“We were thrilled with the turnout for our Ai4 2023 event,” said Michael Weiss, Co-Founder, Ai4. “This 2023 event clearly established Ai4 as industry’s leading AI conference and provided our community with an unrivaled opportunity to learn about the latest advances in AI, network with other professionals in the field, and get hands-on experience with AI technologies.”
Marcus Jecklin, Co-founder of Ai4 said, “It’s amazing. Ai4 began in 2018 at a small boutique hotel in Brooklyn, NY with 300 attendees. Now, five years later, we’ve built the world’s leading artificial intelligence conference with over 2500 attendees, 100 sponsors, and 250 speakers. We’re now certainly the largest gathering to unite both business and technical leaders of AI. What’s even crazier is that we’re still growing by over 100% each year. Ai4 2023 was over twice the size of Ai4 2022, and we expect to nearly double in size again next year for Ai4 2024 with 4500 expected attendees. We’re prepared for that growth. We’ve expanded our floor plan next year to include over 200,000 square feet of activated space, which is roughly twice what we had this past year. We’ve also expanded and enhanced our content sessions and networking experiences for next year too. If you loved Ai4 2023, you’re going to be blown away by Ai4 2024.”

A Conversation about the Intricacies of Centralized Digital Currency: From CBDC Development to Federal Overreach & Global Strategy
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico, September 5, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Christian Briggs, Founder and CEO of Hard Asset Management, Inc., recently featured as a distinguished guest on the “On A Good Fight” radio show with host Jameson Haygood. The illuminating session dissected the nuanced facets of the rapidly evolving world of digital currencies.
LISTEN TO THE EPISODE:
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hard-asset-money-show/id1576564099?i=1000626397388
A primary focus of the discussion was the marked contrast between decentralized digital currencies, such as Bitcoin, and the centralized Federal Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). Briggs shed light on the central role of the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) based out of Switzerland – often dubbed as the “bank of banks.” BIS has strategically orchestrated a white paper detailing the architecture of the imminent CBDC rollout across nations and the subsequent interconnection of these systems.
One of the significant revelations from Briggs was the partnership with Ripple (XRP) in supporting this vast payment network. Close to 50 nations, as of now, have pledged to integrate the Ripple platform for their digital currency initiatives. Remarkably, data from the World Economic Forum (WEF) highlights the blistering pace of CBDC development: in June 2018, no country was reported to be involved in CBDC R&D. Fast forward to today, over 100 nations have plunged headfirst into CBDC projects.
Christian Briggs stressed the profound implications of such a centralized system. “The rapid embrace of CBDCs globally offers governments a lens into individual financial activities at an unprecedented scale. This isn’t merely a financial revolution; it’s a shift that could significantly challenge our civil liberties,” he commented.
Highlighting a statement from March 2023, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell affirmed the need for congressional authorization for the Federal Reserve to release a CBDC. Contradictorily, Powell also hinted that certain CBDC forms might bypass legislative oversight entirely. Validating these claims, by July 20th, the Federal Reserve had already initiated “FedNow” – a foundational step toward a U.S. central bank digital currency. Notably, this pilot program has garnered the participation of over 120 banks and payment service providers.
Hard Asset Management, Inc. consistently showcases its dedication and expertise in the world of rare coins and precious metals. As the financial landscape shifts and evolves, the firm remains steadfast in its mission to provide clients with unrivaled knowledge and opportunities in the rare coin market. Their unwavering commitment to excellence and client service solidifies Hard Asset Management, Inc.’s esteemed position in the industry.
