| Should you use AI to file your taxes? Experts warn it can lead to costly mistakes. Americans are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT and Claude to help prepare their tax returns, but experts warn the technology can deliver outdated or inaccurate guidance, raising the risk of costly mistakes. About 26% of people are now using AI to file their 2025 tax returns during the current tax season, up from 11% in the prior year, according to polling from Adobe. In a post on X, Elon Musk said that his Grok AI chatbot "can help with your taxes." He was responding to another X user who said in a post that the tool helped boost a tax refund by $1,400. But tax experts warn that Americans may be putting themselves at risk by relying on AI, as chatbots...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| How Olivia Munn's "no symptoms" breast cancer diagnosis sparked a lifesaving awareness mission Olivia Munn is known for commanding the screen, but in recent years, she's taken on a more personal role: cancer survivor, advocate, and mother. In April 2023, Olivia Munn discovered she had Stage 1 breast cancer after taking the Lifetime Risk Assessment test, a free online Q&A that takes minutes to provide a score estimating your risk of developing breast cancer in your lifetime. Anything above 20% is considered high risk. Munn's risk score was x37.3%. "No symptoms. And I had a clear mammogram and a clear ultrasound," Munn told "CBS Sunday Morning." Once she learned the diagnosis, she fought back with everything she had. She got a double...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Michael Jordan on NASCAR, life after basketball and the one title he won't claim Michael Jordan is bringing his championship mindset to NASCAR, saying he's "cursed with this competitive gene" that keeps him chasing victories — and change. Jordan, co-founder of the NASCAR team 23XI Racing, told Gayle King that his passion for the sport traces back to his late father, James, a "diehard mechanic." "He used to work on all the neighborhood cars… he would fix our cars. We would never send our car to the service. He would figure out a way to fix it. So I think it gravitated into his love for cars. And he likes driving fast. My mom likes driving fast," Jordan told King after the pair met up at the Phoenix Raceway for a "CBS Sunday Morning"...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Horatio Nelson and the British fleet, a Danish warship and part of a sailor's jaw have been discovered on the seabed of Copenhagen Harbor by marine archaeologists. Working in thick sediment and almost zero visibility 50 feet beneath the waves, divers are in a race against time to unearth the 19th-century wreck of the Dannebroge before it becomes a construction site in a new housing district being built off the Danish coast.

| Starbucks offers $1,200 bonuses to baristas with top customer service ratings Starbucks is offering its baristas up to $1,200 in annual bonuses and shifting to weekly pay as the coffee chain pushes to boost sales and improve customer service. The company said Thursday that the bonuses are tied to whether individual Starbucks outlets meet customer service and sales goals. Moving to weekly pay should also give workers more financial flexibility, it added. Under CEO Brian Niccol, Starbucks has sought to energize growth and boost profits after several consecutive quarters of flat or declining sales. The most recent quarter showed improvement, with same-store sales rising 4%. Analysts attribute those results to Niccol's "Back to Starbucks" turnaround plan, which includes...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Will the Iran war slow U.S. hiring? Economists say risks are rising. The Iran war is adding fresh pressure to a slowing U.S. labor market, with at least one major employer already freezing hiring plans. Consumer goods giant Unilever, which owns brands such as Dove and Vaseline, told CBS News on Tuesday that it's hitting the brakes on hiring amid an unstable economic backdrop. In a memo obtained by Reuters, a Unilever executive pointed to "macroeconomic and geopolitical realities, especially in the Middle East conflict" as the reason for the company's three-month hiring freeze. Even before the Iran war began, the U.S. hiring rate had slowed, with the February Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey hitting its lowest level since 2020.

| How high could oil and gas prices go if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed? President Trump's comments to reporters on Tuesday that he expects the U.S. to end its war with Iran in two or three weeks is buoying investors by easing global oil prices and boosting stocks. Yet such optimism is certain to fade quickly unless Iran agrees to reopen the Strait of Hormuz soon, according to economists, who warn that crude prices could continue to soar even if the Trump administration moves to wind down military operations in the region. "The scary scenarios are, unfortunately, extremely plausible. It's not at all hard to tell a $150 [per barrel] story, and it's not crazy to go to $200," Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman told CBS News.

