Liquid Compute CEO Ronit Jain published an article introducing the hedging of computing power prices. Purchasing computing power, holding GPUs, or lending based on this has exposed them to computing power price fluctuations. Hedging is a cash-settled contract that locks in future prices against an index without the need to transfer GPUs.Companies can buy forwards to fix the cost of next year's capacity as a budget item while still being able to purchase from any supplier. Neocloud can sell forwards to convert uncontracted hours into fixed cash flow, making it easier for lenders to provide loans based on this. Regarding the residual value of sale-leaseback, recent forwards can be rolled over when entering a tradable range, or put options can be bought on forwards, with more liquid near-term options available to pay for the option premium.Hedging locks in prices rather than quantities, and does not completely match actual rates, nor is it free: it requires giving up favorable price movements or paying option premiums. Legally, it usually requires signing an ISDA Master Agreement with the counterparty, obtaining permission for the settlement index, and determining the ratio of hedging exposure.

Anthropic's economic team builds models to analyze the impact of AI on employment, growth, and unemployment in the United States. The model views the economy as a combination of tasks based on the U.S. Department of Labor's O*NET classification, where AI can keep tasks unchanged, enhance, automate, or create new tasks. The U.S. economy is described as having a task instance value of over $30 trillion.Three scenarios depend on AI capabilities and adoption speed: the moderate scenario is similar to the internet, with U.S. GDP increasing by 1.6% by 2030 ($34.1 trillion in 2025 prices), labor share at 59.4%, and capital share at 40.6%; in the substantial scenario, AI can perform half of knowledge work, GDP increases by 8.3% ($36.3 trillion), and wages for knowledge workers remain roughly stable, with a labor share of 56.1%; in the extreme scenario, AI is much more efficient in the vast majority of knowledge work and completes it almost entirely autonomously, with GDP increasing by 32.4% ($44.4 trillion), wages for knowledge workers dropping by over 10%, a labor share of 45.2%, and an unemployment rate exceeding typical recession levels.A survey conducted in August with over 10,000 Americans showed that typical responses were close to the substantial scenario (2030 GDP about 10% higher, unemployment rate about 5%), with about 10% of respondents nearing the extreme scenario. GDP increases in all scenarios, and transformative scenarios require more job transitions. The page provides a technical report and an interactive explorer.

Research institution Shoal Research released a report stating that bots account for about 60% of HTML content HTTP requests on the Cloudflare network, while humans account for 38.2%. Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince previously predicted that bot traffic would surpass human traffic by 2027, and later announced that the growth of agent traffic has already led to bots exceeding human traffic.The report states that AI applications keep users in chat interfaces and summarize content, rather than redirecting them back to the original site. AI crawlers have a much higher crawl-to-return ratio than Googlebot, with ClaudeBot averaging about 4,200 pages crawled per return visit over the past year. Pew research shows that AI summaries have reduced click-through rates from 15% to 8%.The robots.txt and content exchange traffic model are difficult to maintain. Litigation and private authorization are stopgap measures. Pay-per-request is divided into a closed market with keys and open protocols using HTTP 402 and stablecoins like x402 and MPP. Most websites still offer free access or block it.
