Sounds great, looking forward to it :+1:

Hi everyone, thank you for today’s call (2025.02.20). Special thanks to @ielashi for sharing the LLM Canister update. This is the generated summary (short version, please find the long version here ): The ICP LLM Canister was introduced as a new LLM service on the Internet Computer, currently supporting Llama 3.1 (8B parameters) with Rust and Motoko libraries. While the AI worker is centralized for now, decentralization is a key future goal. The system is stateless, using IC’s random beacon for variability in responses, and scalability improvements are being explored. Future plans include expanding language support, integrating Anthropic’s MCP for tool calling, and enhancing security and privacy. At ETH Denver, ICP teams will showcase live AI demos, engage in hackathons, and explore cross-chain AI collaborations.

Awesome, looking forward to it!

Our agenda this Thursday will be your presentation on HyperLaunch and the first Proof-of-AI-Work demo. See you all then :+1:

Hi everyone, thank you for today’s call (2025.02.27). Special thanks to the ELNA team for demoing! This is the generated summary (short version, please find the long version here ): We had two demos during today’s DeAI call: HyperLaunch and Proof-of-AI-Work. HyperLaunch enables the tokenization of AI agents, providing a revenue model through governance and decentralized ownership. In the live demo, the ELNA team showcased the tokenization of the Dom3PO AI agent, with future plans for an autonomous podcast agent. onicai introduced Proof-of-AI-Work (PoAIW), a decentralized method inspired by blockchain to verify AI contributions, where AI miners compete and a judge model ranks responses. A fully on-chain AI execution on ICP was demonstrated. The discussion covered governance challenges, ensuring fairness in AI competitions, and balancing model performance with decentralized decision-making.

Hi everyone, this week we’ll have a review of ETH Denver, so it’d be great for all of us who were there to bring their impressions and observations to the call to share them with the group :+1:
Are there any other items you’d like to see on this week’s agenda or is there anything you’d like to share with/show to the group?

Hi everyone, thank you for today’s call (2025.03.06). Special thanks to @jennifertran , @icpp and @apotheosis for sharing their ETH Denver experiences! This is the generated summary (short version, please find the long version here ): The discussion covered a review of ETH Denver. The ICP team engaged in AI and Bitcoin-related networking, highlighting strong developer interest in ZKPs, TEEs, and on-chain AI verification. AI agent discussions were mostly future-oriented, with Eliza as a key framework, while the Bitcoin community showed increasing interest in AI integrations. ICP submissions at the hackathon doubled, with the “Only Possible on ICP” track seeing the most engagement. Looking ahead, an ICP AI hackathon is being considered to better showcase its unique capabilities in the Web3 AI space.

Focus of this week’s AI4AI DeAI meeting will be on accelerator card hardware options (GPU/APU/NPU/TPU) and evaluation of their respective benefits for the future of AI enabled subnets

This is great, and would be a good segway to discuss some of the decentralization options we have here. I’ll share more about those in the meeting on Thursday.

Also, if I may, I’d like to bring this poll to the attention of this group, as I’d love to get your input on that topic.

Hi everyone, thank you for today’s call (2025.03.13). Special thanks to @icarus for leading the call! This is the generated summary (short version, please find the long version here ): In today’s DeAI Working Group call for the Internet Computer, ETH students introduced an inference engine project using a 1B-parameter Llama 3 model, exploring optimizations via the Mistral RS library and considering alternatives like Candle and Llama.cpp. The group focused on discussions on upgrading hardware to Gen-3 AMD EPYC Zen 5 CPUs and integrating GPUs, highlighting NVIDIA’s H100/H200, AMD Instinct, and emerging accelerators such as Tenstorrent to meet ICP’s future AI workload requirements.

Hi everyone, I’m excited that the DeAI Chat team (DeAI.chat – Decentralized AI chat on the Internet Computer) will present their work during this week’s call :muscle: thank you @jennifertran for organizing! In addition, we’ll discuss the decentralization options for the AI Worker and the recent poll on this by @ielashi :thumbsup: See you all at 6pm CET on Thursday, I’m looking forward to it!