| Americans say this is their savings "magic number" to retire comfortably Americans' "magic number" for the savings they need to retire with a measure of financial comfort is $1.46 million, according to new research from Northwestern Mutual. That figure, based on a survey of 4,375 people who were asked how much money they think they need in retirement, is up from $1.26 million in 2025. John Roberts, chief field officer at the financial planning firm, said the increase reflects ongoing consumer concerns about inflation, with elevated prices in recent years straining household budgets and making it harder for people to save. The poll was fielded before the Iran war, which has only heightened such concerns as fuel prices rise. Respondents also worried that...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Why is Trump talking about action on Cuba and what could that look like? President Trump continues to dangle potential military action against Cuba, appearing to be emboldened by his administration's interventions in Venezuela and Iran. After the U.S. military captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in January, Mr. Trump warned that he had his sights set on Cuba. Standing alongside Mr. Trump at a news conference about the raid on Jan. 3, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the regime should be "concerned." Since Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was assassinated in U.S. strikes on Iran in February, Mr. Trump's rhetoric against Cuba has escalated. On March 16, Mr. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that he believed he would have "the honor of taking...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

In an interview with CBS News' Ed O'Keefe on Friday, Moore, a Democrat, likened the ongoing war with Iran to the war in Afghanistan, where the governor served as a member of the Army's 82nd Airborne Division. "I feel like we are lurching into another one of these forever wars that we're asking the American people to pay for… but the president of the United States and the commander-in-chief has still yet to articulate what exactly it is that we're doing," he...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Mortgage rates are surging, foiling homebuyers' best-laid plans Surging mortgage rates are threatening to wash out the spring homebuying season. The rate on a conventional 30-year home loan rose to 6.46%, its highest level since September 2025, Freddie Mac said Thursday. Borrowing costs have jumped sharply in recent weeks after having dipped below 6% in late February. The Iran war is exerting further upward pressure on rates by stoking inflation concerns and driving up government bond yields, according to economists. Mortgage rates tend to track the 10-year Treasury bond. For aspiring homeowners, the upsurge in borrowing costs is a major headache. "Before this war, it was like, it could be a good buyer's time now," said Rachel Marks, a 41-year-old...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

"Things were already challenging for a lot of Americans on pretty tight budgets, and this certainly doesn't help." A swift end to the war — specifically, reopening the Strait of Hormuz to facilitate oil flows and other ship traffic traversing the Persian Gulf — could help soften the blow for U.S. consumers.

Everywhere you turn, you may think you're gazing up at paintings. But almost all of them are mosaics.

| The upper middle class is now the largest income group in the U.S., study finds The U.S. middle class is shrinking, but not because more Americans are poorer. Instead, more households are climbing into the echelons of the upper middle class due to income gains in recent decades, according to research from the nonpartisan American Enterprise Institute. About 31% of U.S. households earn enough to be considered upper middle class, a roughly threefold increase since 1979, making it the nation's largest economic group, the research found. Meanwhile, the share of Americans in the "core" and "low" middle class segments has declined over that time, primarily because more households in those income groups have jumped ahead economically, AEI found.

| Kanye West blocked from entering U.K. after criticism over past antisemitic remarks Kanye West attends the Grammy Awards at Crypto.com Arena on Feb. 2, 2025, in Los Angeles. Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic The rapper formerly known as Kanye West was barred Tuesday from entering the U.K., where he was scheduled to headline the Wireless Festival in July, after a backlash over Ye's history of antisemitic remarks. Festival organizers canceled the three-day outdoor event as a result of the travel ban and said those who had bought tickets would get refunds. Ye had been granted an electronic travel authorization which has now been withdrawn on the grounds that his presence in the U.K. would not be "conducive to the public good," CBS News partner network BBC News...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| AI will affect more than half of all U.S. jobs, analysis finds Artificial intelligence will dramatically change the nature of work, but stop short of replacing most employees, according to a recent analysis. Over the next three years, AI will "reshape" between 50% and 55% of U.S. jobs, Boston Consulting Group researchers estimated. "What people do in these jobs will be different, even if the job is still there," BCG managing director and senior partner Matthew Kropp told CBS News. At the same time, many jobs will be lost. BCG projects that 10% to 15% of U.S. jobs could be replaced by AI over the next five years. "There's almost a knee-jerk reaction — we'll cut jobs and have layoffs.

