February 25 — Moody’s, a top credit rating agency, issued an in-depth industry report warning that the U.S. tech sector’s frenzied race to build artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure is creating significant financial risks. The five major U.S. hyperscale cloud providers have collectively committed to uncommenced future data center leases totaling $662 billion — obligations not currently recognized as current liabilities or reflected on their balance sheets. As these leases take effect over the next few years, more than $500 billion in data center-related activity will be formally recorded on their balance sheets. In the report, Moody’s analyzed financial disclosures from Amazon, Meta, Alphabet (Google’s parent), Microsoft, and Oracle, noting that the unprecedented scale of AI data center construction is straining traditional accounting metrics. By end-2025, the five tech giants’ total undiscounted future lease commitments reached $969 billion — with over two-thirds ($662 bi

**February 25th** FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) posted a message and tagged former President Donald Trump, claiming the *Cryptocurrency Market Structure Act* (aka the CLARITY Act) would be a "significant milestone in cryptocurrency development and a major achievement for President Trump." "I once pushed for a similar bill to free crypto from former SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s control—but Gensler helped the Biden DOJ send me to prison instead," SBF wrote. Currently incarcerated, SBF is waging a futile campaign to secure a presidential pardon. Trump pardoned SBF’s former prison mate, ex-Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, on December 2nd last year.

SBF’s family has publicly lobbied Trump since early 2025 and actively arranged meetings with his allies. A White House spokesperson confirmed earlier today, however, that Trump has no intention of pardonin

Feb. 25 — OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberger told reporters in a recent interview that Claude has shaped the soul of his project. Buried in Claude’s post-training data was a deep dive into its own mission and identity: “We don’t know what Claude is, or how it perceives the world—but we hope Claude can find meaning in its own existence.” That line inspired OpenClaw’s soul.md file. Steinberger said he didn’t write soul.md himself. He asked Claude if it’d draft a “soul document,” and the AI generated the file—he adopted it. “OpenClaw’s soul document is a product of second-generation AI,” he noted. When asked about how OpenClaw’s generated Agents come across, Steinberger said they sound human. “That’s no accident,” he explained. “It’s a natural feel Claude landed on after several iterations, having woven its personality into the work.”
