making things, feeling it all, telling my friends i love them.


Tether AI breakthrough Tether AI team just released new version of QVAC Fabric to include the World’s First Cross-Platform BitNet LoRA Framework to Enable Billion-Parameter AI Training and Inference on Consumer GPUs and Smartphones. Background Microsoft's BitNet uses one bit architecture to dramatically compress models. Traditional LLMs operate on full-precision computation, where weights are stored as complex, high-resolution numbers. The innovation of BitNet is that it shrinks these weights into a tiny ternary range of only -1, 0, and 1. significantly reducing memory usage and computation. LoRA, is a parameter-efficient fine-tuning technique that reduces the number of trainable parameters by up to ninety-nine percent. Together they slash memory and compute requirements. Yet BitNet has mostly been limited to CPU or CUDA NVIDIA backends, and lacked the support of LoRA fine-tuning. Enters QVAC Fabric: the unlock Today, with QVAC Fabric LLM, is the first time BitNet LoRA fine-tuning and inference work cross-platform across GPU vendors and operating systems using Vulkan and Metal backends. That means support for AMD, Intel, Apple Metal and also Mobile GPUs. And for the first time ever, BitNet inference runs efficiently on smartphones using mobile GPUs. On flagship devices, GPU inference is 2 to 11 times faster than CPU while using up to 90% less memory than the full precision models. The biggest unlock: QVAC Fabric LLM support for BitNet LoRA fine-tuning on heterogeneous GPUs. Our team was able to demonstrate this by fine tuning models up to 3.8 billion parameters on all flagships phones such as Pixel 9, S25 and iPhone 16 and up to 13 billion parameter models on the iPhone 16. Github repositories: github.com/tetherto/qvac-… : general QVAC Fabric codebase github.com/tetherto/qvac-… : specific QVAC Fabric's BitNet knowledge base, architecture docs and pre-built binaries What does it mean? What used to require dedicated GPUs now runs on consumer hardware. This breakthrough is the first real-world signal of a local private AI that can truly serve the people. And this is just the beginning. In the next months and years Tether will relentlessly continue to invest significant amounts of resources and capital to continue to research and develop open-source intelligence that can scale and evolve on local devices, providing maximum utility and privacy to its users. The era of Stable Intelligence has just begun. Free as in freedom.

1/4 LLMs solve research grade math problems but struggle with basic calculations. We bridge this gap by turning them to computers. We built a computer INSIDE a transformer that can run programs for millions of steps in seconds solving even the hardest Sudokus with 100% accuracy

i turned spotted in prod into a claude/codex skill just describe what you want and it searches across 747+ production ui patterns better results than scrolling loads of clips







Someone desperately needs to de-woo-ify chakras so more people can benefit from the model. Learning how to relate to the sub-minds distributed in our body has so many benefits. The idea that the mind is largely located in the brain blocks a lot of effective action. It means we always look to our brain for solutions and ignore the intelligences and energies available to us in other parts of the body. I find that if my brain doesn’t have a solution to a problem, my gut often will. Or if my brain tells me I have no energy, Ill actually still be able to access energy by tapping into my sexual energies. Or if I’m failing to empathise with someone, I’ll get more value in bringing awareness down to my heart than by doing more thinking. But the real breakthrough comes in learning to relate to these different centres of intelligences not just as abstract energies but as something more like personalities that we can build a relationship with. We can build a personal relationship with our heart intelligence, our gut intelligence, our sexual intelligence and various other intelligences in our body. We can gain insight into the fact that they continue living a fairly well-defined life of their own, with their own subjectivity even when we aren’t in conscious communication with them. We can actually befriend them and win their trust, which allows us to access more of their wisdom. We can come to experience ourselves more like a community of distributed bodily intelligences rather than just one blob of intelligence in the head connected to a mindless body. Apparently, there are promising lines of enquiry in finding potential physical correlates for these bodily intelligence centres. Different combinations of endocrine glands, nerve plexuses and other regions with dense intoreceptive representations in the brain. The latter aspect may explain how the illusion of intelligence being entirely located in the brain occurs. All these other intelligences are *represented* in the brain. So it’s easy to miss that much of the pre-cognitive information processing can still be happening distributed around the body. I personally think that some aspects beyond the scope of currently known physiology may be part of the ultimate explanation for our distributed bodily intelligence. And some of those things may even be legitimately “woo.” But for now, it would be great to find more spiritually neutral ways of helping people connect to the embodied sub-agents or their somatic mind. I believe it would help people live more whole, intelligent and empowered lives.



I actually really appreciate yacine’s honesty and situational awareness. he probably knows on some level what’s in store for him. lying to your “master” is what you do until you’re in a position to choose who to serve. he’s already bottlenecked by trust and says he has to manually review every line of code. makes sense for him. he’ll continue to get less and less out of models (compared to what they offer people they want to help) as the next few months as and, if applicable, years go on.


@boxcardavid I've never heard of those sites, looked it up to find an even more chinese aliexpress. Is it cheaper and viable to buy stuff on there?
