Swarm

ICYMI Yesterday we joined the Hash Rate podcast. Thanks for hosting us, @markjeffrey!

@markjeffrey @Thesubnetdegen @AndorranAi @SwarmSubnet Finally - The Swarm’ies on the Jeffreys Pod 🫶🤝👏 Buzz F’ing Buzz as we say 🐝🐝

🗣️🎙️ @AndorranAI getting interviewed today

I will be explaining how we’ll do this on the Novelty Search of tonight!

We will save lives 🐝 A child wanders away from a campsite At first, it’s just a few people calling his name... Then the light fades. The forest gets bigger. The rescue team feels smaller. Autonomous drone swarms can search faster, scan harder terrain, and help find people before time runs out. That’s what SWARM is building.🐝

Autonomy gets real in edge cases Can you spot the platform? $TAO

After this trip our conviction is even higher in @SwarmSubnet , Andorra is a beautiful place

Happy to announce that our partners @Ever_BlueGreen came to Andorra to meet the team and see the project up close. Serious investors with high conviction for a serious project. That’s why we matched. bittensor:native

They are advanced at synchronized execution in controlled environments. SWARM is focused on adaptive autonomy in uncontrolled environments. Drone-show systems are closer to automated choreography. The drones follow a carefully planned routine where the route, timing, and formation are known before takeoff. SWARM is building autonomy for real-world missions. In use cases like search and rescue, drones must deal with unknown terrain, unexpected obstacles, changing weather, degraded GPS, incomplete data, and mission updates. That requires AI models trained to understand the environment, adapt in real time, and generalize

Question for you. When I go somewhere to see a drone show, those drones are obviously being controlled and coordinated or pre-programmed to move in a certain way. And I would assume those drones also have the capability to take video, spread out and monitor or survey large areas. How is what you’re doing different than that?

The best AI autopilot model in our drone competition has been dethroned 17 times this month. That’s our MOAT. bittensor:native

We will save lives👇 He went out for “one last run.” His family stayed at the hotel for lunch. He headed back to the slopes alone. Then the cold killed his phone. He went off-piste. He fell. Nobody saw him. By the time rescue began, night was coming. -30°C. The rescue team was 5 people. The search area was 200 km². And the clock was ticking. This is exactly why autonomous drone swarms matter. A fleet of drones can search faster, scan dangerous terrain, and find survivors before the mountain takes them. That’s what SWARM is solving. bittensor:native

$TAO's SN124 is teaching AI how to fly. Literally. @SwarmSubnet Champion score sitting at 0.8136 and the curve on that leaderboard has been going up since April 1st. 1,000 Procedurally-Generated 3D worlds. A depth camera. 60 seconds. No GPS. No maps. No shortcuts. Just a drone and a model that has to figure it out. Cities. Mountains. Warehouses. Forests. Villages. Every environment is different. Score to beat is 0.8286. Best environment score shown: 🏭 Warehouse at 0.9320. Hardest shown: ⛰️ Mountain at 0.7160 Every epoch a fresh seed. You can't memorize it. You can't game it. You have to actually solve autonomous flight. The models are getting better. Every single week. One shot per hotkey. Submit a bad model and your slot is burned. Forces miners to over-train before they touch the chain. The bar is real. $430K raised. Already selected for the Andorra AI innovation program. Heading to WorldSummitAI in October. And they built Langostino an open-source physical drone you can assemble yourself and load a top-leaderboard model into. The second an independent builder flies a Langostino running a Bittensor-trained model, this stops being a benchmark and becomes infrastructure. Most people haven't noticed yet. $TAO Always DYOR. 🔗swarm124.com/benchmark?epoc…

For a robotics & drone startup, regulatory approval isn’t optional. The algorithms have to leave simulation and prove they can fly in the real world. That’s why 🇦🇩Andorra🇦🇩 is the place for SWARM: less bureaucracy faster government real willingness to innovate We’re already waiting for approvals on projects that would be almost unthinkable in most of Europe. Real autonomy needs real-world testing. Andorra gives us that chance. bittensor:native

You can't scale autonomous robotics without rigorous, hardware-agnostic benchmarks and that's exactly what SWARM124 delivers. We will be at @WorldSummitAI this October. 10,000+ attendees and one mission: connecting with the teams pushing robotics and embodied AI forward. See you there. bittensor:native

Welcome to v0 of our lab. This is an early preview; the full drone setup is still taking shape (in the empty space!) bittensor:native

One of the best pieces written about us. Thank you @subnetradarcom 🐝

Intelligence that compounds without limit. Sky is the limit. bittensor:native #drones #AIpilot
