Those who build AI today control the future. The dAGI Summit (part of Open Source AI Week by Linux Foundation) is for founders, researchers and builders driving the open-source and distributed AI that gives power back to people. We are bringing together senior researchers and…
This is kinda crazy
Pluralis is pulling off something really big: a decentralized AI training run where anyone can contribute compute + earn rewards. This matters because it shows how AI can be built as an open network, not locked inside a few giant labs. We’re excited because this aligns with our…

320 active nodes in <24hrs. Completely heterogeneous GPU mix. Loss still on track.
Max's papers were the major reason I got convinced any of this was possible at all. I cannot emphasise enough how non-accepted/contrarian this whole line of research was. So you think your missing something because all these other smart people dismiss it. But then Max's papers…

What a wild map to wake up to. External node count growing as quick as join queue can get people in. Loss marching down entirely unaffected.
It really is that easy to get started!

Last few months has been this with the additional complexity of supporting multi-party training + running over a noisy fabric of decentralised compute we don't control. Required re-writing large portions of the distributed training stack. Not easy. Done now though.

People think about pretraining runs as single long monolithic loss curves but they're not like that even in the centralised case. You run stuff, move it through different data stages, go back and fork off a checkpoint, change some norm somewhere etc. etc.

perps on god
Obsessing over the SWE-bench chart is one of the most mid-curve things I've ever seen. Take a second and absorb what's actually been achieved here. Understandable to not like OpenAI since they're destroying your whole identity but don't pretend its the chart that's the issue.
Every single datapoint pointing towards GPT-5 being really really good.

pretraining is an elegant science, done by mathematicians who sit in cold rooms writing optimization theory on blackboards, engineers with total absorb of distributed systems of titanic scale posttraining is hair raising cowboy research where people drinking a lot of diet coke…
Missing the point that it'll be a system who's behaviour is controlled by a few people, in companies that don't have the best track record when it comes to this kind of thing. It's fundamentally a level of power that's never existed before it's that simple.

Thats a wrap for ICML2025. Incredible to watch the space go from "What are you talking about" to "That's impossible" to "Hmmm thats very interesting" in just over a year. @tha_ajanthan @hmdolatabadi
