Today's Story Highlights

Workers' Prime Day Strike Could Pose a Problem for Amazon
Amazon workers at a Minnesota, fulfillment center plan to strike for six
hours on July 15, the first day of Amazon's Prime Day sales event. The
strike threat reportedly is linked to unsafe working conditions at
Amazon's warehouses, caused by low wages and pressure to meet shipping
demands. Union officials also want a larger portion of temporary
warehouse workers converted to full-time employees.

How to Run a Profitable Business on Amazon
Selling on Amazon can be an extremely profitable business all on its
own. Third-party sellers like small business owners and authors on
Amazon's marketplace account for 58 percent of gross merchandise volume.
This provides a huge opportunity for entrepreneurs to make a massive
profit. However, most entrepreneurs stop the process at taking a sale
rather than scaling it into something great.

The Threat of a Deepfake Fiasco
An AI technology called "deepfake" may be the next big threat we face as
a society. Consider a recent video clip of Facebook CEO Marc Zuckerberg
saying some outlandish things. You might think it is real -- but it's a
deepfake. It's his image, and it sure sounds like him, but he never
actually made that speech. "Can't be," you might think. "That has to be
Zuckerberg talking." Wrong.

5 Effective Ways to Reduce E-Commerce Churn
The subscription model forms the backbone of the revenue streams of many
SaaS companies. In fact, more than 90 percent of software providers
expected to migrate to a subscription-based business model by 2022,
according a Gartner report. Despite the higher rates of adoption,
companies often struggle with keeping subscription customers, leading to
high churn rates and lost revenue.

The Growing Menace of Weaponized Deepfakes
The U.S. House Intelligence Committee recently heard expert testimony on
the growing threat posed by "deepfakes" -- altered videos and other AI-
generated false information -- and what it could mean for the 2020
general elections, as well as the country's national security overall.
The technologies collectively known as "deepfakes" can be used to
manipulate and falsify images and videos.
