π Fed Officials to Speak Before Pre-Meeting Silence Period
#FederalReserve #InterestRates #EmploymentReport #EconomicGrowth #Inflation #RateCut #PreMeetingSilence #JobGrowth #UnemploymentRate
According to Odaily, Friday marks the last day before the Federal Reserve officials enter their pre-meeting silence period. Federal Reserve's Williams and Governor Waller are scheduled to speak after the release of the employment report, providing the final opportunity to set expectations for the upcoming meeting. With economic growth and inflation slowing, adjusting the interest rate from the current 5.3% to around 4.5% seems more reasonable. If there are no signs that July's weak employment will continue into August, some Fed officials may resist a significant rate cut of 50 basis points. However, officials who were open to a rate cut at the July meeting might support a 50 basis point cut in September if the unemployment rate rises again and job growth further slows.#FederalReserve #InterestRates #EmploymentReport #EconomicGrowth #Inflation #RateCut #PreMeetingSilence #JobGrowth #UnemploymentRate

π Telegram Expands Moderation To Private Chats Amid Legal Scrutiny
#Telegram #Moderation #PrivateChats #IllegalContent #PavelDurov #LegalScrutiny #UserSafety #MessagingApp #PlatformChanges #CriminalActivities
According to CoinDesk, Telegram has significantly changed its approach to moderating illegal content on its platform following the arrest of CEO Pavel Durov in France. Durov was detained for allegedly failing to control law-breaking activities on the messaging app. In response, Telegram has extended its moderation capabilities to include private chats, allowing users to flag illegal content for review. This marks a departure from the app's previous policy, which treated private groups as off-limits for moderation.
The policy shift, quietly updated on Telegram's FAQ page, could alter the app's reputation as a haven for illegal activities, a claim made by French authorities. Last month, Durov was arrested in France for allegedly permitting criminal activities to proliferate on the platform. Although Durov has dismissed the charges as baseless, he is required to stay in France until his trial.
In a Telegram post earlier on Thursday, Durov acknowledged that the app's rapid growth had inadvertently made it easier for criminals to exploit the platform. He assured users that changes would be implemented to prevent such abuses. Durov emphasized his commitment to safeguarding the platform for its over 950 million users, stating that he is still trying to understand the situation in France but is attentive to the concerns raised.#Telegram #Moderation #PrivateChats #IllegalContent #PavelDurov #LegalScrutiny #UserSafety #MessagingApp #PlatformChanges #CriminalActivities

π US Non-Farm Payroll Data Crucial for Citibank and JPMorgan's Rate Cut Predictions

According to Odaily, the upcoming release of the US non-farm payroll data on Friday will be a significant test for Citibank and JPMorgan, who have boldly predicted a 50 basis point rate cut in September. For over a year, foreign exchange traders have not been this excited ahead of the US employment report. On the eve of the crucial non-farm payroll data release, options used to measure the dollar's exchange rate against major trading partners have reached their highest level since March 2023. Risk reversal data indicates a bearish sentiment towards the dollar. Since the weaker-than-expected July non-farm payroll data was released on August 2, Citibank and JPMorgan have been forecasting that the Federal Reserve will cut rates by 50 basis points in both September and November, and by 25 basis points in December. Interest rate swap contracts show that there is approximately a 35% chance of a significant 50 basis point rate cut at the Federal Reserve's September 17-18 meeting, although traders and economists believe a 25 basis point cut is more likely.#NonFarmPayroll #Citibank #JPMorgan #RateCut #USDollar #InterestRates #FederalReserve #EconomicForecast #ForexTraders #MarketSentiment

π John Paulson Predicts US Federal Reserve Rate Cuts by 2025

According to Odaily, billionaire investor John Paulson has forecasted that the US Federal Reserve will reduce interest rates to as low as 2.5% by the end of 2025. Paulson criticized the Fed for being slow in cutting rates and suggested that measures to lower rates will be taken in the coming months. In an interview with Bloomberg Television, he estimated that the federal funds rate could drop to 3%, or even 2.5%, next year. He highlighted that maintaining high real interest rates, which is the difference between bond yields and the current inflation rate, indicates that the Fed is lagging in easing monetary policy. Paulson also emphasized the importance of comments from the President and the Treasury Secretary on economic policy.#JohnPaulson #FederalReserve #RateCuts #InterestRates #MonetaryPolicy #Inflation #EconomicPolicy

π New AI Chatbot Learns From Its Mistakes
#AI #Chatbot #HyperWrite #Reflection70B #OpenSource #ReflectionTuning #LanguageModels #SelfCorrection #AIHallucinations #ArtificialGeneralIntelligence #Microsoft #OpenAI #MachineLearning #TechInnovation
According to Cointelegraph, a new artificial intelligence chatbot named 'Reflection 70B' has been introduced by HyperWrite AI. CEO Matt Shumer announced the development on Sept. 5, claiming it to be the world's top open-source model. The AI was trained using a technique called 'Reflection-Tuning,' designed to enable large language models (LLMs) to correct their own mistakes.
Reflection Llama-3.1 70B, which is Meta's open-source AI launched in July, can compete with top closed-source models like Anthropicβs Claude 3.5 Sonnet and OpenAIβs GPT-4o in several benchmarks, according to Shumer. He explained that current AI models often hallucinate, meaning they generate inaccurate outputs by perceiving patterns or objects that do not exist. Reflection-Tuning aims to address this by allowing AI to recognize and correct its mistakes before finalizing an answer.
Reflection tuning involves feeding AI responses back into the model, asking it to evaluate its own outputs to identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. This iterative process helps the AI continuously refine its capabilities, making it more self-aware and better at critiquing and improving its performance. Shumer noted that with the right prompting, the new model is highly effective for various use cases.
In 2023, Microsoft-backed OpenAI released a research paper discussing methods to prevent AI hallucinations. One proposed idea was 'process supervision,' which involves training AI models to reward themselves for each correct step of reasoning rather than just the final correct conclusion. Karl Cobbe, a researcher at OpenAI, emphasized the importance of detecting and mitigating logical mistakes or hallucinations as a critical step towards building aligned artificial general intelligence (AGI).#AI #Chatbot #HyperWrite #Reflection70B #OpenSource #ReflectionTuning #LanguageModels #SelfCorrection #AIHallucinations #ArtificialGeneralIntelligence #Microsoft #OpenAI #MachineLearning #TechInnovation
