I am honored to step into the role of CEO for https://t.co/86vmETckwu, effective immediately.
Under @blackbit 's leadership, https://t.co/86vmETckwu has grown into one of the fastest growing AI companies in the world.
Going forward, we will continue to execute on the vision that Ahmad set forth when he founded https://t.co/86vmETckwu - to become the world’s largest AI compute network and bring AI to the world. As of today, the network has onboarded approximately 20K cluster-ready GPUs and is serving end-to-end AI inference and model training workloads across AI companies like WonderAI, Krea and Leonardo.
For the last 6 months, I have worked closely with Ahmad, the https://t.co/86vmETckwu team, and our incredible roster of backers to streamline the day to day operations of https://t.co/86vmETckwu as the COO.
https://t.co/86vmETckwu’s operations have been transitioned to the leadership team under my oversight and we will be sharing the full scope of https://t.co/86vmETckwu leadership team changes over the coming days.
What’s next? We are excited to launch $IO on June 11th at 12:00 UTC and to continue accelerating https://t.co/86vmETckwu’s growth post launch.
The launch of the token ushers in a new phase of growth for the network. We remain unwavering in our mission to build the world’s largest decentralized AI compute network and expect to focus heavily on acquiring and retaining suppliers and onboarding new customers.
AI compute spend is on track to be on the order of $100B in 2024, and yet there remain significant and structural gaps in access to existing resources. https://t.co/86vmETckwu’s vision is a world where AI products of the coming decade are built on open, permissionless platforms that are accessible to all. We're excited to continue building the internet of GPUs.
I want to thank the community, our partners, our investors, and the https://t.co/86vmETckwu team for supporting the project as we start this next chapter in the company’s journey.
