Roadmap and Vision for CETI AI
🟢 Discussed the roadmap, funding strategies, and the vision for decentralized AI.
🟢 Emphasized the need to adapt to a rapidly evolving ecosystem.
🟢 Introduced a space exploration analogy to describe CETI’s progress and challenges.
Operations Team Development
🟢 Need for a dedicated operations team to handle hardware and infrastructure.
🟢 Hiring efforts are ongoing for an on-site presence in Vancouver and outsourcing for additional support.
🟢 Aim is to free up high-value engineering time for AI inference, training, and ICF (Intelligent Compute Fabric) development.
Infrastructure and Performance Optimization
🟢 Current network inefficiencies are limiting performance (10Gb internal transfers not being fully utilized).
🟢 Need to resolve network issues before expanding into AI model training.
🟢 S19 Inference Deployment with a miner partner is underway, aiming for increased revenue.
Revenue Growth & Financial Strategy
🟢 Current margins are being focused on to sustain operations and expansion.
🟢 Need to increase revenue per compute hour by targeting direct partnerships instead of brokers.
🟢 Exploring financing options including Reg D offerings, treasury token sales, and over-collateralized loans.
🟢 Growth strategy includes increasing RevShare payouts once CETI reaches profitability.
Scaling AI Training and Inference Services
🟢 Preparing for training as a service as demand for AI model training grows.
🟢 ICF (Intelligent Compute Fabric) development is critical to optimizing compute allocation.
🟢 Working on multiple integration points (e.g., S19, Morpheus AI, Ritual, RapidAPI, Venice).
🟢 Expecting Venice to go live soon but lack of direct communication is a challenge.
Future of Decentralized AI
🟢 Trend towards personalized AI models and agentic systems that are blockchain-powered.
🟢 The need for scalable, decentralized AI training services.
🟢 CETI is well-positioned with enterprise-grade GPU infrastructure but must expand its partnerships.
Strategic Marketing & Community Engagement
🟢 Need to time marketing efforts to align with hitting “warp speed” (profitable, self-sustaining growth).
🟢 Potential token rebrand when CETI reaches strong revenue and RevShare activation.
🟢 Increased focus on community-driven marketing and business development.
Upcoming Action Items:
✅ Hiring & Operations:
Continue recruiting an operations engineer for on-site support.
Finalize outsourced support for infrastructure-related tasks.

Continue Morpheus AI integration for inference revenue.
✅ Scaling Partnerships & Adoption:
Engage Venice team to discuss expected traffic and allocation.
Pursue B2B partnerships for AI training (e.g., medical, finance, security sectors).
Follow up with Ritual for AVS participation.
✅ Long-Term Growth & AI Model Training:
Begin expanding InfiniBand network across all 16 CETI nodes.
Develop tokenized AI model training system.
Align ICF (Intelligent Compute Fabric) with revenue growth goals.
✅ Marketing & Community Engagement:
Work on official roadmap documentation for the public.
Plan a strategic marketing push once RevShare is live.
Explore potential rebranding and token migration.
✅ Financing & Expansion:
Continue Reg D fundraising efforts.
Explore alternative financing solutions (treasury token sales, structured lending).
Position CETI for hardware expansion (H200s or additional data centers).
