On June 13, the US government cut off access to Fable 5, the best frontier model on earth. This created an urgent need for Sovereign AI in every country, especially India, where technical talent is unlimited.
Today, we're launching DCompute Cloud (https://t.co/MTTJpgbcpw) with a promise to serve researchers and students GPUs at some of the cheapest prices available, starting at just $1.99/hr for 1x H100 and $2.49/hr for 1x H200, among other GPUs.
We're looking to collaborate with research labs, neo labs, universities, and startup founders to serve your compute needs and help India meet its compute requirements.
This is a small step by DCompute towards India becoming a sovereign AI nation, and it starts with the innovators of this country, helping them with what they need the most.
If you're a researcher who wants us to help serve your university or research lab, or a student trying to solve your compute requirements, send the link below to the right person, and DCompute will take care of it. No questions asked.

I want to say a final thing about my Fable first reaction: I dedicated my life to programming and I'll use every innovation in the field, also to extract value and bring it to the local inference world, to Redis, and so forth. But:

Tesla bids Bye-Bye to India.
Reasons:
“Inadequate local infrastructure; a mismatch between the purchasing power of India’s automotive market and Tesla’s premium product positioning; and uncertainties and policy risks associated with India’s business environment.”
@ThePrimeagen I used to be able to build 4 out of 10 features. Now I can build 8 out of 10. But that improvement hasn’t reflected in revenue yet maybe because the new 4 features weren’t things users actually wanted.
Every C-suite wants to “optimize workflows” with “Ai agents” instead of rapidly building and prototyping radically different ideas.

Early-stage startup HRs pitching like it’s a shaadi bio: “CEO is ex-XYZ, raised millions, exited big…” Cool, but I’m here for a job, not a marriage proposal. Just tell me what expected of me and what’s the company is about
Try running a reasonably capable open-source LLM on local hardware at around 50/60 tok/s, and you’ll start to see what the hype is really about. It’s not just the technology itself, but the heavy subsidies and support coming from frontier labs that are driving the bubble.
@0xratnakar I often feel that many of India’s problems stem from the fact that appearing to take action is valued more than taking real, meaningful action and getting things done
