If AI is to evolve, it must evolve with trust, user sovereignty, and transparency at its foundation. Thrilled to be part of this amazing team at @ASIMOV_Protocol! Building a decentralized, reliable, and sovereign AI is a long-term vision, and I'm excited to play a role in making it a reality.

✨👋 Meet the Team at the ASIMOV Protocol! Kirill (@septengineering), Head of Security ⚔️, is a prolific blockchain security white hat best known for his work on NEAR’s Rainbow Bridge 🌈, the first trustless cross-chain bridge in the industry. He led the Rainbow Bridge team for more than two years, first at @NEARProtocol and then at Aurora. Under his stewardship, the bridge was never hacked despite holding billions of dollars in locked funds and enduring a number of high-profile attacks. At the peak of the previous market cycle, the bridge secured over $15B in TVL 💰 Kirill also managed the Rainbow Bridge security bounty program that successfully incentivized would-be black hats to turn white hat. The program paid out a number of significant bounties, including $6M for the second-largest bounty in history. The Rainbow Bridge’s reputation as a hack-proof bridge remains intact to this day 🛡️ Kirill has contributed to many well-known privacy projects at an early stage, including hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor), Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) initiatives, a ZK-encrypted video messenger, as well as to Beam, the first blockchain based on the Mimblewimble protocol. During the past year, Kirill has been focused on building trustworthy user-owned AI at @HaltiaAI, one of the founding members of the ASIMOV Protocol. 👇

My @ASIMOV_Protocol update on the NEAR Town Hall today: a first exclusive alpha leak and early access to ASIMOV Personal Intelligence, a category-defining product akin to an offline-first, P2P, crowdsourced Palantir in your pocket!
Don’t miss the April @NEARProtocol Town Hall, tomorrow at 4pm UTC. All of the biggest ecosystem updates in one place. 👇

Every American who believes in the 1st and 2nd Amendments should run their own local AI. The AI is about to become the state-owned TV. Soon, all the governments will have that one "honest AI" curating everything that is: safe to know, safe to think, safe to do. Own your reality before open-source models become “a danger to the state”.

Artemis II crew is thousands of miles away from Earth And they’re asking ground crew for help because they have two versions of Microsoft Outlook open and neither is working This scene is now canon 😭
JUST IN: Artemis II crew experiences issues with Microsoft Outlook on their way to the Moon, asks ground crew for assistance.

The shift of power from defensive technologies to offensive technologies has toppled entire societies. Currently we are witnessing a massive shift to more offensive surveillance tech (AI) while defensive privacy technologies are severely lacking. Really concerning.

Let's use technology to build Liberation protocols. Every product should have privacy baked into it by default. Also, you can see that this guy codes. Every conference he puts a little bit weight on, but privacy is important and somebody has to build it. Support us for two greater goods, that every human will have the right to privacy and that our CEO finds some time to go back to the gym.
"As long as there is a possibility that we can be censored and surveilled we will be" @chefsale from @CalimeroNetwork discussed how agents need to be allies in the cypherpunk rebellion: transacting freely, computing privately.

My @ASIMOV_Protocol talk and demo last night at our #OpenSourceAIWeek event in SF: Take a whirlwind tour inside the hybrid multimodal memory of a neurosymbolic machine intelligence as it's observing the room and constructing a real-time knowledge graph to represent & connect the people, objects, and activities that it sees and hears!
Around SF next week? @ASIMOV_Protocol is hosting a killer event with an incredible lineup diving into the future of AI and how we’re evolving as a collective through technology. Don’t miss it. October 22 - Registration link 👇

Want one reason on why hosting your nodes and using P2P apps is better than centralized service providers? When more than half of the Internet goes down in events like this - you are fine. bbc.co.uk/news/live/c5y8k7k6…

If you are asking yourself what is coming next from us? TEEs - so users don’t have to to run their nodes and still have privacy, JS SDK - we love Rust, but reality is majority of people want JS, App Registry - so you can deploy or find your favourite apps and much much more.

Excited that the Calimero fam is growing, welcome @Sky_lunat1c to the team.
After 4 amazing years at @AvailProject, it’s time for a new chapter 🚀 Excited to be joining @CalimeroNetwork to help bring user data back to users through P2P self-sovereignty. Grateful for the journey so far — and hyped for what’s ahead. ⚡️

In an era where governments wield control over our digital lives through surveillance and data mandates, the reality is: masses are not aware of the problem. This is reminder for you to care, because true freedom starts with owning your data, not handing it over to Big Brother.
Feeling down about the world and about myself. Normal human things. I'm sure soon it'll be better. If you're down too, sending you love. I'm hiding from the world for a bit, enjoying the Boston fall months, long runs along the Charles river. I think humans are beautiful and fascinating and for the most part awesome. The internet seems to want to tell you otherwise. I disagree, but I don't have the right words for it. I'll probably do a long solo episode on Dostoevsky (especially Brothers Karamazov) at some point to help me articulate this better. I love you all.

A first cut at integrating local vision models into @ASIMOV_Platform The compounding effects of the past year of foundational work mean that adding in features like this is now relatively trivial, just another data flow from existing building blocks PS. Those who know me may be unsurprised at which book happened to be on my desk to be pressed into use as test fodder...

Hanging out with the one and only @Scobleizer discussing neurosymbolic AI and what a Palantir for your personal life might look like Also saw first hand how Robert manages his curated lists, the best lists on X about AI startups, founders, researchers, and investors!
