    NASA Pivots Artemis Program Toward Building Permanent Base on the Moon

    NASA is shifting the focus of its Artemis Moon program toward building a permanent base on the lunar surface. The agency said on Tuesday the change reflects a broader strategy to establish a sustained human presence on the Moon as a “foundation for an enduring lunar base and the next step toward Mars.” During a presentation at the NASA “Ignition” event in Washington, D.C., NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said the space agency is placing greater emphasis on surface operations to support techno...

    OpenAI to Shut Down Sora Video App, Derailing $1 Billion Deal with Disney

    OpenAI will shut down Sora, its AI video-generation platform that allowed users to create short videos from text prompts, as it pivots to "world simulation research to advance robotics," the company told Decrypt on Tuesday. The decision to end its standalone generative video product appears to also disrupt a planned entertainment partnership with Disney tied to the app. "As we continue to focus on our roadmap to AGI and the compute needed to deliver agentic AI capabilities, we’re making the t...

    'Fortnite' Maker Epic Games Reveals Mass Layoffs, Says AI Isn’t to Blame

    Epic Games announced on Tuesday that it will lay off more than 1,000 employees, and CEO Tim Sweeney addressed the technological elephant in the room: artificial intelligence. “Since it’s a thing now, I should note that the layoffs aren’t related to AI,” Sweeney wrote in a memo to staff that was also posted publicly. “To the extent it improves productivity, we want to have as many awesome developers developing great content and tech as we can.” Launched in 2017, the popular battle royale shooter...

According to Stop the AI Race founder and documentarian Michael Trazzi, roughly 200 protesters participated in the demonstration. Participants included researchers, academics, and members of advocacy groups such as the Machine Intelligence Research Institute, PauseAI, QuitGPT,...

    How AI Is Being Used to Clear Court Backlogs in LA

    Courts around the world are straining under growing caseloads, and a pilot program in Los Angeles is hoping to change that by testing whether AI can assist judges without offloading their judgment. The Los Angeles Superior Court is testing an AI tool called Learned Hand that summarizes filings, organizes evidence, and generates draft rulings in civil cases. The goal is to reduce time spent on administrative tasks so judges can focus on the parts of a case that require legal analysis and discret...

    Man Pleads Guilty to Using AI to Generate $8 Million in Fraudulent Streaming Music Royalties

    A North Carolina man pleaded guilty Thursday to a federal charge tied to a scheme that used artificial intelligence and automated accounts to collect more than $8 million in music streaming royalties, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. Michael Smith pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud in the Southern District of New York following a yearslong investigation. He agreed to forfeit the royalty payments and faces up to five years in prison. “Michael Smith generated thousands...

    White House AI Proposal Seeks to Override State Laws, Avoid New Regulator

    The White House on Friday released a sweeping national policy framework for artificial intelligence, outlining recommendations to Congress that would set national standards for AI while relying on existing federal agencies—rather than creating a new regulator. The proposal comes as states move ahead with their own AI laws, which the Trump administration has criticized as a burdensome “patchwork” of requirements for companies. “The Trump Administration is committed to winning the AI race to ushe...

    Telling Your Chatbot You Have a Mental Health Condition Can Change the Answer You Get

    Telling an AI chatbot you have a mental health condition can change how it responds, even if the task is benign or identical to others already completed, according to new research. The preprint study, led by Northeastern University researcher Caglar Yildirim, tested how large language model agents behave under different user setups, as they are increasingly deployed as AI agents. “Deployed systems often condition on user profiles or persistent memory, yet agent safety evaluations typically igno...

  • What Are Coin Mixers and How Do They Work?

    Coin mixers have captured the attention of both the cryptocurrency community and regulators as the battle for privacy ramps up. In 2021, the founder of coin mixer Bitcoin Fog was arrested on charges including money laundering and operating a money transmission business without a license. A year later, the U.S. Treasury Department issued sanctions against Tornado Cash, an Ethereum coin mixing service, effectively banning Americans from using it. In a reversal of its 2022 decision, the Treasury an...

    Can Bitcoin Really Do DeFi? A New Protocol Aims to Find Out

    A new protocol launching this week aims to finally bring actual decentralized finance directly onto Bitcoin’s base layer, allowing trading, token issuance, and other applications to run through standard Bitcoin transactions. According to the project’s founders, the goal is to make Bitcoin itself the home for DeFi rather than routing liquidity through sidechains, bridges, or wrapped assets. Chad Master, co-founder and chief business officer of OP_NET, told Decrypt that the team built the protoco...

    Quantum-Ready Bitcoin Prototype Debuts, but Adoption Hurdles Loom

    Bitcoin may already have the technology to survive in the nascent quantum era. The harder problem may be getting anyone to agree to use it. BTQ Technologies, a quantum computing and cryptography firm, said Thursday it has released the first working implementation of Bitcoin Improvement Proposal 360, or BIP 360, on its Bitcoin Quantum testnet. The system allows developers, miners, and researchers to test quantum-resistant Bitcoin transactions in a live environment. The company is not waiting for...

    Coalition Urges OpenAI to Scrap AI Ballot Measure Over Child Safety Concerns

    A coalition of advocacy groups is urging ChatGPT developer OpenAI to withdraw a California ballot initiative that critics say could weaken protections for children and limit legal accountability for AI companies. In a letter sent to OpenAI on Wednesday, reviewed by Decrypt, the group argues that the measure would lock in narrow child-safety protections, limit families’ ability to sue, and restrict California’s ability to strengthen AI laws in the future. The letter, signed by more than two doze...

    Forget AGI—Top AI Models Still Struggle With Math

    Artificial general intelligence, or AGI, is often described as a system that can perform across many domains the way humans do. Results released this week from the MATHVISTA benchmark test show current models still fall short of that goal. Researchers from Microsoft Research, Sahara AI, and Emory University tested capabilities central to general intelligence, mathematical reasoning grounded in visual information, including charts, graphs, and diagrams. Across 12 foundation models tested, includ...

    CFTC Clears Phantom to Connect Users to Regulated Derivatives Markets

    In a move that could shape how self-custodial cryptocurrency wallets interact with regulated markets in the United States, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission has allowed Phantom Technologies to offer derivatives access without registering as an intermediary. The CFTC’s Market Participants Division issued the "no-action" letter on Tuesday, effectively promising not to pursue enforcement action against Phantom for failing to register as an introducing broker. The decision specifically...

    What Is AGI? The AI Goal Everyone Talks About But No One Can Clearly Define

    Artificial general intelligence, or AGI, is one of the most cited milestones in the AI industry. Tech executives predict it, investors dump billions into funding research into it, and critics warn about its risks once it arrives. But what exactly AGI is remains unclear, and researchers still disagree on what counts as “general intelligence,” when it might arrive, and how anyone would recognize it once it does. “There’s a bunch of different definitions,” Malo Bourgon, CEO of the Machine Intellig...
