AI 存在调整风险!

ARK Invest 首席执行官「木头姐」Cathie Wood 警告称,随着利率明年可能开始上升,市场将面临一次「不寒而栗」的调整,人工智能相关领域的估值也将迎来一次「现实检验」。

周二,她在沙特阿拉伯首都利雅得举行的未来投资倡议(FII)峰会期间表示,她预计市场讨论的焦点将在未来一年内从降息转向加息。这一转变可能会触发市场的剧烈反应。

尽管 Wood 预警了短期调整风险,但她明确反驳了当前存在 AI 泡沫的说法。她认为,从长远来看,大型科技公司的估值是合理的,因为世界正处于一场由 AI 驱动的技术革命的开端。

Wood 的此番言论正值全球各大金融机构对科技股高估值的担忧日益加剧之际。就在本月早些时候,国际货币基金组织(IMF)和英国央行均警告称,一旦投资者对 AI 的热情降温,全球股市可能陷入困境。

市场将迎「现实检验」

Wood 详细阐述了她对市场短期风险的看法。她预测,随着明年利率环境的变化,市场将出现一次「颤抖」。

「我们将在明年某个时刻,看到市场讨论的焦点从降息转向加息」,Wood 表示。她指出,尽管许多人认为创新与利率呈负相关,但历史数据并不支持这一观点。她希望「打消人们的这种观念」。

然而,Wood 补充说,考虑到「当今算法的运作方式」,利率的上升趋势仍可能引发她所说的「现实检验」。此番言论的背景是,企业和投资者正向科技领域投入巨额资金,引发了对估值过高的担忧。

拒绝承认「AI 泡沫」

尽管预警了短期风险,但 Wood 对 AI 的长期前景依然坚定看多,并否认了泡沫的存在。

「我不认为 AI 处于泡沫之中」,Wood 在被问及相关问题时直接回应。她认为,当前只是「一场技术革命的开端」。她承认市场可能会出现回调,因为许多人担心「这一切是否来得太多、太快」,但她相信从长远来看,大型科技公司的估值将是合理的。

Wood 同时指出,企业层面对 AI 的接纳和转型需要时间。「大型企业需要时间来为转型做好准备」,她补充道:

「这需要像 Palantir 这样的公司进入大型企业,对它们进行真正的重组,才能真正利用我们认为 AI 将释放的生产力收益。」

Wood 的观点呼应了近期多位监管者和商界领袖的审慎态度。本月早些时候,IMF 总裁 Kristalina Georgieva 建议:

「系好安全带:不确定性是新的常态,而且它将持续存在。」

除 IMF 与英国央行外,包括 OpenAI 的 Sam Altman、摩根大通首席执行官 Jamie Dimon 以及美联储主席 Jerome Powell 在内的多位知名人士,也纷纷对 AI 支出激增可能带来的股市回调风险表示了担忧。

AI Boosting Efficiency and Cutting Costs Makes VC Increasingly Expensive

"AI for Cost Reduction Makes VC Funding More Expensive" Despite the "cost-reduction and efficiency" narrative of AI, venture capital (VC) investment in the AI sector is becoming increasingly costly. While AI tools lower the initial costs for many startups—with team sizes shrinking across funding stages—the market is polarizing. For top-tier AI teams, especially those from leading companies like Google and OpenAI, funding rounds are now larger and valuations are higher than ever at the seed and early stages. For example, new ventures by prominent researchers are securing billions in funding with valuations reaching tens of billions before having a mature product. This creates a "barbell" market: lightweight startups need less capital, while elite AI firms attract massive investments early on. This dynamic raises the cost for VCs to acquire and maintain meaningful ownership stakes. As valuations soar early, securing the same equity percentage requires significantly larger capital commitments. VCs must now invest more upfront and reserve substantial funds for follow-on rounds to avoid dilution, prompting large firms like Accel and a16z to raise massive new funds. Consequently, capital is concentrating intensely in a few perceived winners like OpenAI and Anthropic, widening the gap between large and small VC funds. While high valuations bake in future growth expectations, they also compress potential returns, demanding that portfolio companies achieve unprecedented scale. For major VCs, the core strategy is clear: secure early positions in potential winners and maintain the capital to keep investing as valuations rapidly escalate.

An Eight-Year Investment Takes a Sharp Turn: Why Did Ethereum Suddenly Abandon Poseidon?

