Decentralized privacy computing project Acurast announced it has achieved large-scale deployment of the open-source "System 1" decision model Laya on its smartphone-powered network. Developed by Convai Innovations and licensed under Apache-2.0, the model is designed primarily for real-time decision-making rather than traditional text generation.

Each decision typically takes 0.2 to 1 second to complete, operating exclusively on CPU. The project added that its network has connected over 280,000 smartphones across more than 175 countries and regions worldwide, and has processed more than 918 million on-chain transactions.

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman says the Federal Reserve’s 25-basis-point benchmark interest rate hike to a range of 3.75% to 4.00% is likely a mistake. He argues the AI arms race is driving big tech firms to keep expanding capital expenditures; even with rising borrowing costs, companies will likely continue building data centers and purchasing computing power, undermining the traditional dampening effect of rate hikes on investment demand. Meanwhile, higher interest costs could also pass through to goods and services prices via supply chains and pricing mechanisms, adding further inflationary pressure. Ackman noted that the current AI investment boom is likely altering the transmission mechanism of traditional monetary policy. Bridgewater data shows Alphabet, Amazon, Meta and Microsoft are expected to spend at least $650 billion on AI-related investments this year. Gartner projects global AI spending will hit $2.7 trillion by 2026, a 49.5% year-over-year increase. Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, also previously said the Fed’s rate hike at this juncture is a “mistake”, warning that to push inflation back to its 2% target, the Fed may need to curb the AI investment boom or suppress other segments of the economy. U.S. inflation remains above the Fed’s 2% target, and markets are pricing in further rate hikes. CME FedWatch data indicates 30-day federal funds futures imply roughly a 64% probability of an October rate hike.