| Raising a child now costs over $300,000 in the U.S., study finds. Raising a child comes with a long list of expenses, from child care to additional groceries. But how much does that add up to over 18 years? A new estimate from LendingTree puts the price tag at $303,418 for 2026, or an average of $16,857 per year. It's the first time the figure has topped $300,000 since LendingTree began the analysis in 2023 and is up about 2% from a year earlier. The calculation is based on the typical expenses for a couple earning the U.S. median family income, about $100,000, while accounting for offsets from tax incentives. Because the analysis ends when a child turns 18, it does not include the cost of college, another major expense for...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

It was a stunning move that CBS Sports' Jack Maloney rightfully graded an "F" for the Sky front office.

It was the worst of his career by a hefty margin. In his second start, last Wednesday in Cincinnati, he was adequate, but not all the way back to the dominant Skenes we've come to know.

Although an eleventh-hour truce between the U.S. and Iran immediately eased tensions between the warring countries, it could take some time for Americans to see relief from the soaring fuel costs that have pushed gasoline prices to their highest level in years, energy experts and economists said. Patrick De Haan, a petroleum expert at GasBuddy, said prices at the pump could start dropping as soon as this weekend, although the decline could initially amount to only a few cents per gallon. "If the situation holds and it doesn't worsen, the national average probably has enough room to make a run at falling back below the $4 gallon mark," he said.

The Detroit Pistons star has been sidelined since March 17 because of a collapsed lung.

| Beef, that all-American food, is getting harder for Americans to afford While the cost of other food staples, like eggs, has sunk in the last year, ground beef prices remain searingly high. Data from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis shows that ground beef prices were $6.70 a pound in March, up nearly 16% from a year ago. Beef steaks, which were $12.73 per pound in March, are also up 16% from a year ago. In 2021, by comparison, ground beef cost as little as $3.96 a pound, while a decade ago it averaged $3.75. Unfortunately for beef lovers, those prices aren't likely to recede anytime soon. "There is nothing to suggest any relief from high beef prices," said Derrell Peel, a professor of agricultural economics at Oklahoma State...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Fighting for health care claim approvals Marketing executive Mathew Evins lived with chronic back pain for eight agonizing years. He described it as "excruciating." By 2024, he had trouble just walking. He had exhausted non-invasive treatment, and his doctors agreed he needed surgery. His insurance company had other ideas: "They went back to my surgeon and said, 'Your patient needs another six weeks of physical therapy,'" Evins said. So, Evins reluctantly complied, for six more pain-filled weeks. And even after that, his insurance denied coverage again … and again. "Emotionally, it's like a roller coaster," he said. "Physically, I just wanted relief." But no relief came. Seven months went by. His condition deteriorated. "Everybody I saw said,...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Most Americans say they pay too much in taxes. Here's what the data shows. As the April 15 tax filing deadline nears, most Americans say they believe they are paying more than their fair share — a sentiment that is strongest among the nation's top earners, according to recent polling from the Pew Research Center. That belief has become more widespread in recent years, despite new tax cuts for everyone from seniors to tipped workers, Pew found. Many Americans are also getting bigger refunds in 2026, with the typical refund up about 11% compared with a year earlier, IRS data shows. The bigger refunds reflect new tax breaks under the "big, beautiful bill" enacted in 2025.

But motorists shouldn't bank on fuel costs returning to where they were just before the Iran war anytime soon, according to experts. Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, doesn't expect gas prices to drop below $3 this year absent a major economic shock, such as a recession. "Under the most optimistic scenarios, I would expect gas prices to settle closer to $3.50 by year's end," he told CBS News in an email.
