first_img The Wall Street Journal: Doomsters Long-Term Impact on Anthropic

The Wall Street Journal reported that a small group of artificial intelligence researchers is discussing how to avoid catastrophic artificial intelligence risks in a co-working space named Constellation in Berkeley, California. Sources close to the space indicated that employees from Anthropic also have office space there. The report noted that Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon resigned this month, bringing public attention in the U.S. to the notion that "uncontrolled AI development could end humanity."The report stated that individuals in the relevant AI safety circles have been concerned about this issue for over a decade. They have honed their arguments in shared houses in the Bay Area and exchanged predictions at conferences in Berkeley and the Bahamas, discussing ideas such as purchasing remote islands, stockpiling iodine tablets, or relocating to desert electromagnetic shielding bunkers. A cocktail named "Death With Dignity" appeared on the drink menu at an event in 2022, referencing an article that suggested humanity is doomed to fail.The Wall Street Journal stated that these so-called doomsayers are among the earliest employees of OpenAI and Anthropic, both of which were founded on the principle of preventing AI dangers. They continue to exert influence, with some personnel and project funding coming from networks associated with effective altruism, including the former CEO of the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried; the report noted he is currently serving a 25-year prison sentence.

On September 23, Google announced that any user with a Google account can generate 1080p HD videos for free in its browser-based video editor Google Vids, accessible at vids.new. This feature is based on the Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash model and can transform text prompts, photos, audio, or existing clips into new videos. Previously, such generative capabilities mostly required a paid subscription to use.Google has also added several editing controls that previously required paid tools: scene extension can lengthen clips while maintaining consistency in lighting, characters, and scenes; users can set precise clip durations to align with scripts or voiceovers; and old AI clips with lower resolutions can be upgraded to 1080p without needing to regenerate. Each video segment generated by this tool embeds Google DeepMind's SynthID invisible watermark, which is not visible to the naked eye but can be read by machines. Users can check whether a segment was generated by AI using the SynthID Detector.The free quota varies by account type: personal Google accounts receive a standard quota, paid AI packages can unlock more, and Workspace Business and Enterprise subscribers receive a larger generation pool and team management controls. Gemini Omni will be launched as a paid feature for Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers in May 2026, with free access previously limited to YouTube Shorts and YouTube Create.

Caixin: Poker expert Hu Zheweng has suffered three consecutive losses in the cryptocurrency market and has filed a lawsuit against Jump Trading and Chinese professor Zhang Yongfeng

According to Caixin, poker master and seasoned cryptocurrency investor Hu Zheweng made significant bets during the three waves of cryptocurrency frenzy involving ICOs, algorithmic stablecoins, and AI tokens, but faced consecutive failures. Hu Zheweng claimed to have invested in the blockchain project Stratis, achieving a return of "over 1000 times."According to disclosed information, Hu Zheweng invested approximately 80 million USD in algorithmic stablecoin TerraUSD (UST) and its sister token LUNA from May 2021 to May 2022, with the peak market value of his holdings exceeding 800 million USD, but the price of LUNA subsequently nearly dropped to zero.In addition, Hu Zheweng has filed a lawsuit in Chicago, USA against the globally renowned quantitative trading firm Jump Trading and its related companies and executives in the cryptocurrency business, seeking at least 500 million USD in damages. After experiencing Stox and Terra, Hu Zheweng has not left the cryptocurrency market; last January, he bet on a new project by a Chinese computer professor Zhang Yongfeng. Zhang Yongfeng entered the Computer Science Department of Tsinghua University in 2007 and is currently a tenured associate professor in the Computer Science Department at Rutgers University in the USA. He has been sued by Hu Zheweng on multiple charges including "securities fraud." It is reported that the tokens issued by the organization founded by Zhang Yongfeng, in which Hu Zheweng invested millions of dollars, have fallen over 99.6% from their peak in 2025.
