what's chutes ai?
Chutes AI is a decentralized, serverless AI compute platform built on Bittensor's subnet 64 (SN64). It enables users to deploy, scale, and run open-source large language models and AI tools in production, powering trillions of tokens processed monthly. The platform supports features like fiat and stablecoin payments, with all revenue auto-staked to its alpha token. It serves thousands of paying customers and millions of users, integrating models for chat, image generation, and video processing. Chutes focuses on decentralized GPU compute to meet growing AI inference demand.
Chutes AI discusses TEE rollouts, infrastructure, revenue, and product launch on Feb 6.
