Trump vs Musk
⚡️ The cryptocurrency market has experienced sharp fluctuations due to the escalation of the conflict between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, which caused a significant drop in investor sentiment.
Bitcoin, which reached the $112,000 mark, is now under pressure due to negative futures rates on exchanges. Nevertheless, the price of BTC is holding above the key psychological mark of $100,000, which raises interest in potential recovery trends reminiscent of previous cases after negative funding periods.

Following the attack on Israel and the fall of the crypto market, well-known crypto skeptic Peter Schiff stated:
💬Oil jumped 5%, S&P fell 1.5%. Investors are looking for a "safe haven" - gold is growing, but Bitcoin is being sold, and its rate is declining. How then can Bitcoin be called digital gold?

▎Trump spoke in favor of reducing the rate by 2% at once:
⏺️ He noted that he could not force Fed Chairman Jerome Powell to lower the rate, but he was convinced that it was necessary - then the government would pay less on the national debt.
⏺️ At the same time, Trump said that he recommended that Powell raise the rate if inflation accelerates again during the year.
⏺️ Now, in his opinion, there is no reason to keep the rate at such a high level.
⏺️ He also hinted that he may have to influence Powell.
Although the Fed has not yet reacted to Trump's words, a rate cut remains likely - macroeconomic data is coming out strong 😅

🤖 leading managers in the field of AI quit for fear of destroying humanity
Several top managers have left leading artificial intelligence companies for fear of being involved in the extinction of humanity.
The question of the limitless possibilities of neural networks is increasingly becoming the subject of discussion among Google, Meta and OpenAI employees.
🔊Here are some opinions about the risks:
⏺️Elon Musk - 20%
⏺️Sundar Pichai calls this probability "quite high"
⏺️Dario Amodei - 10-25%.
Some of the work of artificial intelligence is generated independently. For example, IT specialists in the field of language models sometimes do not know themselves why large systems respond to a request in this way.
Moreover, the desire of companies to create improved versions of neural networks may lead to a lack of control by specialists, because "virtual graduate students working together at superluminal speed" will not want to obey anyone.
🀄️Similar cases have been recorded in our time. Earlier, the specialists of the company Anthropic discovered the ability of the neural network to lie and blackmail users in order to protect themselves from disconnection.

"The creators of AI themselves, who admit that they don't know for sure how it actually works, see the probability that it will destroy our species as 1:10, maybe 1:5. Would you get on a plane with such chances? Would you build a plane and let others in with such chances?" — said Axios co-founders Jim Vandehay and Michael Allen.
