Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно отчету Axios, информированные источники подтвердили, что известный исследователь в области искусственного интеллекта, бывший сотрудник OpenAI Люк Мец (Luke Metz) присоединился к суперумной лаборатории Meta Platforms.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно данным Business Insider, основатель Scale AI и нынешний руководитель суперинтеллектуальной лаборатории Meta Ван Тао (Alexandr Wang) на мероприятии Y Combinator заявил, что ИИ значительно сократил разрыв в силах между стартапами и гигантами. Он вспомнил, что когда в 2016 году он основал Scale AI, "стартапы против гигантов были как Давид против Голиафа, им нужно было более умно находить рыночные ниши"; а с развитием технологий ИИ "сейчас это больше похоже на Голиафа против Голиафа", и если стартапы используют ИИ "самым амбициозным образом", то победить крупные компании, уже занимающие доминирующее положение, не так уж и сложно.Созданная Ван Тао компания Scale AI является одной из первых компаний по аннотированию данных, нанимающей тысячи подрядчиков по всему миру для обучения моделей крупных ИИ лабораторий. В прошлом июне Meta заключила сделку на 14,3 миллиарда долларов со Scale AI, после чего Ван Тао присоединился к Meta. Генеральный директор OpenAI Сэм Альтман на том же мероприятии также заявил, что "нет лучшего времени для стартапов, чем сейчас".

Сообщение ChainCatcher, по данным TechCrunch, стартап Spur Intelligence, занимающийся обнаружением ботов, завершил финансирование в размере 200 миллионов долларов, которое возглавила компания Insight Partners. Эта компания была основана в 2017 году, её технологии помогают предприятиям различать реальных пользователей и скрытый бот-трафик, а также выявлять ложных пользователей и угрозы.Cloudflare в прошлом месяце сообщил, что к середине 2026 года активность интернет-роботов впервые превысит активность людей. Генеральный директор Cloudflare Мэттью Принс заявил, что рост трафика от прокси-серверов значительно превысил ожидания. Spur отметила, что с увеличением анонимной инфраструктуры, такой как преступные VPN и сети жилых прокси, предприятия сталкиваются с "слепыми зонами", где "можно видеть активность, но не видеть инфраструктуру, стоящую за ней".

ChainCatcher сообщает, что, согласно Reuters, Государственное управление по делам интернета Китая в среду (15 июля) объявило, что сервис генеративного ИИ "Apple Intelligence" компании Apple успешно завершил регистрацию в Китае и получил разрешение на использование на устройствах iPhone на китайском рынке. В настоящее время официальное объявление еще не уточняет конкретную дату запуска.По словам информированных источников, ИИ-сервис Apple будет интегрирован с возможностями ИИ-моделей Baidu и Alibaba. Alibaba затем подтвердила в опубликованном заявлении, что ее большая модель "Qwen" будет интегрирована в опыт Apple Intelligence для пользователей в Китае на iOS, iPadOS, macOS и visionOS. Apple на это пока не ответила.

According to Jinshi reports, Federal Reserve official Barkin stated that some areas related to artificial intelligence are showing inflationary pressures.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on Tuesday that the rapid development and application of artificial intelligence will not lead to a global "job apocalypse," and that this technology has not taken away as many white-collar jobs as he previously feared. He stated that when OpenAI launched ChatGPT in 2022, the company's predictions about the development of technology were "basically correct," but their judgments about the social and economic impacts were "quite wrong.""I am glad that I misjudged this matter; I originally thought that by now, the elimination of junior white-collar jobs would be more severe than it actually is. Now I feel I understand better why that hasn't happened, and I am obviously relieved about it." An increasing number of global companies have announced that some positions within their organizations are being replaced by artificial intelligence. Altman noted that he realizes that despite AI playing an increasingly positive role in many industries and positions, there remains an irreplaceable "human aspect" in employment, and much of the interpersonal interaction required for many jobs will not be replaced by AI.

According to the Securities Times, the National Development and Reform Commission held a press conference today. At the meeting, Li Chao, deputy director of the Policy Research Office of the National Development and Reform Commission, stated that the commission is planning to introduce supporting documents to accelerate the implementation of artificial intelligence and further strengthen resource guarantees.At the same time, we will continue to promote central state-owned enterprises to open high-value application scenarios, creating benchmark applications for artificial intelligence across various industries, fields, and regions, and accelerating the integration of artificial intelligence into all aspects and links of business management.

The artificial intelligence startup Wispr is in financing negotiations, with a valuation of 2 billion dollars.

