This week, electric vehicle sales are in a slump. Last year, the competition among EV buyers was fierce, with consumers paying premium prices to drive one off the lot. But despite federal tax credits aimed at making them more affordable, the red-hot EV market isn’t so hot anymore. Plus, a year into ads on Netflix, the company is reporting that 15 million monthly active users are watching, and rewards for binging your favorite shows are in the works. But first, we’ll dive into the U.K.’s AI Safety Summit at historic Bletchley Park this week. Marketplace’s Lily Jamali is joined by Joanna Stern, senior personal technology columnist at The Wall Street Journal, for her take on those stories.

With the ongoing strikes in Hollywood, the upcoming fall TV season will likely survive on rations of reruns and unscripted content. Once viewers also run out of bingeable streaming series, the streamers might find themselves in a similar position. We’ll hear what Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos had to say about it and get into why the streamers may be better prepared — for now. Plus, we’ll unpack the Biden administration’s war on hidden fees. And, the Women’s World Cup is finally here!

Here’s everything we talked about today:

• • “Netflix adds nearly 6 million paid subscribers amid password sharing crackdown” from CNN Business

• • “Biden targets hidden ‘junk fees’ from banks, cable TV, concert tickets” from Reuters

• • “SEC chair warns of AI’s potential to disrupt markets” from Axios

• • “There’s evidence that AI has downsides for the legal industry” from Marketplace

• • “Women’s World Cup likely to draw bigger crowds, revenue” from Marketplace

• • “New Zealand’s Hannah Wilkinson scores goal vs. Norway in 48′” from Fox Sports

Join us tomorrow for Economics on Tap. The YouTube livestream starts at 3:30 p.m. Pacific time, 6:30 p.m. Eastern. We’ll have news, drinks, a game and more.
