Navigating the Shifts in Crypto and AI Industries

This time around we had a bit of a theme. See if you can spot it:

• Stocks are down around the world in the wake of Hamas' attack in Israel. Crypto is similarly in the red.
• China is working to bolster its national computing and data infrastructure. You know, the things that make AI function. In other words: the AI race between China and the United States is far from over.
• This Anthropic paper is a potentially big deal. The more that we understand LLMs, the better we can use them, right?
• Changes at YC!
• And from Startup Land: Wanda Fish Technologies just raised $7 million to make fake fish, and Lottie raised $21 million to keep tackling the UK care home market.

That's our show for today! We have some really fun interviews coming up, so make sure to tune in on Wednesday!
