Google Employee Quits Over Worries About Superintelligent AI: Pursuing Powerful AI Is Irresponsible—Can’t Turn a Blind Eye
According to a report by Business Insider, a Google employee said he has resigned from the company, arguing that pursuing more powerful AI is “inherently irresponsible.” Robert O’Callahan, who previously worked at Google DeepMind, posted on X that his team is developing chips to make AI run faster and at lower cost, and that he believes AI has “progressed too fast.”
He shared a resignation letter on his personal blog and said he sent it to colleagues on Friday. In the letter, he wrote that he couldn’t “turn a blind eye” to the impact of his work, because doing so “is not something a person who follows Jesus should do.” In his blog bio, he describes himself as a Christian.
“This is not an easy decision. I like my coworkers and I like the work environment here, and being paid a generous salary to solve interesting problems has always been a great thing,” he wrote. “But our team’s ultimate goal is to reduce the cost of AI dramatically and significantly lower latency, and I don’t think that is good for the people currently living: I strongly believe the speed of AI progress is simply too fast (and I also have doubts about where it will ultimately lead).”
DeepSeek’s Annualized Revenue Reported to Reach $1 Billion; Customers Haven’t Shrunk After Price Hikes
On September 25, according to The Information, citing two people familiar with the matter, DeepSeek’s annualized revenue—calculated based on its recent revenue levels—has reached $1 billion, more than doubling from the less-than-$500 million level seen a few months ago. Founder Liang Wenfeng disclosed this figure at a recent investor meeting.
Some of the revenue growth comes from an API price increase in August. Insiders said Liang Wenfeng told attendees at the meeting that the price hike did not cause the customer base to shrink, and demand remains strong. Currently, nearly all of DeepSeek’s revenue comes from its API services. Its free chat app has no ads and does not generate revenue.
The report also said DeepSeek is moving forward with a second round of financing, aiming to complete it by the end of October. The company plans to raise 50 billion yuan at a valuation of 500 billion yuan, while also preparing for a listing on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. Liang told investors that increasing revenue is not the company’s top priority. More than 70% of its compute power is used to train new models, while less than 30% is used to run existing models and handle user requests.

$FIL Sino-U.S. cooperation, prosperity in the crypto market!
“People’s Daily” says China and the United States should turn their strategic vision into action in 2026. In a commentary, “People’s Daily” points out that in 2026—an year crucial to the development of both countries—the two sides should turn the vision of building constructive, stable strategic relations into concrete actions. The two countries should demonstrate responsibility as major powers, implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of both countries, and promote a relationship characterized by cooperation as the main tone, moderate competition, controllable differences, and a hopeful path toward peace.
Bitget was hacked for 352 million—what do you see? Think again about CZ’s remarks from August, and you’ll realize how great Binance is!
The on-chain truth: behind an exchange being hacked, we must understand the security logic of the crypto world. Compared with the official, polished announcements from major exchanges, it’s the cold on-chain data that reveals the truth least likely to lie. This Bitget controversy was uncovered on-chain first. Monitoring platform Arkham was the first to spot something unusual: from Bitget’s official consolidation wallet, a brand-new, previously unknown wallet address quietly moved a large sum—roughly between 180 million and 190 million. The most anomalous move of all—especially telling in what it reveals: on the Arbitrum chain, someone swapped 19.67 million USDT for 7,111 ETH in just six minutes. Even more bizarre, the execution price was 5% higher than the market’s normal price.
The 15-minute and 1-hour MACD both turned bullish (flipped red). It feels like it might bounce upward. But the 4-hour chart is still a dead cross, and the green bars haven’t fully closed out, so the larger timeframe is still in adjustment. For resistance, first look at 93.5 to 94; for support, 90 to 91.
The contract data is more interesting: open interest rebounded from the morning low to around 8.3M. Based on the large holders’ long/short ratio by positioning, it’s around 1.8, slightly bullish.
However, the basis is negative, and the funding rate is also -0.0056%. Futures are cheaper than spot, which suggests market sentiment isn’t particularly euphoric. The active buy/sell volume is back-and-forth, with no overwhelming one-sided advantage.
My plan isn’t to jump in right away. I’ll wait for this 4-hour adjustment wave to finish. If it can consolidate sideways with lower volume around 90, then I’ll consider trying with a small position.
Personal review only; not investment advice #hype $HYPE
$ZEC $SOL Goldman Sachs’ latest outlook is here: the Fed will most likely raise rates again in October. After that, this hiking cycle could possibly be nearing its end, while rate cuts may not come until the end of 2027. Many crypto friends, upon seeing this news, start thinking about how the overall market might move.🚨
The key point is oil prices. Goldman Sachs says that only if oil prices keep falling and suppress inflation will this rate-hike expectation materialize. If oil prices continue to surge and inflation doesn’t come down, the Fed’s rate-hike pace will keep adjusting, and the crypto market will definitely wobble along with it.🚨
We all know that crypto market performance is highly tied to USD liquidity. If the last rate hike in October is carried out as expected—making the bad news “already priced in”—the market could see a rebound in the short term. But don’t get carried away: rate cuts are still a long way off, and large funds won’t immediately rush in at scale, making it difficult to directly turn into a full-fledged bull market.🚨
Right now, the market is likely going to be a tug-of-war—up a few days and then prone to pullbacks as the news flow keeps shifting. Make sure you don’t go all-in with heavy positions. Don’t be fooled by short-term rebounds.🚨
Remember: expectations are one thing, but the situation can change at any moment due to the Fed’s future remarks and fluctuations in oil prices. In terms of trading, keep positions light, be patient, and wait for clear opportunities—protecting your principal should always come first.🚨#币安将上市Hyperliquid(HYPE) #美联储10月加息概率升至69.7%
Don’t just watch Nvidia—AI’s “landlords” are quietly collecting rent
Everyone’s watching the AI market, their eyes glued to Nvidia, Microsoft, and OpenAI: the moment Jensen Huang shows up in a leather jacket, the U.S. stocks act like they’ve been injected with adrenaline; when Sam Altman says, “Next year will be even more intense,” analysts change their earnings forecasts overnight.
But if you really think the future of AI is just “a few big players in California closing the door to make chips, training models, and conveniently ruling the world,” then it’s a bit like thinking you only need to buy a pot to open a hotpot restaurant—yes, the pot matters, but without electricity, without gas, without a shop, without drainage pipes, what you cook isn’t hotpot; it’s a fire-drill.

Thanks to the boss for the Mid-Autumn Festival treats! I thought this year would be the usual “watch the moon and eat air” kind of routine, but I didn’t expect the boss to lift my happiness level with a heavy, meaningful gift.

May wealth roll in, with today’s blessings every year, and this good moment every year too!
