The journey to finding the right GPU partner for the Black Box was an interesting one. I've long felt frustrated by how decentralized GPU computing seemed to be drifting away from retail users, focusing instead on $3k+ GPUs. Yet retail built this industry! Retail is where the power is. While I can't knock following where demand is, I believe that the true strength of DePIN lies in enabling broad participation. Massive consumer involvement is the most important force multiplier for crypto I'm concerned with atm. So when we asked ourselves, "What's the best way to reward our users using the BB GPUs?" we realized we had to move up the stack with our protocol partners and find protocols designed specifically to harness the retail's power. We wanted a partner whose technology was positioned to meet future industry demands over the next five years by uniquely leveraging retail. With this backdrop in mind for our values and the market of protocols available to us, it's hard not to fall in love with the elegance of Swarm Inference. @inikitin and @thisisfirsov 's vision at @fortytwonetwork of building an inference layer from many lightweight models working collectively, competing with expensive GPUs, is genuinely elegant. Think of the emergent properties of ant colonies, or bee hives. In the same way, Swarm Inference in AI feels almost magical. It gives me real hope that the future of AI can indeed be powered by average households. There are other demand signals that reinforce my belief that Swarm Inference will become an essential part of AI’s future. Supporting this vision through the Black Box is something I'm very stoked for. We've got an incredible future to build.
