     3️⃣ The latest AI buzzword? #Distillation
     - #OpenSource AI models are rapidly advancing—by copying closed models.
     - Companies like OpenAI & Google hate it, but they can’t stop it.
     - The big question: Is open-source really catching up to proprietary AI?

     2️⃣ #Crypto platforms sneak into sports betting
     - Crypto.com & Kalshi offer “swaps” on the Super Bowl, dodging gambling regs.
     - “We’re not sportsbooks, we swear”—but regulators aren’t buying it.
     - Could create an unregulated, highly addictive gambling loophole.

     1️⃣ UK’s secret demand for #iCloud backdoor
     - A gov order under the “Snoopers’ Charter” demands Apple weaken iCloud encryption.
     - If implemented, users won’t even know the backdoor exists.
     - A backdoor for one == a backdoor for all.

     Mr. Bill repeated this.
