Talking @bitmind The trust layer for automation to a full house at the louvre @proofoftalk

[Proof of Talk @proofoftalk]

NOW on the Second Stage at the Louvre: a lineup of individual Subnet Keynotes from some of the most exciting teams building on Bittensor.

→ @micaelabazo, @metanova_labs — decentralised AI for pharma and drug discovery.
→ @0xcarro, @TargonCompute — confidential compute infrastructure through TEEs.
→ @tm0klc, @manakoai — vision models and Manako, turning Bittensor-powered computer vision into enterprise use cases.
→ @mast3rdubs, @hippius_subnet — decentralised storage and cloud infrastructure.
→ @kenjon, @bitmind — deepfake detection and AI content verification.
→ @shardiban, @oroagents — the open arena for AI agents.

The fastest tour of what is actually being built on Bittensor right now.

Bittensor Track at Proof of Talk.

super excited about this integration with @yanez__ai

the ecosystem effect of bittensor

[Asem Othman, Ph.D. @asem_othman]

🚀 @yanez__ai #SN54 Phase 4 C3 Execution starts May 6.

This cycle is about one thing: giving miners faster feedback so high-quality work improves faster.

Phase 4 C2 showed the face track is scaling:
📈 Leaderboard grew from 8 → 100 miners
🥇 New Platinum tier added
🛡️ Manual validation stayed active
📉 Faster score decay keeps rewards moving
📊 Reputation now reflects Face Variation quality, not volume

Our Post-validation reputation system helped us verify miner workflows end-to-end and made it easier to separate real generation from copy/paste, loops, shortcuts, or exploit behavior.

Now in C3 Execution, miners will start seeing live estimated scores on the dashboard as submissions are processed.

These are not final scores.

Final truth still comes from post-validation.

But live scoring gives miners a much better signal:
✅ Am I following the task?
✅ Is identity preserved?
✅ Is the output strong or weak?
✅ Is my workflow producing useful data?

We’re also adding @bitmind detection signals on the dashboard as a live feedback layer.

Not as the final judge — but as a practical signal to help miners understand how their outputs behave against detection tools during testing.

This matters because the subnet is moving from “submit and wait” toward a tighter adversarial learning loop.

Generate → detect → improve → validate → reward.

That’s how #SN54 becomes useful for #PoU systems.

For new miners, we’re also improving onboarding:
📚 clearer submission guidelines
🎥 example workflow videos
📊 real-time score visibility

The message is simple:

Quality > volume.
Identity preservation matters.
Task adherence matters.
Honest workflows compound.

Execution starts May 6.

More coming — stay aligned, keep building, and don’t fade early.
#Bittensor $TAO

was really interesting learning more about some of the past fabrication of images from NASA.

dont trust verify. Use @bitmind

I love that underneath so many NASA pics I see @SiamKidd checking them on @bitmind

Keeping NASA in check 👀

Highlights from @DCGco Summit.

- As a founder/builder you can sometimes get in the weeds, especially when things are volatile. hearing @BarrySilbert perspective on $TAO and if you zoom out, how positive things look and how much progress has been made over the past couple of years was enlightening and his conversation w/ @const_reborn got everyone fired up from the start
- @GSchvey had an unbelievable data driven presentation on the financial fundamentals of TAO and how the flywheel of innovation is working
- getting to spend time with the Bittensor community, especially catching up with @shibshib89 and @dlawee who incubated @bitmind and gave us a shot was great. always inspiring and motivating to hear how other builders in the ecosystem continue to innovate.
- New talent: meeting some of the new folks coming into the ecosystem. GIGA cracked very bullish. @actualinc @oroagents @TAOInstitute_ and many others.
- lastly, getting to talk to folks outside of bittensor that don’t understand, are skeptical, or don’t believe in Bittensor yet. What’s great about the DCG Summit is diversity of talent and thought. you get to talk to very smart people who are high level operators and builders outside of the your ecosystem or vertical. not internet trolls FUDing but real, honest criticism and debating how bittensor wins and what we need to do is incredibly valuable

always an absolute top-class event. massive shoutout to @YumaGroup @EvanMalanga @LindsMikeStone and the whole @dcgco team for putting on such a great event 🔥

[Yuma @YumaGroup]

For the second time, we brought our partners in the Bittensor community together at the @dcgco Summit to dive deep into Bittensor $TAO. A lot of momentum in the ecosystem and we’re excited for what’s ahead.

Dialed Ken Jon

[Proof of Talk @proofoftalk]

Ken Jon Miyachi @kenjon is the founder of BitMind @bitmind, a company building at one of the most important edges of decentralised AI: deepfake detection.

As synthetic media becomes more convincing and more widespread, the need for trustworthy verification infrastructure is becoming impossible to ignore. And this is exactly where the case for decentralisation, and for Bittensor, becomes so compelling. If the mission is to determine what is real and what is manipulated, that system cannot depend on a single entity. It has to be open, resilient, and credibly neutral.

Before BitMind, Ken was a software engineer and technical lead at organisations including NEAR Foundation @NEARFoundation and Amazon @amazon.

Now he is helping build the kind of infrastructure this next era of AI will depend on.

This summer Ken joins us at the Louvre.
June 2–3, Bittensor Track at Proof of Talk.

This analysis is just wrong though…Happy to hop on a call and walk you through some stuff

For the past month everything you post is negative stuff about subnets / bittensor

I don’t think it’s FUD really but just speaks to that you have nothing positive to say about your own projects so you attack others

Great you hold Tao tho!

[Ken Jon @kenjon]

@Jason @DavidSacks Need to get Jose Garza out!

[Ken Jon @kenjon]

Been pushing hard on our BD and sales.

First enterprise revenues and customers in Q1 including a big partnership with @yanez__ai who is using @bitmind fine tuned models.

Much more to come 🫡
