of burnout in their teams. And I’m not talking about having a bad day or a hard week, but the real thing. You know, the kind that creeps in quietly, accumulates over years, and eventually floors you. The World Health Organization defines burnout as a syndrome caused by chronic workplace stress that hasn’t been managed well. Chronic. That word matters. Burnout isn’t a rough quarter or a string of late nights before a big deadline. It is the result of sustained, unrelenting pressure—and it has a specific shape.…
How can you change your brain chemistry, releasing hormones that will help you de-stress and even help protect your heart health? Perform small acts of kindness. It sounds odd, and possibly too good to be true, but researchers, psychologists, and many other experts all agree. Being kind to others improves your sense of well-being, flooding your system with the pleasure hormone dopamine and the mood stabilizer serotonin. It also decreases the stress hormone cortisol, which is good for your cardiac health. Any form of kindness to others can be beneficial, but an exhaustive review of 201 studies by the American Psychological Association found that small, random…
QUESTION: Marty, I wanted to tell you that your Tampa conference was amazing. You really blew the doors off conventional economics. I was especially fascinated by your explanation that making too much money at a young age caused you to lose your fear of money, which ultimately allowed you to manage trillion-dollar portfolios while others were always afraid of losing. I know your seed money came from silver coins, but you also mentioned your loss in Fidelity Trend. Looking back, did you make more money from silver or from the rare coin market? Brian P.S. I can’t wait for the…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways AI agents are becoming customers, but companies rarely disclose how much revenue they drive. Agent-driven revenue can shift overnight when foundational models retrain or change defaults. Investors need new disclosure standards to measure concentration risk in the agent economy. Public market investors are flying blind into the volatility trap of the agent economy. When a SaaS company reports 40% revenue growth, there’s no way to know if that growth comes from durable customer relationships or AI agents that could disappear with the next model update.The accounting hasn’t caught up to…
