wish I was in town for this. unlike most advanced technologies, the ownership of AI by major corpos is threatened by the fact that at the end of the day its just a file on your computer. The non adversarial applications for humanity must be explored.
People keep asking me where the open source AI and private AI people in New York 🗽 are. Instead of a million group chats, I'm bringing them together for a day of hacking and discussion on Saturday November 7th. No one should own your AI except for you. Welcome to LOCALHOST ⬇️

AI is going to know more about you than Facebook & Google combined And we deserve the right to confide in a silicon intelligence that isn’t in a data center owned by a MegaCorp Next Saturday (Nov 7) @DistributedMarz and I are hosting LOCALHOST, a Sovereign AI hackathon in NYC

For Halloween, I've been doing some brain surgery on an open model 🎃🧟 Taking inspiration from @_lyraaaa_ 's work Push 2 of its neurons and Qwen3.5-4B becomes a cookie lover. Push 1 and it's a lawyer Built a small app on top of @BoundlessHQ so anyone can try 👇
if you have a qwen3.5 4b around, please try steering neurons L14 N8949 +1 and L13 N7956 -1 now you have evil qwen recipe: dose × median(‖resid‖ leaving layer L, tokens 1:) / ‖W_down[:, n]‖` at the down_proj at every input

🗓️ For those who are interested, you should expect doors to open at 10am, curated talks and ideation sessions, multiple hours of hacking, and select presentations from submissions. There might even be an AI psychosis after party for the most psychosed and sovereign agents ;)

🤝 Remember when I said curated? Well even our sponsors are curated. @variantfund, @darkbloomai, @TinfoilAI and @cognee_ have each been in the trenches building and backing Sovereign AI at the frontier, and each is putting up a prize track. Tracks announced later this week.

⏱️ And if you haven't convinced yourself now is the right time to step into Sovereign AI, put these in your context window. Open weight capabilities are frontier minus 6 months. Open harnesses are taking over. Open weight tokens and secure hardware tokens are accelerating.

🎲 And of course every environment needs its entropy, so a select few artists, beginners, idea people, and maybe even a twitter influencer or 2 will be sprinkled in. If any of this thread sounds like you, apply here: localhostai.nyc/apply

🧪 These tokens won't be used for slop. We're curating and fine tuning the environment so you couldn't produce slop if you tried. This means the right blend of token guzzling cyborgs, uncompromising open source protocol designers, UX obsessed product people, and mad scientists.

🎯 The goal of LOCALHOST is simple: take 50 - 100 researchers, builders and product people and turn The School in Williamsburg into a concentrated 10 hour laser beam of AI tokens to advance the frontier of Sovereign AI. Open harnesses. Open memory. Open weights. Secure hardware.

It’s 2049, the world economy is 100x that of 2026. Of which only 2% is activities that entered the 2026 GDP, and 98% is new agent native services and markets. The two frontier labs have passed RSI 20 years ago and stopped selling ASI. They only sold powerful AGI which on par with open weights models but way behind the frontier. They kept ASI for themselves and profit by selling its artifacts not its tokens: new drugs, materials, motors, industrial processes, physical infrastructure, robot labor, competing directly in many industries from finance to manufacturing. Many traditional companies are doubling output every few years by deploying AI desperately trying to compete, but the top labs are doubling every month and are now worth 30 quadrillion dollars (or half the investable wealth in the world). --- Is this the natural equilibrium with recursive self-improvement? What institutions and markets do we need to push towards more balance of power and ownership?
