Tesla Caps Employee AI Tool Spending at $200 per Week From July 6

Tesla has notified employees via an internal memo that it will cap each worker's spending on AI tools at $200 per week, taking effect July 6, 2026. Spending above the cap requires manager sign-off, while beta versions of xAI products (such as Grok) are excluded from the limit. The move was reported by The Information and relayed by outlets including Electrek, with the original report behind a paywall.
