AI technologies (or computer programs in general) automating price setting is, on the face of it, a straightforward application of the laws of demand and supply to the context of digital platforms. However, the potential for algorithmic collusion and antitrust implications are far from straightforward.

The CDC guidelines on community risk (which effectively provides guidance on when to wear a face mask in public venues) focuses on new infection rates, hospitalization admissions, and hospital bed availability, making them reactive. The current uptick of infections with the new omicron variant, BA.2, has been slow to produce many severe cases. This means that around 90% of counties are labeled low risk, with under 1% of counties labeled high risk.
The federal transportation face mask mandate is over. A federal judge in Florida struck it down last week, citing an overreach of statutory authority by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and a violation of administrative law. All the major airlines quickly responded by dropping the mandate on their flights, leaving passengers to fend for themselves on whether to wear a face mask when traveling by air. While the ruling is being appealed by the Department of Justice, the White House encourages people to continue to wear face masks when traveling. The ruling also ended the face mask mandate on trains (like Amtrak) and public transportation, impacting millions of people each day.
