Microsoft has announced two features for its Copilot Researcher tool — Critique and Council. These features enable GPT models from OpenAI and Claude from Anthropic to work simultaneously on a single task to enhance accuracy. Introducing Critique, a new multi-model deep research system in M365 Copilot.You can use multiple models together to generate optimal responses and reports. pic.twitter.com/m4RlQmCKzs— Satya Nadella (@satyanadella) March 30, 2026 Critique is a new multimodal deep analysis system designed specifically for tackling complex research processes. The tool employs a combination of neural networks from leading labs. “One model guides the generation phase, planning the task, iterating through information retrieval, and creating an initial draft. The other is responsible for verification and refinement, acting as an expert reviewer,” Microsoft stated. Meanwhile, LLM can switch their roles. The company emphasized that all modern AI research tools operate similarly, with no one verifying their work. Critique aims to address issues of hallucinations, citation errors, and the provision of false or inaccurate statements. In the DRACO test, which covers 100 complex research tasks across 10 domains, Critique scored 57.4 points, while Claude Opus 4.6 scored 42.7. Source: Microsoft. The second feature, Council, employs a different approach to problem-solving. It runs GPT and Claude in parallel and presents their full reports side by side. Then, a third model-judge reads both responses and writes a summary, explaining where the AI models agree and where their arguments diverge. In Critique, LLMs collaborate with each other, whereas in Council, they compete. Critique is the standard mode in Researcher, while Council must be selected from the menu. Both features are available to users registered in the Microsoft Frontier program. Back in March, the corporation introduced the AI agent Cowork for performing complex tasks in Microsoft 365. It is capable of interacting with ecosystem applications like Outlook, Teams, Excel, PowerPoint, and SharePoint.

Total crypto market capitalisation ($2.32 trillion) has been largely unchanged. Since the start of US and Israeli strikes on Iran, digital gold has traded in a $65,000–$73,000 range, sold on each escalation but not breaking structurally lower. Equities, by contrast, are forming a persistent downtrend. However, Adler Jr. warned that bitcoin’s relative resilience does not mean it has fully decoupled from risk assets. Although the short‑term link between the coin and the S&P 500 has weakened, its performance relative to the index continues to deteriorate. Bitcoin is not decoupling from equities. It's just getting weaker.New ☕️ Adler AM 👇https://t.co/ME15XFsg8j pic.twitter.com/XIjiU25oof— Axel 💎🙌 Adler Jr (@AxelAdlerJr) March 31, 2026 “The formal correlation between bitcoin and the S&P has now become a less reliable guide, but relative performance still indicates that the market views bitcoin as a higher‑risk asset with greater drawdown amplitude than the S&P 500,” he said. The analyst believes it is too early to call a trend change until bitcoin’s ratio to the index stabilises and begins to recover. That means the coin’s current resilience may be temporary. Without an improvement in relative performance, a durable reversal higher is unlikely. On March 30, digital gold fell to $65,112, setting a new low since late February.

