Microsoft published a 155-pages long paper about the capabilities and limitations of an early GPT-4.
Quote from the abstract: GPT-4 could reasonably be viewed as an early (yet still incomplete) version of an AGI.

Italy’s decision to ban ChatGPT is likely to be just the start of OpenAI’s potential troubles in Europe.
Germany is contemplating following Italy’s lead. The U.K. data privacy regulator has warned companies that if they aren’t careful their use of generative AI models could land them in hot water too.
Some legal scholars are wondering if any large foundation model could ever really comply with Europe’s strict data privacy law, GDPR—and whether that means GDPR itself might need to be changed.

What's the benefit of tokenising everything on a Blockchain? $16 TRILLION! (Or 10% of Global GDP)...
That's the value of assets that Boston Consulting Group (BCG) forecast will be tokenised using Blockchain technology by 2030.
That's a very big number, and we're currently at a pretty low base today. So where and why are we going to see this forecast explosion in tokenisation of real-world and digital assets in the next 7-years?
The team at Rejolut (no, not the neo-bank) have pulled together some helpful case studies so you can catch-up quickly. They've included examples covering:
- Precious Metals
- Real Estate
- Artwork
- Agro Commodities
- Securities
- Medical and Pharmaceutical Products
- Finance
- Gaming...
...and they have put together a helpful forecast of how these sectors are likely to continue their path to adoption and innovation; including some of the ongoing challenges (e.g. practice-based evidence, trust, regulation and infrastructure).

Singapore central bank and police have been helping banks to fine-tune their vetting approach when opening accounts for service providers in all types of digital assets.
The project has been ongoing for about six months, and an industry report outlining best practices in areas like due diligence and risk management may be published in the next two months.

LLMs just hit a major milestone with the release of the new "Generative agents" paper.
By using LLMs, generative agents were able to simulate human-like behavior in an interactive sandbox inspired by The Sims.
The agent architecture extends Language Models to store a complete record of the agent's experiences using natural language, synthesize those memories over time into higher-level reflections, and retrieve them dynamically to plan behavior.
There are three components to it:
1. The memory stream, which records a comprehensive list of the agent's experiences
2. Reflection, which synthesizes memories into higher-level inferences over time
3. Planning, which translates those conclusions and the current environment into high-level action plans.

OpenAGI: When LLM Meets Domain Experts
OpenAGI is an open-source AGI research platform designed to offer complex, multi-step tasks.
OpenAGI formulates complex tasks as natural language queries serving as input to the Large Language Models.
The LLM subsequently selects, synthesizes, and executes models provided by Open AGI to address the task.

A16Z crypto today realized the 2023 State of Crypto Report and introduce the State of Crypto Index.
One of the key insights that you’ll find from the report is that blockchains have more active users, and more ways to engage than ever before.
More monthly active addresses – unique addresses sending on-chain transactions each month – than ever.
Last month 15 million addresses, more than twice as many as two years ago when prices were still elevated.
One explanation: there are increasingly more ways to engage with blockchains and web3 applications.
From DeFi to web3 games – more than 700 of which launched last year – a variety of new applications create addresses for their users to interact with, without having to download or connect a wallet.