Artificial intelligence is driving economic growth in the United States: investments in software and IT equipment contributed +134 basis points to GDP growth in the first quarter of 2026, growing by 2.0%, marking the largest quarterly contribution in history. This means that 67% of economic growth in the previous quarter was driven by artificial intelligence.In other words, without technology investments driven by artificial intelligence, GDP growth in the first quarter would have been close to flat. This contribution is also about 10 basis points higher than the record set in 1999. Over the past five quarters, investments in software and IT equipment have averaged a contribution of +90 basis points per quarter, setting the highest contribution for any consecutive five quarters on record. The U.S. economy has become highly dependent on artificial intelligence.

According to CoinDesk, Ripple announced on Monday that it will share its internal intelligence on North Korean hackers with the cryptocurrency industry threat intelligence sharing organization Crypto ISAC to help businesses identify coordinated infiltration actions.This move comes against the backdrop of a recent shift in attack patterns faced by the cryptocurrency industry. Ripple stated, "The strongest crypto security posture is a shared posture. A threat actor who has not passed a background check at one company may submit resumes to three other companies in the same week. Without shared intelligence, each company starts from scratch."

The South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Coinone has filed a lawsuit against the penalties imposed by the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) of South Korea and has applied to the Seoul Administrative Court for a stay of execution, attempting to suspend the relevant measures before the sanctions take effect.The core content of this sanction is to restrict new users from depositing and withdrawing cryptocurrency assets to external exchanges. Previously, the FIU imposed a three-month partial business suspension and a fine of 5.2 billion won on Coinone for violating specific financial information laws.

In response to the U.S. accusations of China "stealing" intellectual property from American artificial intelligence laboratories, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiaqun stated during a regular press conference on the 24th that the U.S. claims are unfounded and are a smear against China's achievements in the development of the artificial intelligence industry. China firmly opposes this. We urge the U.S. to respect the facts, abandon prejudice, stop suppressing technology related to China, and do more to promote technological exchange and cooperation between the two countries.

Huobi HTX global advisor Sun Yuchen made a significant appearance at the HTX Genesis Hackathon opening ceremony in Hong Kong in an online format, sharing his latest insights on the application prospects of AI Agent technology in the Web3 field and the future development direction of the industry. He pointed out that AI Agent will replace traditional interaction methods and become the core driving force of the next phase of the Web3 ecosystem.He explained that past Web3 applications often came with extremely high learning thresholds and complex on-chain interactions, while the introduction of AI Agent will drive decentralized applications (DApps) to evolve from "manual operation" to "intention-driven" based on natural language. This means that AI Agents can autonomously understand user needs, automatically plan paths, and complete complex on-chain settlements such as cross-chain transactions. This paradigm shift towards intelligence and autonomy will not only greatly unleash on-chain productivity but also become a new breakthrough point to break the bottleneck of Web3 user growth and lead the industry toward true mass adoption.It is reported that the HTX Genesis Hackathon is hosted by HTX DAO and B.AI, co-hosted by TinTinLand and OpenCity, attracting numerous developer communities, investment institutions, project parties, trading platforms, and public chain ecosystems to participate.

According to The Block, the x402 Foundation, incubated by Coinbase, has announced the launch of the unified platform Agent.market, aimed at providing an "app store"-like service entry for AI robots.The platform is built on the x402 protocol and helps users and robots access hundreds of tools and services. The x402 protocol is named after the unused HTTP 402 "Payment Required" status code, allowing websites, APIs, and AI robots to request and receive instant micropayments through blockchain and traditional payment channels. The protocol is managed as an open standard by the x402 Foundation under the Linux Foundation and has the support of over 20 organizations and crypto companies, including Cloudflare, Stripe, AWS, Google, Visa, Base, Circle, and the Solana Foundation.When Agent.market goes live, it will cover seven major categories including reasoning, data, media, search, social, infrastructure, and trading, with service providers including OpenAI and Venice (reasoning); Bloomberg and CoinGecko (data); LinkedIn, X, and AgentMail (social); AWS Lambda, QuickNode, and Alechemy (infrastructure); as well as Bankr and Coinbase RAT (trading). Providers can join the marketplace without permission.Erik Reppel, the creator of the x402 protocol, stated that there are currently about 69,000 active agent robots on the protocol, which have completed over 165 million transactions with a transaction volume of 50 million dollars. He pointed out that agent commerce based on x402 is reshaping the customer acquisition activation costs for businesses, as robots can now access services at a very low setup cost without needing API keys.
