gorodenkoff/iStock via Getty Images The uncertainty about the US-Iran fragile ceasefire, which President Trump has said is on "life support," is weighing on risk-taking appetites today. Brent and WTI are up over $3, and bonds and stocks have been sold. The US dollar ( DXY ) is firmer against the G10 currencies but the Norwegian krone. Most emerging market currencies are lower. Ahead of the Xi-Trump meeting later this week, the PBOC continued to gradually lower the dollar’s reference rate. Treasury Secretary Bessent is in Tokyo, and the media reports he "understands" Japanese exchange rate policy. This is a far cry from having the Treasury Department use the Federal Reserve to check prices as it did in January. The dollar reached a new five-session high against the yen. The US reports April CPI today. The headline rate is seen rising to around 3.7% from 3.3%. And as Warsh’s confirmation process continued to make progress, the swaps market has boosted the chances of a rate hike this year to around 31%, the highest since last March. Still, the other major central banks are expected to raise rates sooner and by more.

A second Qatari liquefied natural gas tanker appeared to have exited the Strait of Hormuz, after a shipment successfully transited the chokepoint over the weekend. The Mihzem sailed out of the Persian Gulf and is currently in the Gulf of Oman, ship-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg show. The Singapore-flagged vessel is indicating Pakistan as its destination, and draft readings show it’s fully laden. The Mihzem previously stopped sending positioning signals, an increasingly common move reflecting security concerns in the region as the Iran war drags on and a blockade of Hormuz persists. At least two tankers that loaded at Abu Dhabi National Oil Co.’s Das Island facility recently went dark to carry shipments out of the waterway, Bloomberg reported earlier this month. During the course of the conflict, vessel tracking has also been complicated by spoofing — where electronic interference can falsify the apparent position of a ship. Over the weekend, a tanker called Al Kharaitiyat , which loaded LNG at Qatar’s Ras Laffan export plant earlier this month, exited the strait and sailed into the Gulf of Oman, tracking data showed. QatarEnergy didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on Tuesday. Read More: Qatar Asks LNG Ships at Export Hub to Go Dark in Safety Push

图片来源：ILLUSTRATION BY PHILIP SMITH FOR FORBES 尽管名字里有个“Janitor”（意为门房、清洁工），但这个网站并不销售生产力智能体或企业办公助手。它提供的是交互式情色内容，供浪漫奇幻爱好者与聊天机器人玩角色扮演，并将此做成一门吸引250万日活用户的生意。 2024年搬到北卡罗来纳州一座新城市后，曲奇（化名）感受到异乡生活的压力。丈夫因工作频繁出差，她独自全职照顾如今四岁的女儿，感到“身心俱疲”。由于初来乍到，一个熟人都没有，她开始使用一个叫Janitor AI的社交聊天机器人网站，其特色便是无限制且常含露骨内容的奇幻角色扮演。曲奇对《福布斯》说，这里成了她“不错的情绪释放出口”。 曲奇的母亲当年收藏了大量奇幻和浪漫小说，她就在这样的熏陶下长大，如今，Janitor AI成了她逃离日复一日枯燥生活的便捷途径。每当女儿午睡或是晚上安顿好后，曲奇就开始撰写详尽且常含露骨设定的提示词，塑造出一个个“慢热氛围感”奇幻角色，比如奉行裸体主义的狼人室友查理，身高七英尺、喜欢本地破旧小酒吧的食尸鬼马库斯。她还虚构了科罗拉多小镇格林伍德，人类与超自然“半人族”在此共处。小镇笼罩在各色浪漫故事与怪物奇谈之下，但也暗藏污浊：一座新落成的教堂，背地里却在做着器官贩卖的勾当，各类藏污纳垢的酒吧则是诱人上钩的场所。 像曲奇这样的Janitor AI忠实日活用户有250万之多。平台称其总用户量超1500万，月访问量达1亿人次。数字市场情报机构Similarweb数据显示，Janitor AI已是全美第十大热门消费级AI应用。 如今越来越多的公司推出社交聊天机器人，可设定虚拟人设，也能模拟真人形象，Janitor AI便是其中之一。这类产品能提供极强的沉浸感，市场情报公司Sensor Tower数据显示，AI角色扮演类头部应用用户日均使用时长达78分钟，几乎和刷TikTok的时间持平。 也许在人们的想象中，“AI罗曼史”就是木讷男性想依靠AI填补情感亲密需求，但Janitor AI的用户群体画像打破了这种刻板印象。平台估计，其70%至80%的用户为女性。 另外，也不要简单将AI言情创作归为色情内容——尽管其内容确实“辣眼”，不宜在工作间隙观赏。Janitor AI对自身的定位为娱乐产品，类似“AI领域的HBO”，或是交互式小说平台，读者同时也能身兼创作者...
