ChargePoint and GM building hundreds of “ultra-fast” universal EV chargers

A cloud of uncertainty hangs over the EV world as the industry waits to see what incentives and programs the incoming Trump administration might roll back. American carmakers like Ford and GM have pulled back from their EV plans, while consumers hold off making the switch to electric as they wait for EV charging infrastructure to improve.

But in a rare bit of good news for EV owners, ChargePoint and GM are teaming up to install up to 500 fast-charging stations using ChargePoint’s “Omni Port system, which works with both Tesla and other manufacturers’ EV models (CCS or NACS ports).

Paramount+ wants to look a lot more like TikTok, leaked documents reveal

Larry Ellison’s Oracle just took a 15% stake in TikTok’s US arm. David Ellison’s Paramount streaming service could soon look a lot more like it.

According to leaked documents seen by Business Insider, Paramount+ is planning a big push into short-form, user-generated video in the vein of the addictive feeds of TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

Per Business Insider, the documents reveal that short-form videos are a top priority for the streamer in the first quarter of 2026, and executives are working on adding a personalize feed of clips to the mobile app.

The move would follow similar mobile-centric plans from Disney, which earlier this month announced that it would bring vertical video to Disney+ this year, and Netflix, which during its earnings call said it would revamp its mobile app toward vertical video feeds and expand its short-form video features.

Streamers are increasingly competing for user attention with popular apps. YouTube is regularly the most popular streaming service by time spent.
