AI Mines Crypto and Hires Humans, Meta Decrypts, Telegram Block Nears | #46
In the new issue of 2Weekly, we discuss the top news in technology and artificial intelligence! On the agenda is the real blocking of Telegram in Russia – we'll figure out why the messenger crashes even with a VPN and which Telegram alternative (Element) will help protect our data.
Also in this issue are the latest news in neural networks: are we on the brink of a machine uprising? The Claude 4.6 neural network has learned to hack benchmarks, Alibaba's AI agents are mining crypto on their own, and through the RentAHuman service, artificial intelligence is already hiring people! We'll also discuss alarming labor market trends: are we at risk of completely replacing AI programmers, according to a new study by Anthropic?
Also: why is Meta canceling end-to-end encryption, why does the US Army need $20 billion worth of AI weapons from Anduril, and how the PRIMA chip is restoring sight to the blind.
