on sept 15 2008, lehman brothers collapsed and gave the whole world a reason to believe in $BTC on june 12 2026, a single government order forced anthropic to pull its most capable models offline for every foreign national on earth, and gave the whole world a reason to believe in bittensor:native humans only react to negative things. sad but true. in 2008 we learned the banks were the problem. in 2026 we’ll learn that one kill switch sitting inside a centralised AI lab is the problem.

Access to intelligence should not depend on a handful of companies or governments. This is why open, decentralized, permissionless AI matters. This is why Bittensor matters.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

ai x crypto is not crypto it’s freedom
AI peeps, you can pivot back to crypto now. In fact, you might have to if you want to work on AGI.

don’t ever ask me again why we’re building open source and decentralised models

Video has unique challenges which force it to operate on the edge in production. So we turned the subnet into a vision distillation machine, and the numbers are now clear.
That is what we are building, and the miners on our subnet are the engine. The incentive mechanism turned an open, adversarial competition into a model that beats the giants at its job. Point the same mechanism at the next task and it does it again.

Specialist wins. Vertical wins. "The result: the 19 MB specialist beat every one of them on accuracy, while running 9x to 130x faster, on a cheap 4-thread CPU with no GPU and no cloud." 'PC AI'. Not 'Mainframe AI'.

if you read one thing about score, make it this. the most important content shipped since sn44 day one: vision distillation, proven.

"@webuildscore is just marketing" n=280 frames, 95% cluster-bootstrap CIs, ignore regions masked, p95 latency on a 4-thread i5, no gpu we even scored the VLMs on F1 instead of mAP to give them their best shot handicapped ourselves to be fair. still alone in the top-left. highest accuracy, near real time, on cpu the pareto frontier doesn't lie

SUBNET NEWS: @webuildscore and @vidaio_ join forces to bring advanced visual intelligence into VidaioOS, making video archives searchable, actionable and monetisable at an entirely new level.
Score x Vidaio. Following our @ProofOfTalk presentation, @vidaio_ (SN85) is partnering with us to be one of the first teams to launch their own vision AI challenges on SN44. The goal: bring advanced visual intelligence into VidaioOS, making video archives searchable, actionable and monetisable at an entirely new level. Two subnets, one network effect. More to come in the coming weeks.

new in @manakoai: pick your optimisation target and the platform converges on it. no thresholds, no tuning, no ML engineer. you say what good looks like, manako gets there. fewer false alarms, higher recall, lower cost. our team ships things daily that we'd have called impossible a year ago.

The value @webuildscore score can bring to our product and customers is clear; exciting times ahead! I have a huge amount of respect for @MaxScore and the team, and what they are building is truly incredible; absolutely pumped for this partnership, LFG! @vidaio_

sn44 belongs to everyone. if you want to push the vision ai frontier, our incentive mechanism is yours to build on. doors are open. they always will be. bullish on @vidaio_, bullish on @GarethHowe95938