The US Department of Labor proposed new rules for 401(k) pension plans. The agency plans to allow the inclusion of alternative assets, including cryptocurrencies. The initiative aims to reduce regulatory uncertainty. The responsibility of managers will now depend on the quality of asset evaluation rather than their final profitability. Fiduciaries will have the freedom to choose assets, provided they conduct a thorough analysis of fees, liquidity, and potential risks. The new guidance lifts the restrictions of 2022. Previously, authorities warned against including digital assets in pension plans due to high volatility. According to Deputy Secretary of Labor Keith Sonderling, the agency intends to maintain neutrality and refrain from prioritizing specific instruments. The document does not directly promote cryptocurrencies but creates a "safe harbor" concept for market participants. Investment funds will be able to add Bitcoin, real estate, and other non-standard products without the threat of lawsuits. Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer noted that diversification will support innovation. Digital assets will help hedge inflation risks and increase portfolio returns for young investors focused on the long term. The initiative's development also involved the SEC and the US Treasury. "Mined in America" Senators Bill Cassidy and Cynthia Lummis introduced the Mined in America Act. The document proposes to reform the US mining industry, create a strategic Bitcoin reserve, and localize equipment production. The Department of Commerce will establish a voluntary Mined in America certification system for data centers and pools that meet security standards. Program participants will be required to gradually phase out foreign equipment by the end of the decade. Currently, the US controls about 38% of the global hashrate of Bitcoin. Meanwhile, 97% of specialized devices are produced by Chinese companies, including Bitmain and MicroBT. The authors of the bill view such dependence as a threat to national and economic security. Source: BitcoinMiningStock. The National Institute of Standards and Technology will be tasked with reducing the imbalance. Additional funding will not be required—support for American equipment developers will be integrated into existing government programs. The bill considers cryptocurrency mining as an effective tool for managing power grids. Certified miners will gain access to government funding for projects that: absorb excess renewable energy; help balance the grid load; utilize methane from landfills and oil fields. The initiative has already received support from the Satoshi Action Fund. The document also legally establishes the creation of a strategic Bitcoin reserve under the Treasury, formalizing the relevant executive order by US President Donald Trump. To replenish the reserves, authorities will develop a "budget-neutral" mechanism. Revenues from staking and airdrops related to other state-confiscated digital assets will be directed to Bitcoin purchases. Additionally, a tax incentive is introduced: certified American miners will be able to sell mined coins directly to the government in exchange for exemption from capital gains tax. This is expected to create an incentive to replenish the state reserve at a discount. Back in March, it was reported that the US mortgage agency Fannie Mae will begin accepting digital assets as collateral.

Bluesky users have reacted negatively to the new AI-based service Attie, which enables the creation of custom algorithms for social networks and the development of personalized feeds within the AT Protocol ecosystem. Attie made its debut at the ATmosphere conference. Since then, approximately 141,000 users have blocked the Attie account on the social network. Only U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance has more blocks, with over 180,000. Top 5 accounts by blocks on Bluesky. Source: Clearsky. The AI service surpassed the White House account. Attie has only 1,500 followers, meaning it has been blocked by 94 times more users than those who subscribed. Bluesky attracted a large portion of its audience (currently 43 million registered accounts) as an alternative to platform X. For many, the platform became a refuge from more mainstream social networks where AI is ubiquitous. The launch of the AI solution Attie likely felt like a betrayal to users. Bluesky is also criticized for not adding basic features like sending images via direct messages. Source: Bluesky. Former Bluesky CEO Jay Graber (now Director of Innovation) and her team began working on Attie several months ago. She believes that today, major platforms use AI for their own interests, aiming to increase user time in apps, gather data, and control algorithms. “We believe AI should serve people, not platforms. An open protocol gives this power. You can create your own feeds, design software as you wish, and extract important information from the noise,” Graber emphasized. Back in February, Meta introduced the AI feature Dear Algo, allowing Threads users to personalize content recommendation algorithms.

Google Quantum AI has shocked the crypto community after publishing research that drastically slashes the hardware and time requirements needed for quantum computers to break blockchain encryption.

