Following Ilya Sutskever's departure from OpenAI, developers have created IlyaGPT, an AI chatbot that emulates the renowned scientist's expertise. The project utilized: - Masa Web Scraper to collect data - Sutskever's Wikipedia page content - Comprehensive research paper summaries - ChatGPT integration for response generation The system aims to provide AI expertise through a conversational interface modeled after Sutskever's knowledge base. A demonstration video shows the development process and capabilities. [Try IlyaGPT](https://data.masa.ai/)

**Bittensor ecosystem** takes center stage at the Louvre in Paris on June 10th during Proof of Talk conference. The event features a Shark Tank-style presentation of various Bittensor subnets. Key presentations include: - SN4 Targon by Manifold Labs - SN96 FlockOff by Flock.io - SN42 Real-Time Data by Masa - SN14 by TaoHash - SN50 Synth - SN44 Score - SN8 Proprietary Trading Network Brendan Playford, Masa Co-Founder, will join other ecosystem leaders for subnet demonstrations.

Masa has upgraded their API with enhanced X-Twitter search functionality powered by Bittensor SN42. New features include real-time and historical tweet access, TEE-secured verifiable data, advanced query capabilities, similarity and hybrid search options, and LLM-ready structured JSON output. The update builds on recent improvements to deep archive search and indexed data access. The API aims to provide enterprise-grade data infrastructure for AI applications while maintaining data integrity through TEE security.

Masa has released significant updates to Subnet 42, focusing on infrastructure improvements: - New **Capabilities Field** enables miners to specify supported authentication types and queries - Enhanced **Telemetry System** now supports requestor ID filtering - Released **TEE Worker Testing Tool** with one-click connectivity testing and automatic capability detection - Added support for residential VPN routing Key metrics: - 397.6M data records processed The update requires users to pull latest Docker Compose and restart their setup.
