"It's China really going to buy 25 million metric tons of U.S. soybeans. Next year, despite
the fact that Brazil's got more than ever to export Chinese demand, may be falling off a little bit. I don't know. It's a hot topic and a good question." "A hot topic and stressful time for farmers like Justin Sherlock. He'd rather be talking about what he's putting in the ground this spring, not geopolitics. I think most American farmers right now will tell you that we have to have faith that he gets us a deal because
“kind of the only thing we've got left is hope right now."”

"You're listening to NPR News from Washington." A federal civil trial continues today in Oakland, California, billionaire Elon Musk is suing artificial intelligence company OpenAI and its chief, Sam Altman. Musk helped start OpenAI before leaving the company nearly a decade ago. He alleges, Sam Altman has betrayed OpenAI's founding principles to help humanity. He claims Altman is instead seeking power
and wealth. Mike Isaac is a tech correspondent for the New York Times. This case really has come down to the idea of frankly which billionaire you believe is doing this the right way. On the one hand, we have Elon Musk who is no longer a part of OpenAI, but says he only wanted to build AI responsibly and was tricked into leaving the entity with Sam Altman at the helm.

since you left. And now you're suing later on because you're building a for-profit competitor to us called XAI." He spoke to NPR's morning edition.
