Great to see ML applied to detecting image manipulation, hopefully we've a while yet before generative models can create publication quality images!

Crypto is designed to funnel money from information-poor retail traders to insiders and whales. And one way that happens is because retail serves as exit liquidity for industry insiders who bought at a discount and bragged about it on their podcast.
