According to The Block, bipartisan Senators Thom Tillis (Republican) and Ruben Gallego (Democrat) submitted a new ethics compromise proposal to the White House on Thursday morning local time, attempting to break the deadlock in advancing the Clarity Act cryptocurrency legislation. Currently, there is less than a week left until the Senate recesses on August 7, but the bill still has not obtained the 60 votes required for passage. Democrats insist on adding stricter ethics provisions to constrain the Trump family's crypto interests, including the Meme coins they issued and the World Liberty Financial project in which the family participates, while some Republican senators have objections to the stablecoin interest provisions, worrying that it will divert deposits from traditional banks to the crypto sector. Although the draft leaked last week prohibited public officials and their spouses from issuing digital assets, it did not cover other family members, and included a "sunset clause" expiring in January 2029, which critics believe essentially nullifies the entire ethics provision. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent subsequently blamed the Democrats on X, stating that they "chose political gaming on the verge of a major victory". The Crypto Innovation Committee (CCI) warned that if the bill fails to pass, the US will hand over its global leadership position in the field of crypto regulation.

Skyfall AI, an artificial intelligence startup founded by former Microsoft AI team members, has announced it will spend up to $1 million to acquire a small B2B SaaS or e-commerce company, attempting to let an AI system fully take over operations to test whether an 'AI CEO' can manage a real commercial organization.Skyfall AI co-founder Sam Pasupalak and CTO Kaheer Suleman believe the current AI industry is largely focused on creating 'autonomous employees'—gradually replacing individual tasks—but this does not represent true enterprise autonomy. They aim to test whether AI can cover the full range of decisions, including pricing, marketing, customer support, finance, and operations, by running a real business.The project's goal is to have the AI serve as the core manager of the enterprise, driving revenue growth with reduced human intervention, while publicly documenting the successes and failures encountered during the experiment.Skyfall’s founders stated that while existing large language models (LLMs) perform well with known knowledge and in fixed environments, they still fall short in continuous learning when faced with competitive changes, shifts in customer behavior, and market dynamics. Therefore, the company is exploring a new AI architecture called 'Enterprise World Models,' aiming to enable AI to understand the operational state of a business and predict the impact of decisions on future development.Skyfall AI was founded by members of the Maluuba team. Maluuba was acquired by Microsoft for approximately $160 million in 2017, and its technology later became part of Microsoft's AI research presence in Canada. (Forbes)
