markjeffrey · x · 2026-10-01
OpenRoboto is building an open competition for robot intelligence on Bittensor: miners iteratively improve a shared base model, and each champion becomes the next starting point.
The team is now expanding into real-robot validation and Shift, a decentralized network for collecting real-world robotics data that connects model improvement with physical data and commercial demand. It will be presented Thursday 5PM EDT on Novelty Search (Subnet 80).
