Tamara Zubatiy, Founder & CEO, Vericrypt

One Dozen Rabbits Podcast #17

Vericrypt uses machine learning and AI to help identify the emotional content and bias of news. The plan is for it to run autonomously on a distributed system so it will be a completely independent guidepost to news trust. We spoke to Tamara Zubatiy, CEO of Vericrypt, about how her team is building tools to fight back against media and data manipulation. To do this, they’ve studied objective language, and figured out how to separate information from stylistic overlays that are designed to manipulate.

She also asks the rhetorical question, why are we still talking about the gender gap?  [...]  read more

Morvareed Salehpour

One Dozen Rabbits #7

Blockchain attorney Morvareed Salehpour takes us into the rabbit hole on the Uniform Regulation of Virtual Currency Businesses Act. Why is this important? After all, crypto is borderless! That is true, but U.S. businesses have to comply with federal and state laws – which can be a patchwork of different regulations, sometimes without much guidance as to how they should be applied.  [...]  read more
