More Robots Might Mean Less Coffee, and More CBD (60-Second Video) Here are three things entrepreneurs should know today.

By Liz Webber

At the same time, they'll be more interested in CBD-infused products to alleviate "tech overload."
  • Despite two years of mocking Apple's headphone jack-less iPhone, Samsung's new Galaxy A8s smartphone will not have a headphone jack either. I guess we're all headed for a dongle and bluetooth future.
  • And Google CEO Sundar Pichai heads to Washington today for the latest Congressional grilling of a tech titan. Pichai's prepared remarks assert that Google doesn't have "political bias." He's also expected to answer questions about Google's censored Chinese search engine.
