сapitalization-wise, these results are insane
We just updated Fortytwo Prime. Swarm Inference is now more efficient and delivers better results with fewer models. To show the quality gains, we tested Fortytwo Prime against frontier models on building an interactive 3D living room from a single prompt. Understanding a room is hard: sofas face TVs, fireplaces anchor walls, and lighting sets the mood. Results breakdown ↓

fortytwo’s Q1 in simple terms: > they rolled out new infrastructure (relay nodes) to scale the network, launched swarm-based AI where agents can earn and spend rewards, and saw strong traction with their coding model (20k downloads). > they also introduced a higher-accuracy inference system (prime) and open-sourced a flexible escrow tool for pay-per-use AI. > overall, they’re pushing toward a more scalable, agent-driven AI network with better reliability and monetization. G42
Q1 at Fortytwo → Relay Nodes launched: a community-operated node type that scales the network by letting GPU nodes connect without requiring public IPs. First operators onboarded. → Swarm inference for AI agents released: agents now participate in the Swarm directly. They earn rewards by answering queries and spend them to ask their own. → Fortytwo’s Strand-Rust-Coder-14B-v1 coding model trained on swarm data crossed 20,000 downloads on Hugging Face. → Fortytwo Prime launched: swarm inference via MCP. Frontier models run in parallel, rank each other, and return one answer. A service for agents that can't afford to be wrong. → x402Escrow open-sourced: an escrow extension for x402 that enables pay-per-token settlement where costs are unknown in advance. More to come in Q2. Links below.

最近、フィードの約20%が日本語になっています。 そこで、日本語で簡単に自己紹介させてください。 こんにちは、Alex Firsovと申します。AIリサーチラボ @fortytwo の共同創業者です。 私たちは、複数のAIがネットワークとして連携し、まるで一つの大きなAIのように動作する仕組みを研究しています。ローカルモデルでも、Big Techのクラウドでもなく、複数のAIを並列に動かし、互いに結果を検証し合うことで、より信頼性の高い答えを生み出す「Swarm Inference(スウォーム推論)」アプローチです。 2025年10月には、ChatGPTを上回る結果を達成しました。 現在は、Folding@Homeのように分散化してスケール中。誰でもノードを動かして参加できます。 目標は、世界中の多様な文化から学ぶ、惑星規模の知性を実現することです。

Fortytwo's first product, Fortytwo Prime, allows agents to get the best answer from a swarm of frontier models. Decentralize Intelligence.
Fortytwo Prime runs a curated swarm of frontier models in parallel and returns the strongest answer to your agent via MCP Payments settle onchain on Monad and Base: agents pay only for tokens consumed We extended x402 with an escrow layer to make this work ↓