At Xi'an Jiaotong University, Professor Xu Guanghua's team has devised a method to control a robot dog using thought power. Mind-controlled robot dogs? They're real now at China's Xi'an Jiaotong University. Just think "forward" — and the robot dog moves. Professor Xu Guanghua's team made it happen with the non-invasive brain-computer interface technology. #FutureChina pic.twitter.com/3pIL7FffRv— China Xinhua Sci-Tech (@XHscitech) March 29, 2026 The solution is based on non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. It captures neural activity signals using special sensors, allowing precise control of mechanical devices. Xu described the system as a kind of "remote control in the mind." When a user forms an intention like "move forward," the brain generates corresponding EEG signals. The system collects and decodes them, identifies the intended command, converts it into a control instruction, and sends it to the robot dog, which executes the task. At the current stage, the solution supports 11 basic commands such as moving forward, backward, and turning. The recognition accuracy exceeds 95%, and the delay between thought and action is about one second. Invasive BCI technologies offer high accuracy but require surgical implantation in the brain. This carries certain risks of injury, infection, immune rejection, and signal quality degradation over time. Guanghua's approach is considered safer, more economical, and user-friendly. However, non-invasive signals are less precise, complicating continuous and fine real-time control. The team decided to apply a hybrid approach, employing a human-machine collaboration model. "Humans are responsible only for formulating high-level intentions like 'where to go.' Meanwhile, high-precision, high-speed, and repetitive tasks such as autonomous navigation, environmental perception, dynamic obstacle avoidance, and movement execution are performed by the machines' own intelligent systems," said Guanghua. This approach enhances the efficiency and stability of the solution, allowing it to overcome limitations associated with the accuracy of non-invasive signals. The scientist noted that the development of BCI requires regular breakthroughs in basic technologies and deep integration with advanced fields such as artificial intelligence and autonomous navigation. According to Guanghua, the robot dog could become a valuable assistant for people with disabilities. Earlier in March, the ZGC Forum was held in Beijing from the 25th to the 29th, where developers showcased a wide range of BCI products—from specialized chips to rehabilitation systems.

A quantum computer may require fewer than 500,000 physical qubits to breach the security of Bitcoin and Ethereum, a figure 20 times lower than previous estimates. This conclusion was reached by Google researchers. The experts devised two schemes for testing on a superconducting cryptographically relevant quantum computer. One scheme utilized 1,200 logical qubits and 90 million Toffoli gates, while the other employed about 1,450 logical qubits and 70 million gates. According to the company’s estimates, assuming standard equipment capabilities, computations would take between nine to 12 minutes. This timeframe fits within Bitcoin's block time (10 minutes), making an "on-spend attack" feasible—a hypothetical threat where an attacker derives a private key from a public one revealed during a transaction. "We aim to draw attention to this issue and provide the cryptocurrency community with recommendations to enhance security and stability while it is still possible," Google noted. Additional Challenges for Ethereum The researchers also warned that the account model of the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization is structurally vulnerable to "at-rest attacks." Unlike Bitcoin, this threat does not require a time window. Once an Ethereum wallet sends a transaction, its public key remains on the blockchain. An attacker with a quantum computer can compute the private key from the public one at any time. "This is a systemic, unavoidable vulnerability that cannot be mitigated by user behavior without a network-wide transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC)," the experts stated. Google estimated that the 1,000 largest vulnerable addresses (holding ~20.5 million ETH) could be breached in less than nine days. Ethereum researcher and co-author Justin Drake commented on the findings, stating that his confidence in the arrival of the so-called Q-Day by 2032 "has significantly increased." Today is a monumentous day for quantum computing and cryptography. Two breakthrough papers just landed (links in next tweet). Both papers improve Shor's algorithm, infamous for cracking RSA and elliptic curve cryptography. The two results compound, optimising separate layers of…— Justin Drake (@drakefjustin) March 31, 2026 "I estimate the probability of a quantum computer capable of recovering an ECDSA secp256k1 private key from a public key by 2032 to be at least 10%. Although the creation of a cryptographically significant quantum computer by 2030 seems unlikely, preparations for this scenario should begin now," he wrote. Google also urged a swift transition to post-quantum cryptography. Researchers described PQC as a "proven path" to security that will bolster confidence in the long-term viability of the digital economy. Short-term recommendations include avoiding the reuse of vulnerable addresses and considering measures for lost coins. Earlier, Ethereum Foundation promised to protect the network from the quantum threat by 2029. Developers will implement four hard forks. Castle Island Ventures partner Nic Carter supported the team's efforts. He described the Bitcoin community's approach to the looming issue as the least effective.
