The AI Coverage Gap: Why Your Business Insurance May Not Cover Losses From the AI Tools You Already Use

Major carriers including Chubb, Travelers, and Berkshire Hathaway have added AI exclusion endorsements (ISO's CG 40 47 and CG 40 48) to general liability and E&O policies, with over 80% of exclusion requests approved by state regulators, leaving small businesses using chatbots and AI writing tools newly exposed to uncovered claims.

Alphabet Q1 2026: Google Cloud Grows 63%, and a $37.7B Paper Gain Drives the EPS Beat

Alphabet's Q1 2026 revenue was $109.9B (+21.8% YoY) with Google Cloud accelerating to 63% growth and backlog above $460B, but the 82% jump in diluted EPS to $5.11 rests largely on a $37.7B other-income line — mostly unrealized marks on non-marketable equity securities. Backing out the $36.9B equity-securities gain leaves EPS near $2.76, roughly flat against last year's $2.81. Rebuilding the FY2022–Q1 2026 books in a public Beancount ledger shows exactly where the gain landed — non-marketable securities rose from $68.7B to $106.9B, not cash.

Amazon FY2025 Earnings: A Record $77.7B Profit — and AWS Now Generates 57% of It

AWS grew 19.7% to $128.7B and produced 57% of company operating income on 18% of revenue, while PP&E jumped $104.4B in a single year. Modeled line by line in a public Beancount ledger.
