China just passed the U.S. in open model downloads for the first time 👀
New data from Economies of Open Intelligence led by @huggingface policy team & community collaborators, presents some notable observations:
✨ Developer adoption
In 2025, Chinese model developers saw higher global adoption for the first time, driven by the rapid rise of @deepseek_ai and @Alibaba_Qwen.
✨ The “Sino-Multimodal Period”(late 2024–present)
China’s share of downloads reached 17.1%, surpassing the U.S., with DeepSeek + Qwen accounting for 14% of recent activity.
This period also brings larger, more quantized, and expanding multimodal models such as Wan2.1.
✨ Organizational patterns
China’s open model development is more industry-driven (similar to the U.S.), while the EU has more university, nonprofit, and community-led contributors.
fyi - this analysis based on 851k models, 200+ attributes, and 2.2B downloads.
Who is winning the open AI race?
Our new study "Economies of Open Intelligence" maps 2.2B @huggingface downloads across 851k models (2020→2025).
1) Power is rebalancing (US big tech ↓; China + community ↑)
2) Models got big & efficient (MoE, quant, multimodal surge)
3) Intermediaries now matter (adapters/quantizers steer usage)
4) Transparency is slipping

🚨The White House just launched the Genesis Mission — a Manhattan Project for AI
The Department of Energy will build a national AI platform on top of U.S. supercomputers and federal science data, train scientific foundation models, and run AI agents + robotic labs to automate experiments in biotech, critical materials, nuclear fission/fusion, space, quantum, and semiconductors.
Let’s unpack what this order actually builds, and how it could rewire the AI, energy, and science landscape over the next decade:
For all the AI creators who use Automatic11 SDweb-ui, I strongly recommend that you do so.
I had always updated the ui by doing git pulls but I had a lot of memory problems (CUDA out of memory).
I decided to create a new folder and reinstall the ui
Exciting news just in 🔥!
Neuroni AI is thrilled to announce we will be integrating "Sora by OpenAI" for video generation into our ecosystem the moment it becomes available. And guess what? We're offering this incredible tool absolutely FREE for our token holders!
Why are we doing this? Because we believe "Sora" represents a groundbreaking leap forward in video development technology, and it aligns perfectly with Neuroni #AI's vision without competing with our development goals.
We're passionate about ensuring our community gets first dibs on this advanced technology. Stay tuned for the future of video creation, powered by "#Sora" and brought to you by #Neuroni AI!

I am convinced VIG will be a $100M+ asset.
Community owned synthetics are going to be multi-trillion asset class collateralized by Crypto.
Crypto commodity synthetics is the elephant in room.
