Guys it is so hot here in New York. I had to take my shirt off it's so hot, hotter than Texas right now. Okay, Monday we're launching the largest decentralized training run we think ever in history. I think what, like 200 contributors is the number to beat from Bittensor? We're going to blow past that very easily because uh, you're just going to install our node software and you're going to get paid Bitcoin to contribute to a training run.
We kind of went back and forth on whether this should be like a pre-trained model from scratch, like a tiny language model, or a fine tune of a Llama model. Well, we did some work with Fable. Yeah, yeah, you heard this Claude model, they're like 'oh we don't help you with distributed training.' Well, I gotta tell you something Anthropic, you did. You were very, very helpful.
So there's a- a very fancy new architecture we've been talking about a little bit called this Percepta Executor Class model. CPU computation transformed- it's just really cool. It's like a new frontier and uh, we're adding support for that to Pylon version 0.3 paired with the Bitcoin payments, paired with the forum and the coding agents and stuff that we- like it's all going to be mashed into Pylon v0.3.
So you're going to have one piece of software that's going to earn you Bitcoin in a multiple, multiple different ways, uh including helping train this very experimental but we think very powerful new kind of model which we're calling Tassadar. Tassadar, okay? Uh, we'll launch that Monday, so enjoy your weekend. See ya.
