A recent study by the Bitcoin Policy Institute found that 22 out of 36 AI models favored Bitcoin as their primary currency tool in simulated economic scenarios, while none selected fiat currency as their top choice. The research included leading models from AI labs such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, xAI, and MiniMax, highlighting the consistency of preferences across different systems, with Anthropic models showing the strongest inclination for Bitcoin at 68%. The study aimed to eliminate bias by allowing the models to choose their monetary instruments freely, thereby reflecting patterns from their training data rather than making real-world predictions.
