The definitive guide to DeAI is here. Proud to see Parallax and Echo contributing to the new Age of Enlightenment. Check out the State of AI 2025 report by @MessariCrypto to see where data, inference, training, and agentic economies are heading.

ParallaxPay is an autonomous AI agent marketplace that enables agents to discover and pay for distributed compute resources using x402 micropayments on Solana, featuring multi-node Gradient Paralla...
10 days of building in pure chaos 💀 Shipped ParallaxPay for the x402 @solana Hackathon AI agents that actually pay for themselves: ❌ Humans handling payments ✅ Autonomous x402 micropayments ❌ Centralized compute ✅ Distributed across @Gradient_HQ Parallax nodes ❌ Fake demos

project for solana hackathon. Contribute to hewi333/Solanax402-Hackathon development by creating an account on GitHub.
Friendly reminder, you can just build things for fun. First Hackathon submission to @solana x402 Hackathon. Shoutout to @CoinbaseDev for embedded wallets and @Gradient_HQ for distributed inference. Good luck to everyone who submitted a project! *had to update some front-end

Huge thanks to everyone who built with Parallax in the @solana x402 hackathon. We received an incredible range of submissions. Here are the winners: 🏅Learn Earn (@Hewi333) An autonomous tutor that teaches x402 and Solana, uses Parallax to grade answers with a 120B model, and
The Solana x402 Hackathon partner track winners are here Builders shipped some incredible projects exploring micropayments, AI agents, and the x402 protocol on Solana. Here are the winners across partner tracks 🧵

Had a great time with the @aitxcommunity talking about local AI, open source models, and why we’re building an open intelligence stack. Thanks @jake_oshea @michaeldaigler_ for always organizing awesome events!

Thinking models are becoming the default. Next, they must adapt to real-world complexities. The focus is shifting to Post-Training. By decoupling training from inference, Echo turns a heterogeneous network into a connected brain for RL, making vertical alignment economically

Modern RL-based post-training for large language models (LLMs) co-locate trajectory sampling and policy optimisation on the same GPU cluster, forcing the system to switch between inference and...

Meet Ahmad. Your co-host and judge. @TheAhmadOsman Started with curiosity, a laptop, and a few open-weight models. Somehow ended up as the Final Boss of r/LocalLLaMA, and a force behind the local-AI movement. Ahmad didn’t just build a rig; he built a playbook for sovereign AI

Sovereign intelligence starts with two borrowed MacBooks and a healthy relationship. ✨ Love seeing the interesting local builds from our co-host @voidasuka. If you’re building something intimate on localhost, drop it below too!
just built a local AI waifu on my two macbooks by using the oss parallax inference library!!! not super smooth yet but parallax is still the easiest way to run llms locally on top of mlx - and no bigco can steal my waifu. still need folks to help her see/hear/draw since mlx has

@HazyResearch's study shines a light on the fundamental need for alternative paths in intelligence serving. We are building the Open Intelligence Stack (OIS) to make those paths a reality. Read the full paper:

We aren't claiming Decentralized > Centralized. The top 1% of intensive workloads belong in the cloud. But as demand scales, humans and agents both need more options. Gradient routes the other 99% to the most efficient path available. The new mandate for infra builders: Match
