Abstract

Event Preview: Creating Pop Culture with Prompts | Super Creator Live In 1970s South Bronx, New York, resourceful young people transformed record players into instruments by looping beats, birthing hip-hop and demonstrating how culture emerges from playful, rule-breaking creativity. Similarly, today’s AI technology is often narrowly viewed through a lens of economic efficiency—yet its true potential may lie beyond utilitarian applications. This event, co-hosted by Beating and West Sea Radio, invites creators to explore AI’s expressive, cultural, and emotional possibilities. We seek demos—whether games, films, music, or emotionally resonant experiments—that use AI to turn unique ideas into tangible creations. This gathering aims to connect creators, investors, and audiences, fostering a space for unconventional thinking. By enabling individuals to transform personal stories and emotions into shareable art, AI is democratizing pop culture—shifting it from top-down production to a participatory, prompt-driven movement. Join us to help shape this new wave.

In the South Bronx of the 1970s, resources were scarce, but the party had to go on. Young people who couldn't afford live bands brought home turntables to street corners and abandoned warehouses, dancing joyfully to the beat of the drums.

Before this, playing records was a ritual of step-by-step precision. Dust had to be wiped away, the record placed, the switch pressed, and the needle set down. After a few faint, intermittent crackles, the melody would rise from the background noise.

"It feels a bit too rigid."

That's what the young people of half a century ago thought as they repeatedly switched between the same drum breaks, cueing, looping, and looping again. In the never-ending rhythm, they turned a machine meant for playing back music into a brand new instrument. What happened next, we all know: these self-proclaimed "DJs" single-handedly created Hip-Hop, unleashing a torrent of vibrant energy that flows to this day.

Most moments in the birth of pop culture share a similar history—myths from imagination to popularity, constantly "played" out by those who refuse to be disciplined by convention, in a spirit of defiance.

There's no doubt that our era loves change more than any before. In the horizon of time built by imagination, human civilization, still toddling within the solar system, is in its most energetic years, so technological development also carries an unstoppable momentum.

Faced with the surging wave of AI, many people feel a sense of disorienting anxiety. Subconsciously, we take it for granted that cutting-edge technology must be used for economically rational purposes. So, in calculations of cost reduction and efficiency gains, we repeatedly sketch out that seemingly more powerful and cheaper virtual labor force.

"It feels a bit too rigid."

I wonder if you resonate with those young people on the streets back then. Just as no one said turntables could only play music, if we don't do the "serious business" mentioned above, what else can AI do?

We want to see the fun and spirit that spills out when you cross swords with AI experts. Thus, Beating and our old friends at West Sea Radio have co-planned another offline gathering, giving it a somewhat cheeky name—"Super Creator Live."

Beyond economic rationality, pop culture, emotional value, and fun creativity are also indispensable pieces of the world we live in.

A complete world is not just about the infrastructure of steel and concrete. One of the most important driving forces behind the popularization of technology is its silent infiltration into the daily lives of ordinary people: it's the music that makes someone hit repeat late at night, the short films that make people laugh and cry, the interactive games that carry joy and sorrow.

In the past, if you wanted to produce an album, shoot a short film, or create a game, you faced high financial barriers and technical walls. Pop culture back then was manufactured top-down by a few large institutions, and the masses could only sit in the audience, being dutiful consumers.

But now, if you have a great idea in your head and a strong desire to express it, AI can assist you in creating, giving form to your creativity.

Thus, we are also opening Demo recruitment for this event.

If you're tinkering with some interesting products using AI, whether it's games, film and TV, music, or just weird things that provide emotional value, as long as it carries your expression and creativity, we welcome you to scan the code to submit your Demo and bring it to the event. (Whether you submit or not, we suggest scanning the code to take a look—there's a surprise.)

Come碰撞 (collide) with like-minded creators, chat with sharp investors, and meet potential users face-to-face. This is a field for wild ideas to freely碰撞 (collide), letting those seemingly "unserious" thoughts come out into the sun.

When everyone can use AI to turn their emotions, stories, and quirks into images, music, virtual companions, or interactive entertainment products, the production logic of pop culture is completely overturned. It is no longer a monopolized privilege but a new wave that everyone can participate in and create with Prompts.

We believe that the pop culture of the new era is being written line by line by us with Prompts.

From Theft to Re-entry: How Was $292 Million "Laundered"?

A sophisticated crypto laundering operation was executed following the $292 million hack of Kelp DAO on April 18. The attack, attributed to the North Korean Lazarus group, began with anonymous infrastructure preparation using Tornado Cash to fund wallets untraceably. The hacker exploited a vulnerability in Kelp’s cross-chain bridge, stealing 116,500 rsETH. To avoid crashing the market, the attacker used Aave and Compound as laundering tools—depositing the stolen rsETH as collateral to borrow $190 million in clean, liquid ETH. This move triggered a bank run on Aave, causing an $8 billion drop in TVL. After consolidating funds, the attacker fragmented them across hundreds of wallets to evade detection. A major breakpoint was THORChain, where over $460 million in volume—30 times its usual activity—was processed in 24 hours, converting ETH into Bitcoin. This shift to Bitcoin’s UTXO model exponentially increased tracing complexity by shattering funds into countless untraceable fragments. The final destination was Tron-based USDT, the primary channel for illicit crypto flows. From there, funds were cashed out via OTC brokers in China and Southeast Asia, using unlicensed underground banks and UnionPay networks outside Western sanctions scope. Ultimately, the laundered money supports North Korea’s weapons programs, which rely heavily on crypto hacking for foreign currency. The incident underscores structural challenges in DeFi: its openness, composability, and lack of central control make such laundering not just possible, but inherently difficult to prevent.

Google and Amazon Simultaneously Invest Heavily in a Competitor: The Most Absurd Business Logic of the AI Era Is Becoming Reality

In a span of four days, Amazon announced an additional $25 billion investment, and Google pledged up to $40 billion—both direct competitors pouring over $65 billion into the same AI startup, Anthropic. Rather than a typical venture capital move, this signals the latest escalation in the cloud wars. The core of the deal is not equity but compute pre-orders: Anthropic must spend the majority of these funds on AWS and Google Cloud services and chips, effectively locking in massive future compute consumption. This reflects a shift in cloud market dynamics—enterprises now choose cloud providers based on which hosts the best AI models, not just price or stability. With OpenAI deeply tied to Microsoft, Anthropic’s Claude has become the only viable strategic asset for Google and Amazon to remain competitive. Anthropic’s annualized revenue has surged to $30 billion, and it is expanding into verticals like biotech, positioning itself as a cross-industry AI infrastructure layer. However, this funding comes with constraints: Anthropic’s independence is challenged as it balances two rival investors, its safety-first narrative faces pressure from regulatory scrutiny, and its path to IPO introduces new financial pressures. Globally, this accelerates a "tri-polar" closed-loop structure in AI infrastructure, with Microsoft-OpenAI, Google-Anthropic, and Amazon-Anthropic forming exclusive model-cloud alliances. In contrast, China’s landscape differs—investments like Alibaba and Tencent backing open-source model firm DeepSeek reflect a more decoupled approach, though closed-source models from major cloud providers still dominate. The $65 billion bet is ultimately about securing a seat at the table in an AI-defined future—where missing the model layer means losing the cloud war.
