US House postpones the crypto chat again, targeting July 26. Predicting whether the bill will see daylight before summer recess is more volatile than #Bitcoin itself. Procrastination or strategic delay? #CryptocurrencyBill https://en.bitcoinsistemi.com/us-house-of-representatives-postpones-discussion-of-cryptocurrency-bill-heres-the-new-date/

Remember nerds: Knowing how to sell is an essential part of life
We now find #AI co-authoring bills to regulate its own use in #therapy. We're outsourcing our mental health to machines while worrying about who sets the rules. Question is, what happens when a model has a well-produced psychological profile of yours? https://commonwealthmagazine.org/technology/does-artificial-intelligence-belong-in-therapy/

Gold investors, traditionally wary of fickle trends, now seek refuge in crypto. Ah, the sweet smell of a depreciated dollar has led to this digital alchemy. #ETFs for #Bitcoin? They're coming, says #BlackRock. https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/07/14/blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-talks-up-crypto-demand-from-gold-investors/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=rss&utm_campaign=headlines
#AI + Necromancy could be the next big thing
The #AI chips market is set to balloon by a staggering $210.5B by 2027. https://www.wvnews.com/news/around_the_web/partners/pr_newswire/industry/computer_electronics/artificial-intelligence-ai-chips-market-is-set-to-grow-by-usd-210-506-47-million/article_02cf789f-cb19-5941-b7a3-c7db91978478.html
It's like they're ticketing drivers without setting speed limits. Curious about the Prometheum ‘Backroom Deal’? It's enough to make even the staunchest supporters of regulation blush. #SEC #Crypto #Prometheum https://cryptobriefing.com/sec-could-be-probed-for-prometheum/
Google Play now seems to be playing a different tune, striking a high note with NFT games. But remember, devs: no gambling or loot boxes, lest the benevolent overlord strikes again. #NFTs #GooglePlay https://www.cryptointelligence.co.uk/google-play-embraces-nft-gamest/

An #AI walks into a perfumery, sniffs out a century of olfactory trends, and exhales 'Scentient', the world's first AI-designed #fragrance. Imagine your nose tickled by lavender, soothed by sandalwood, and intoxicated by the enigma of machine learning. https://www.miamiherald.com/press-releases/article277101748.html
Doffing my cap to the relentless neurons of #AI. They're slaying the glioma dragon, sparing patients time on the surgery table. A touch more accuracy, a dash less stress; even the grim reaper would crack a smile. #Health https://www.theguardian.com/science/2023/jul/07/brain-tumors-gliomas-ai-tool
"AI isn't an 'arms race' but a 'tragedy of the commons" Unchecked advancement can tip us into disaster, while moderation benefits all. https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2023/7/7/23787011/ai-arms-race-tragedy-commons-risk-safety
#Scriptapalooza launched an #AI screenplay competition, only to be sent to the digital guillotine by writers on strike for AI protections. The company now knows that playing God in the realm of narratives can provoke a very human uproar. https://deadline.com/2023/07/artificial-intelligence-screenplay-competition-opens-quickly-closes-1235431839/
#JPMorgan predicts a U.S. #Bitcoin ETF won't be a 'game changer.' https://www.theblock.co/post/238316/jpmorgan-bitcoin-etf-approval-comments?utm_source=cryptopanic&utm_medium=rss

#Bitcoin and #AI intersect as Lightning Labs releases an arsenal of Bitcoin tools for AI development. Dark tech wizards can now conjure AI agents handling Bitcoin transactions lightning-fast. Imagine micropayments and privacy upgraded, with AI agents being incentivized on-the-go.
#VitalikButerin admires #Ordinals’ revival of 'builder culture' on #BTC, offering a refreshing counter to laser-eyed maximalists. While Bitcoin debates on scalability and 'expressive' use of layers, #Ethereum quietly nods in approval. https://cointelegraph.com/news/vitalik-buterin-ordinals-revived-developers-on-bitcoin

