Shiba Inu (SHIB) has begun July on a positive note, with several on-chain metrics painting a bullish signal for the second-largest meme coin by market cap. These bullish developments could provide the much-needed turnaround for the meme coin, which had a June to forget.  SHIB’s Burn Rate Surges By 16,854% Data from the burn tracking website Shibburn shows that Shiba Inu’s burn rate spiked by over 16,854% in the last 24 hours, with over 300 million Shiba Inu tokens burned during this period. This is massive for the meme coin, given the positive impact the token burns have on its…

In the last two weeks of June, SubWallet announced support for Polkadot <> Kusama bridge and Polkadot <> Ethereum bridge on its browser extension, followed by the integration of the Asset Conversion pallet on its web dashboard that allows swapping among DOT, USDT, and USDC on the Polkadot Asset Hub network. These bridges and swaps are important updates that expand use cases of the Polkadot ecosystem, and SubWallet is the first to support them on a sleek UI with easy UX. Polkadot Expands Ecosystem Use Cases The second quarter of 2024 has witnessed many long-term developments in the Polkadot ecosystem…

Ripple’s price has been consolidating for the past few months and is yet to show any willingness to either drop or rally. Ripple Price Analysis By TradingRage The USDT Paired Chart On the USDT pair, Ripple has been range-bound since dropping below the 200-day moving average, which is currently located around the $0.55 mark. The price has recently broken the $0.5 support level to the downside, and if it is unable to reclaim this level in the coming days, a drop toward the $0.4 support zone would be inevitable. With the RSI also showing values below 50%, the momentum is…

In the rapidly evolving landscape of information retrieval and artificial intelligence, a study from Triangle Lab in Canada and Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca in Italy has cast a spotlight on a critical issue: the accessibility of generative information systems for users with literacy challenges. The study, presented at the 2024 ACM SIGIR Conference on Human Information Interaction and Retrieval, underscores the urgency of developing inclusive AI technologies that cater to the entire spectrum of literacy levels among users. The study’s findings point to a pressing concern within the industry; generative models such as ChatGPT, Bing Chat, and others,…

The quest for artificial general intelligence (AGI) has taken a significant stride forward with the introduction of HuggingGPT, a system designed to leverage large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT to manage and utilize various AI models from machine learning communities like Hugging Face. This innovative approach paves the way for more sophisticated AI tasks across different domains and modalities, marking a notable advancement towards the realization of AGI. Developed through a collaboration between Zhejiang University and Microsoft Research Asia, HuggingGPT acts as a controller, enabling LLMs to perform complex task planning, model selection, and execution by using language as…

A recent comprehensive survey titled “A Survey of AGI Hallucination” by Feng Wang from Soochow University sheds light on the challenges and current research surrounding hallucinations in Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) models. As AGI continues to advance, addressing the issue of hallucinations has become a critical focus for researchers in the field. The survey categorizes AGI hallucinations into three main types: conflict in intrinsic knowledge of models, factual conflict in information forgetting and updating, and conflict in multimodal fusion. These hallucinations manifest in various ways across different modalities, such as language, vision, video, audio, and 3D or agent-based systems. The…

Cognition Labs has revealed a groundbreaking artificial intelligence named Devin, the first AI software engineer with the capability to autonomously complete complex coding tasks. This milestone, funded by a $21 million Series A led by Founders Fund, showcases the potential for AI to revolutionize the tech industry. Devin stands apart from other coding assistants by not only suggesting code snippets but by planning, executing, and debugging entire projects. It is equipped with standard developer tools within a sandboxed environment, allowing it to operate just like a human engineer. Its performance on the SWE-bench benchmark is particularly notable, where it resolved…

The transition to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) has been a topic of great interest and speculation in recent years. Many researchers and industry leaders believe that AGI, which refers to AI systems that can perform all tasks at human levels, may soon become a reality. In a working paper titled “Scenarios for the Transition to AGI,” economists Anton Korinek and Donghyun Suh delve into the economic implications of AGI development. The paper starts by examining the relationship between technological progress, output, and wages. The authors propose a framework that decomposes human work into atomistic tasks with varying levels of complexity.…

With Data Protocol You control who can access your data and how it’s used. We prioritize your privacy and provide robust security measures. The integral blockchain characteristics integrated into DP enable security of the information. DP’s cryptographic mechanisms add layers of security and data encryption, ensuring that data once stored on the blocks can’t be manipulated by anyone. Critical data, such as metadata and access control parameters, is stored directly on the blockchain, providing transparency and immutability. Since DP uses a decentralized architecture, data remains more secure and accountable. Larger datasets are stored off-chain using the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS).…
