PANews reported on October 27 that Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, posted on the X platform that a preview of Tether's Local AI development kit was shown yesterday at Lugano Plan ₿. The kit is privacy-focused and powered by peer-to-peer technology. Code can be written once and run anywhere, from $40 mobile phones to flagship smartphones, from laptops to mainframes with many H100s, and from smart refrigerators to car entertainment systems. Terher's AI SDK is very modular, supporting any model (Marian, Llama, etc.) and loading/storing weights and fine-tuning data in P2P data structures. It will be open sourced after "actual combat" testing.
