Ukraine said limits on the speed of its SpaceX Starlink terminal connections had been lifted in overnight testing, a move that may ease the latest tensions between Kyiv and Washington. The defense ministry said Starshield was again working at speeds above 400 kilometers per hour after having been limited to about 161 km in recent days.

Also this weekend, the founder of Linx Dating has seen demand for her services explode due to the wealth created by the artificial intelligence boom, with clients willing to spend heavily to solve a problem that dating apps haven’t. Fees start at $75,000 and can reach more than $500,000 for VIP service, with pricing largely based on duration of membership, complexity of the search and number of introductions.

On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts David Gura, Christina Ruffini, and Lisa Mateo speak with:

- Evan Gershkovich, Foreign Correspondent at the Wall Street Journal, on his book “This Cursed Beautiful Land,” documenting his 2023 arrest on false espionage charges and 16 months in a Russian prison.

- Johnny C. Taylor Jr, President & CEO of SHRM, on how employers and workers can navigate open enrollment, AI-driven job disruption, and growing generational divides in the workplace.

- Amy Andersen, Founder & CEO of Linx Dating, on the newly wealthy AI professionals that are fueling demand for high-end matchmaking services.

Plus, Christina, David, and Lisa play Pointed: The News Quiz for Risk Takers.