On August 13, Ethereum researcher Justin Drake announced a significant shift in Ethereum's Layer-1 cryptographic roadmap: abandoning the SNARK-friendly hash function Poseidon in favor of traditional functions like SHA2 or BLAKE2. This decision ends eight years of research and investment, marking a major revision to the post-quantum security strategy. Poseidon, introduced in 2019, was highly efficient for zkRollups and zkVMs within SNARK circuits. However, its need for prolonged cryptanalysis and the pressing timeline for quantum resistance revealed limitations. Recent breakthroughs in SNARK design, specifically using binary fields, now enable traditional, battle-tested hash functions to perform as efficiently as Poseidon within SNARKs. Benchmarks show modern laptops can now verify over a million traditional hash calls per second. This change is partly driven by accelerated concerns over quantum computing threats. Reports warn that "Cryptographically Relevant Quantum Computers" could break current blockchain signatures like ECDSA by the early 2030s, risking trillions in assets. Ethereum's response focuses on hash-based post-quantum signature schemes, deemed more quantum-resistant than some lattice-based alternatives under pressure from AI cryptanalysis. Ethereum's updated post-quantum roadmap targets a production-ready "leanVM" for signature aggregation by 2027, with full deployment across consensus, execution, and data layers by 2028. The shift to mature hash functions like SHA2 reduces reliance on newer algorithms and aligns with the goal of using widely analyzed cryptographic primitives. Other major blockchains are also preparing. Solana's core teams have independently chosen the NIST-standardized Falcon signature scheme for its compact size. Starknet plans a phased migration, starting with replacing its Pedersen hash with BLAKE2. Ethereum's move signifies a strategic pivot towards proven security foundations for the quantum era.

Programmers Worldwide Are Wasting Money on Anthropic! The Company Can't Stand It Anymore

Anthropic recently published guidelines to help developers using Claude Code reduce unnecessary token costs. The key recommendations include: 1) Clear (/clear) conversations after completing a task to avoid carrying irrelevant file reads and command outputs into the next task. 2) Set the model and reasoning effort level at the start of a session, as switching mid-session invalidates the prompt cache, requiring a full-price recalculation of the entire dialog history. 3) Attach files using @ references instead of typing paths manually to avoid extra tool calls and searches that bloat the context. 4) Add quiet flags to verbose commands (e.g., in CLAUDE.md) to minimize lengthy output in the dialog history. 5) Use /compact while the session cache is still warm (before breaks) to compress the dialog at one-tenth the cost. 6) Offload large-output tasks to a sub-agent, which runs in an isolated context and only returns conclusions, preventing intermediate outputs from polluting the main dialog. The article explains token pricing: input tokens (prefill) are processed in parallel, while output tokens (decode) are generated serially, making output tokens five times more expensive. Caching is crucial for savings—if a request's prefix (system prompt, CLAUDE.md, dialog history) matches the previous one byte-for-byte, reading it costs only 10% of the standard input price. However, cache invalidation occurs when changing models, effort levels, fast mode, compressing dialogs, after cache expiration, or when resuming old sessions. Dialog history also grows quadratically (O(n²)) as file contents and command outputs accumulate, increasing costs per round. Proactive context management—like isolating noisy tasks, using /rewind to trim unproductive turns, and task-based session clearing—is becoming an essential skill for cost-effective AI-assisted development.

Pax Silica vs. WAICO: The US Wants to Prohibit Europe from Using Chinese Artificial Intelligence

The United States is preparing to demand that European and other partners abandon Chinese artificial intelligence initiatives, threatening exclusion from the American-led "Pax Silica" coalition, according to a leaked U.S. State Department document. This ultimatum forces signatories of the "AI Opportunity Statement" to choose between the Western technological ecosystem and alternative frameworks, with China not explicitly named but clearly targeted. Pax Silica is a U.S. strategy for AI and semiconductor hegemony, launched in late 2025. Its European presence expanded significantly in mid-2026. Concurrently, China, Russia, and 27 other nations established the World AI Cooperation Organization (WAICO) in July 2026 as an independent intergovernmental platform promoting AI governance based on UN principles. This situation creates a difficult choice, especially for European nations balancing strategic autonomy with dependence on U.S. tech and security. It also pressures Global South countries with pragmatic ties to both Washington and Beijing. The formation of competing blocks risks fragmenting the global tech landscape, forcing companies to split supply chains, increasing costs, and potentially leading to incompatible standards and protocols. The era of open globalization in AI may be ending, replaced by geopolitical confrontation where technological sovereignty trumps economic efficiency. The decisions made will shape the global digital economy for decades.
