Anthropic mislabeled a quota reduction as an increase: Claude Code's weekly limit will be 17% lower starting September 14

BitMine Chairman Tom Lee told CNBC in an interview that Nvidia’s strong earnings report pushed its stock price higher, breaking the recent pattern where positive earnings results failed to lift share prices, signaling investors still value corporate fundamentals. Software stocks including Salesforce, CrowdStrike, and Okta also rallied, reflecting the market’s positive response to downstream AI deals, with overall market reactions remaining healthy. Regarding the underperformance of AI-related stocks such as Meta, Amazon, Alphabet, AMD, and Micron, Tom Lee noted that some investors who had underweighted Nvidia may be selling other tech stocks to raise funds to increase their Nvidia holdings. He pointed out that Nvidia’s profit expectations have been significantly revised upward, yet its stock price has not fully caught up, with its price-to-earnings ratio still contracting, meaning its current valuation remains low. Tom Lee also stated that data center construction is gradually becoming a political issue in the U.S. midterm elections, and even some Republican-led states and states that support data center development are starting to consider pausing related projects. This could be one reason for the recent poor performance of AI infrastructure-related stocks, as funds are shifting more toward downstream AI assets.

SVM Layer 1 blockchain network Fogo announced it has taken preventive measures to temporarily suspend its mainnet after detecting unauthorized activity, aimed at halting further transfers of affected assets. During the suspension, Fogo will upgrade its network and restrict addresses linked to the incident. The team stated it will release subsequent updates once more information is confirmed, and reminded users to obtain relevant details exclusively through Fogo’s official channels. To date, the cause of the incident, the scale of affected assets, and the timeline for mainnet recovery remain unannounced. Earlier reports noted that the Fogo Foundation was recently hacked by unknown attackers, resulting in approximately 400 million FOGO tokens being transferred to attacker addresses. The foundation said it immediately notified relevant trading platforms and is actively coordinating with law enforcement agencies and forensics experts.

Beating AI News Flash: SpaceXAI has integrated X into its Grok Bot. After users link their X accounts, the system will automatically create a developer account if they don’t already have one. Paid Grok Bot users also receive a free X API call quota. Post-integration, Grok Bot can directly search posts, read personal timelines, check mentions, summarize X’s latest trends, and view and manage bookmarks. Previously, accessing the X API required users to apply for a developer account and configure the API themselves—steps now largely handled by Grok Bot. Paired with Grok Bot’s continuous operation capability, users can have it monitor X long-term, automatically organize trending topics, track accounts, or periodically summarize bookmarked content. However, it currently can only read X content and manage bookmarks, and cannot post, reply, like, repost, or send direct messages. While the authorization page requests broader permissions like managing lists and blocking accounts, these operations are not yet available among the 25 tools open to X plugins.

Economists forecast that the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ monthly jobs report, due out Friday, will show nonfarm payrolls rose by 55,000 in August, following an unexpected decline in July employment. If realized, this figure will align roughly with the average monthly gain recorded so far this year. The unemployment rate is projected to hold steady at 4.1%. Analyst Anna Wong stated that Fed official Christopher Waller’s hawkish remarks at the Jackson Hole Symposium have increased the likelihood of a September interest rate hike and altered market expectations for how next week’s data should be interpreted. The August nonfarm payrolls report remains a key headline data point, but its projected weak performance may not carry as much decisive influence as usual. Waller characterized the labor market as being in good health, noting that slowing job growth is often a demographic issue rather than a sign of recession. (Jin10)
