Meta plans to monitor employee mouse and keystrokes to train AI models using internal operations.
Odaily Planet Daily reports that Meta has found a new source of training data for its AI models: its own employees. The company plans to use data collected from its employees' mouse movements and keystrokes to build more powerful and efficient artificial intelligence. A company spokesperson stated, "If we want to build intelligent agents that help people complete daily tasks using computers, our models need real-world examples to understand how people actually use computers—such as mouse movements, button clicks, and interacting with dropdown menus. To this end, we will be releasing an internal tool to capture these inputs on specific applications to help train our models. We have implemented appropriate safeguards to protect sensitive content, and this data will not be used for any other purpose." (TechCrunch)

US lawmaker: I'd rather Trump play golf than go to the Situation Room
Odaily Planet Daily reports that New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez stated she would rather see Trump "on the golf course" than in the Oval Office. This statement comes after Trump issued several strong threats against Iran. Cortez told reporters, "You know, obviously this guy is terrible at golf, but in a sense, we've seen some of the most important military decision-makers in the country trying to keep him away from major decisions. So, in a way, you'd even prefer this guy on the golf course to in the Oval Office. But this also raises some questions about the 25th Amendment, which suggests that if Trump is deemed untrustworthy in the Situation Room and in handling contingencies, then he's unfit to be president."

Singapore will optimize regulations on crypto capital: public blockchain assets may no longer be uniformly classified as high-risk.
Odaily Planet Daily reports that the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has released a consultation paper proposing a more favorable regulatory capital guideline for the handling of crypto assets on permissionless blockchains (commonly known as public blockchains) before the implementation of the Basel crypto asset capital rules. The Basel crypto asset capital rules reportedly divide crypto assets into two groups: Group 1 includes tokenized traditional assets and stablecoins, subject to lower capital requirements; Group 2 includes crypto assets that do not meet the above conditions. The MAS intends to abandon the practice of uniformly classifying permissionless blockchain crypto assets into Group 2, allowing them to be classified as Group 1 crypto assets with lower risk weights and more lenient prudential requirements, provided a series of principled requirements are met. This aims to achieve regulatory technology neutrality. Specifically, banks registered in Singapore must not have their exposure to permissionless blockchain crypto assets classified as Group 1 crypto assets exceeding 2% of their Tier 1 capital, and if such issuance creates liabilities at the bank level, the issuance size must not exceed 5% of Tier 1 capital.

The Clarity Act may move to hearings in May and a vote in July, with a probability of passing by the end of the year of approximately 50%.
According to Odaily Planet Daily, the legislative process for the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, currently being pushed forward by the US Senate, has been delayed for several months, but a path to progress remains possible despite the tight legislative schedule. Sources indicate that the bill's original April passage is now virtually impossible, and it may enter the Senate committee review stage as early as May. If a Senate vote can be completed before July, the bill still has a chance to pass in 2026. However, some analysts point out that given the limited legislative window and the intertwining of multiple political issues, the probability of the bill passing in 2026 is approximately 50%. Further significant disagreements could lead to further delays or even its shelving. (CoinDesk)

Family members of U.S. mob boss John Gotti sentenced for cryptocurrency-related fraud.
According to Odaily Planet Daily, the U.S. Department of Justice has announced that Carmine Agnello, grandson of mob boss John Gotti, has been sentenced to 15 months in prison for defrauding approximately $1.1 million in COVID-19 relief funds and investing some of them in cryptocurrency businesses. Prosecutors stated that between April 2020 and November 2021, Agnello obtained multiple relief loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) through false declarations, claiming they were for his auto parts and recycling business operations. He actually misappropriated the funds for personal use, with approximately $420,000 invested in cryptocurrency-related ventures. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York stated that this act occurred during the peak of the pandemic and constitutes a serious misuse of government aid funds. Agnello is expected to begin serving his sentence on July 1st. Furthermore, official data shows that COVID-19 relief fund fraud is a serious problem in the United States, with the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) estimating that approximately $135 billion (about 15% of the total) flowed into fraudulent activities.

Trump: Iran wants the Straits open so they can earn $500 million a day.
Odaily Planet Daily reports that US President Trump stated that Iran does not want to close the Strait of Hormuz; they want it open so they can earn $500 million daily, and closing it would mean losing that money.

Four days ago, someone approached me saying, "Iran wants to open the strait immediately." But if we do that, it will never be possible to reach an agreement with Iran unless we destroy other parts of their country, including their leader. (Jin Shi)

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Apple's next CEO, John Turners, faces a major challenge upon taking office: retaining top talent during a period of historic personnel change. After several years of relative calm, Apple recently experienced a wave of departures, affecting both senior executives and junior engineers.
