Shiba Inu's price hovered around $0.0000063 on Thursday, marking a 4% increase over the past two weeks. According to NS3.AI, this rise comes despite two significant developments that were expected to bolster the token's standing. In March 2026, the SEC officially recognized SHIB as a digital commodity under a revised framework. Additionally, T. Rowe Price included Shiba Inu in an amended multi-coin ETF filing. However, market interest in the token remained subdued despite these supportive measures.

Sahara AI has announced the development of an AI engineering agent for Motherson Group, a $20 billion industrial giant. According to Odaily, Sahara AI's agent integrates Motherson's engineering standards and 3D models into a unified intelligent knowledge base. The agent, which can be embedded in design software, is capable of real-time 3D part recognition, automatic standard comparison, and providing modification suggestions. In production testing, it achieved an accuracy rate of 97%. The next phase will see the introduction of a fully autonomous agent that can control design software through natural language.

Tether's artificial intelligence research team has unveiled QVAC MedPsy, a new medical language model designed to operate directly on smartphones, wearable devices, and other devices with limited processing capabilities. According to Foresight News, this development aims to enhance accessibility and functionality for medical applications on portable technology.

CoinStats, initially a portfolio tracker, is advancing towards an AI-driven crypto research product, according to BeInCrypto. Founder and CEO Narek Gevorgyan highlighted the need for domain-specific AI in crypto, emphasizing that general-purpose models fall short in handling the complexities of crypto research. CoinStats AI utilizes specialized sub-agents to provide real-time data, reducing hallucination risks and enhancing research accuracy. The platform offers modes like Deep Research, Backtesting, and Fast Mode to cater to different research needs. CoinStats also prioritizes privacy with its Private Mode, ensuring user data remains secure.

Tether AI Research Group has released its next-generation medical AI model, QVAC MedPsy, which boasts the ability to run locally on low-computing-power hardware such as smartphones and wearable devices without relying on cloud servers. It also outperforms several larger-scale state-of-the-art (SOTA) models in multiple medical benchmark tests. Official data shows that the 1.7 billion parameter version of QVAC MedPsy achieved an average score of 62.62 in seven closed-loop medical benchmark tests, outperforming Google's MedGemma-1.5-4B-it by 11.42 points, despite being less than half the size of the latter. In real-world clinical tests such as HealthBench Hard, the model even surpassed MedGemma 27B, which has nearly 16 times the number of parameters. Furthermore, the 4 billion parameter version achieved an average score of 70.54, outperforming several large models nearly seven times larger in multiple medical inference evaluations. Tether states that this model achieves "high performance with a small model" through post-training medical inference optimization, reinforcement learning, and training with high-quality medical data. Compared to traditional cloud-based AI architectures, QVAC MedPsy significantly reduces inference costs. Its 4 billion parameter version generates an average of approximately 909 tokens, far lower than the 2953 tokens of similar systems, resulting in lower latency and computational costs. The model also offers a GGUF quantized version, suitable for local deployment on mobile and edge devices. Paolo Ardoino stated that the core goal of this model is to improve model efficiency, rather than simply increasing the parameter scale, enabling medical AI to run directly on hospital systems or terminal devices, thereby avoiding the uploading of sensitive medical data to the cloud.
