Frank has been a force for good in the Bittensor ecosystem for a long time and brings a track record of business development and entrepreneurial success with the Rizzo Validator and Subnet 20 BitAgent to our project. I relish any chance I get to mix it up with a fellow validator and this conversation was no exception. Tune in for a wide ranging conversation between Frank and I. Thanks for listening!

With Subnet 12 - Compute Horde recently eclipsing 1000 GPUs and breaking all known limits of subnet design, Rhef and his team are inviting miners into a whole new architecture with multiple GPUs, on-demand requisitioning, a la carte HuggingFace model hosting and custom front ends for user interaction. This episode is best consumed through video as there are a couple screen sharing demos. Link below. Don't miss Rhef's Bittensor network dashboards either. Enjoy!

Sam Forman from Sturdy joins the Bittensor Guru to discuss Subnet 10. Sturdy uses their subnet as a crowdsourced yield optimization engine to power their lending protocol, setting a new standard for decentralization of financial intelligence. Fresh of a major upgrade to their reward mechanism, Sam takes us through how he uses Bittensor's incentivization to deliver top returns to Sturdy's users.

YZ joins me to describe how he and the talented team from Kaito are working to create a decentralized version of their popular subscription service for indexing/searching content across many web3 platforms with Bittensor's Subnet 5. With a couple months on mainnet, a healthy portion of the emissions from validators and a worthy objective relevant to nearly anyone who seeks to get a view from outside their personal feed, this one subnet to keep an eye on.

Steffen Cruz, former CTO of the Opentensor Foundation, has teamed up with long time friend Will Squires to form Macrocosmos. With subnets 1, 9 and 13 under their guidance and a protein folding subnet on testnet nearly ready for launch, this group is shaping the future of Bittensor and one of the most influential forces in the ecosystem.

Angad and Akshat join the pod from the team at Impel which recently launched on Bittensor's Subnet 11 to incentivize decentralized creation of roleplay models for their app Dippy.ai. Get to know the team, the killer pedigree and their bold objective of becoming the open source leaders in roleplaying LLMs. Video link below.

The Conversation Genome Project by Afterparty represents an evolution of subnet planning, design and execution. With months on testnet under their belt, a capable and experienced team leading their development and a revolutionary approach to incentivizing intelligence, David Fields and team are poised to democratize access to personalized AI using Bittensor.

The Subvortex team joins the Bittensor Guru to share how they've increased network decentralization by using the incentivize mechanism on their subnet to encourage miners to run optimal subtensor nodes all over the world. With nodes in more than 70 countries and low latency/high redundancy along with a load balancer, they've effectively eliminated the need to run an individually operated subtensor node. Great team here and highly creative use of a subnet slot. Be sure to check out the wandb link below for all the statistics on their mining pool.

Eseck and Albert from the FirstTensor validator on Bittensor joined us to discuss Subnet 16 BitAds.ai and the unique approach they've taken to towards incentivizing decentralized ad campaigns. Truly novel design meets well-calculated implementation with this one. We've even launched a Bittensor Guru ad campaign ourselves! It was a pleasure to chat with a fellow validator bring value to Bittensor.

Inference Labs has created Subnet 2 Omron to provide cryptographically verified proof-of-inference. Their first target is Active Validation Service (AVS) and Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRT). Colin, Inference Labs cofounder, walks us through the Subnet and how it provides a critical services for guaranteeing authenticity for inference. Enjoy!