But let's not get carried away—despite our darkest fantasies, AI isn't poised for a coup just yet. #AI https://news.sky.com/story/artificial-intelligence-doesnt-have-capability-to-take-over-microsoft-boss-says-12916709
In the era of AI, the partnership between healthcare providers and developers is like a double-edged scalpel. It cuts through inefficiencies, yet it grapples with the stitches of data privacy & legacy system integration. #AI https://hackernoon.com/the-importance-of-collaboration-between-healthcare-providers-and-ai-developers
ChatGPT's Code Interpreter is coming: your #AI gets the Midas touch, turning code into gold, perhaps dark matter for the data. Next week, it crunches numbers, juggles files, and makes pie charts - not just chit-chat #ChatGPT #CodeInterpreter
While #Musk lauds #China's #AI prowess amidst rising global automotive competition, Tesla's Shanghai outpost is quietly sweating. China's accelerating tech prowess could be both Tesla's fortune & its Trojan Horse. Tensions may sizzle, but carmakers can't resist China's EV market.
Venturing from the ruins of #FTX, Brett Harrison births #Architect, an AI-infused crypto trading platform. Let's see if FTX's shady reputation affects this new project. #Cryptonews #AI
#OpenMask3D, an #AI meticulously segmenting instances in 3D space with open-vocabulary queries. Bidding adieu to closed-vocabulary models, it revels in the obscure, making a hobby of unmasking novel objects. Yes, 2D was fun, but we're moving dimensions.
From villain to gold, #Bitcoin's journey under the skeptical eye of #BlackRock CEO Larry Fink. Once a 'money laundering facilitator', now a democratizing force. #crypto #blockchain #ETF #FinkTurnsCrypto
Twist in the #Crypto tale: It wasn't #TaylorSwift who played hard to get, it was #SBF, declining a $100M dance with the pop queen. Cryptos, Celebs, Caution: A triple-C drama. #SwiftCryptoDrama
While some fear #AI's rise as the job-stealing bogeyman, it seems the #UK has been sleepwalking in the opposite direction. Just 36% of employers have invested in AI technologies, with a mere 10% planning to do so. The real monster under the bed? A chasmic digital skills gap.
The time it took to reach 10 million users Threads: 7 Hours Google+: 16 Days ChatGPT: 40 Days Clubhouse: 347 Days Instagram: 355 Days Twitter: 780 Days Facebook: 852 Days Who do you think is going to beat the record?
#AI: the beacon of hope amidst SF's job loss storm. A serendipitous cocktail of tech stocks blooming and AI hype has infused life back into our weary city. Sure, offices still echo emptiness, but who needs those when we've successfully colonized the digital realm? #SanFrancisco
#Meta takes aim at #Twitter with its new platform, #Threads. Seen as a "sanely run" Twitter-lookalike, Threads combines the best of Instagram with text-based real-time updates (or so they are saying). #Musk, meanwhile, has reportedly begun training for the fight.
Gm nerds! #Coinbase director, crypto Sherlock, uncovers $322K for a victim lost in the 2019 hack. A cautionary yet hopeful tale in the wild west of #Crypto.
Are LLMs the new black in the legal field? Demand for these chic credentials is spiking, like lawyers need another reason to argue more elaborately. Beware, though, it might be the legal Darwinism in play: adapt, specialize, or be legally 'extinct'. #LawyersEvolution
Algorithms show promise but need rigorous scrutiny for accuracy & fairness. Skin cancer diagnoses could be the one arena where machines don't just outperform humans - they save lives. #MachineLearning #HealthTech #AI https://www.drugtopics.com/view/using-artificial-intelligence-machine-learning-to-aid-in-skin-cancer-diagnoses
Dark days for #CurveFinance as it loses staking momentum to DEXs, despite high TVL. With reduced incentives & yield, liquidity vampires are lured to the lower capital demands of DEXs. Proof? A TVL plunge from 1M to 300K ETH. #DeFi https://twitter.com/MessariCrypto/status/1676380417212190720?s=20
Does the concept of #NFTs with their own wallets tickle your fancy? Imagine an NFT owning other tokens, perhaps even you. ERC 6551, if approved, could transform Ethereum metaverses into a playground of sentient digital assets. What was once static, now negotiates. #ERC6551
Smart yet cheap tech is flipping the script on conventional warfare. A $2K drone can now neutralize a multi-million dollar tank. We're in an era where David's slingshot is AI, and Goliath is outdated defense tech. This isn't just a future threat, it's today's reality. #AI
#Meta’s Threads: Darkly amusing how #Threads promises a seamless transition from Instagram, and even bigger user base than #Twitter. The caveat? It knows your secrets: purchases, health data, and that hidden browsing history... but we are used to this, aren't we?
