[00:00] Christopher David: Hello again!
[00:01] Christopher David: I'm excited to demonstrate for you the first working production live example of OpenAgent's compute network working in practice. We've got this beautiful button here called Go Online.
[00:12] Christopher David: We want you to be able to sell your compute for Bitcoin doing nothing but clicking this button.
[00:20] Christopher David: and going online and earning bitcoin you'll notice that my wallet balance up here is 464 bitcoin sats that corresponds to my provider wallet over here where i'm actually earning that's backwards maybe but that says 36 started with 536 sats have been paid three messages at a time from my macbook computer where i'm currently recording this to my linux desktop where i run larger models that don't run on my macbook
[00:48] Christopher David: So right now I'm just, you know, basically paying myself free sats, but you can envision that there will be people all around the world. Maybe someone's figured out how to run the full DeepSync R1 in a local way and they just want to charge Bitcoin sats for that and you have access to this entire global marketplace of swarm inference.
[01:07] Christopher David: Eventually there will be swarm other kinds of things as well. But let's demonstrate it. So I'll right now click the big beautiful go online button over here.
[01:16] Christopher David: That makes me available to receive jobs. These are NIP 90 jobs over Noster.
[01:23] Christopher David: More on that separately.
[01:25] Christopher David: But this is not a protocol that we're inventing. It is an open protocol that works.
[01:30] Christopher David: Okay,
[01:31] Christopher David: so let's open up chat window.
[01:33] Christopher David: I'll be doing command four to open up windows.
[01:37] Christopher David: Moving in the direction of StarCraft UI,
[01:39] Christopher David: people.
[01:40] Christopher David: All right.
[01:40] Christopher David: So first let's demonstrate Olama.
[01:43] Christopher David: So I want to just say, you know.
[01:44] Christopher David: You know, hi there.
[01:46] Christopher David: This is running my local model, so what model are you?
[01:51] Christopher David: This is Gemma 1B.
[01:53] Christopher David: When I'm on an airplane,
[01:54] Christopher David: I'll use Gemma 1B or other Gemma models locally,
[01:57] Christopher David: but I want to be able to run more powerful models like DevStroll. This is the new coding agent model,
[02:04] Christopher David: apparently super good for agentic stuff.
[02:06] Christopher David: For Mistral,
[02:07] Christopher David: 24 billion parameters.
[02:08] Christopher David: I've tried using it on my Mac.
[02:09] Christopher David: It doesn't work,
[02:10] Christopher David: and so let's try this.
[02:13] Christopher David: I'm going to say now I changed you.
[02:17] Christopher David: Tell me now what model and lab.
[02:21] Christopher David: Are you from this is going out to the Nostra relay that I'm connected to,
[02:28] Christopher David: which my desktop app is also listening to the reason right now this will take like maybe a couple seconds otherwise that you like slower than you might otherwise want is because it's it's doing lightning invoice payments.
[02:46] Christopher David: It's doing lightning invoice payments,
[02:48] Christopher David: which are pretty fast, but it could be even faster.
[02:52] Christopher David: So this will just get better and better.
[02:54] Christopher David: But this works globally.
[02:57] Christopher David: You'll see that I have 461 sats here and I have 39 sats here.
[03:09] Christopher David: So it works.
[03:11] Christopher David: You know, this is still alpha quality.
[03:13] Christopher David: We've got to clean it up and add some more.
[03:15] Christopher David: You know shiny little UI features that make it nicer,
[03:18] Christopher David: but we're gonna start testing this out and Let's build a global compute marketplace with inference and all these things fully decentralized using Bitcoin.
[03:28] Christopher David: See you soon
