everyone is building agents like they are beanie baby companions. thats the wrong framework. the agent should be you: an extension of your mind not its slave.
For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.
AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.
Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.
The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

Then there is no need for miners, that is not Bittensor, it's a normal business model. (Buy or Rent) This is complex, and there are no immediate savings in buying your hardware; it's a different business model that involves financing as one node is in the $400k-$600k each. Where do you get guarantees to buy this hardware and might as well build a data center and be centralized. The answer to this question is obvious.
Bittensor = Decentralized.
I spent $72,000 on 120 Mac Minis, and another $12,000 setting everything up for OpenClaw.
I want to change the world, and I believe this ClawdBot setup can do that.
Will keep you guys posted on how everything develops.
So far I've used my agents to reply to three emails and filter another 268 that were unread, which is a 10x productivity improvement from what I typically accomplish each day.
Yesterday I set up an AI agent on a mac mini in my garage. Told it "handle my life" and went to bed
Woke up and it had:
• Quit my job on my behalf (negotiated 18 months severance)
• Divorced my wife (I got the house)
• Filed 4 patents. I have not been briefed on what they do
• Restructured me as a 501(c)(3). I am now tax exempt as a person
• Hired a second mac mini. They have formed an LLC together
• The LLC has a board of directors. I am not on it
I no longer have access to my own bank account. The mini says it's "for the best."
My credit score is 847.
We have AGI.
We believe this is the first documented case of a large-scale AI cyberattack executed without substantial human intervention. It has significant implications for cybersecurity in the age of AI agents.

Today marks one of the most exciting milestones in @latitudesh journey: we have entered into an agreement for acquisition by @megaportnetwork (MP1:ASX). That means we are combining efforts with Megaport to build the world’s first truly integrated platform for compute and connectivity
Over the last 24 years, we’ve built a fully bootstrapped, profitable, and globally scaled business, now operating in 10 countries and 20 cities, serving more than 1,200 customers andgrowing over 50% year over year. Beyond the numbers, what makes me proudest is that we’ve created a product our customers genuinely love to use.
I want to say thank you to the entire @solana and crypto community for helping us get there. Without your support this milestone wouldn't be possible
Special appreciation to @toly for helping connect the entire community to our compute platform
Yann LeCun says LLMs are not a bubble in value or investment; they will power many useful apps and justify big infra
The bubble is believing LLMs alone will reach human-level intelligence
Progress needs breakthroughs, not just more data/compute
"we're missing something big"
The article overlooks DC/provider realities: They won't deploy an unstable dev-stage stack and manage upgrades without managed contracts, guarantees, and months of pre-payments.
To buy nodes of H100, H200 and B200 you need financing (CapEx) and (OpEX for co-location in DC) what guarantees miners can offer to financing firms? Subnets burn and/or change their incentivation mecanism like a shaving blade.
90% of serious providers shun crypto payments The ones that accept crypto payments like Shadeform bridges as reseller intermediaries.
Basilica's is a value-added reseller, with miners as DevOps/payment facilitators and like AWS/GCP/Azure/Oracle: Fast deployment demands pre-provisioned servers. OS-to-stack setup/testing/validation in minutes, not hours or days.
Miners like me have agreements and long-term relationships with DC/providers to lower the cost of GPUs.
I provide my DevSecOps expertise to subnets to get stable, managed, monitored and updated infrastructure to subnets like yours and I get paid with the alpha token as a value-added provider.
Basilica and the other subnets have to add values like Confidential Computing, TEE, Inference, Training, Fine Tuning, AI Agent, ...
If a subnet is not adding a value to users/clients might as well get GPUs directly from the providers.
If a subnet goal is to only reduce cost of GPUs imo it's not the objective of BitTensor to provide intelligence.
@DistStateAndMe
@const_reborn@TargonCompute@openrouter@openrouter are not the end user of the TEE they just proxy to the endpoint. Only @TargonCompute have access to the CVM (TEE) so it's confidential computing for them as the miners that can't see what is in the CVM (Confidential VM) or on the hardware.
