It's an honor to collaborate with the brilliant minds at
@CarnegieMellon and @CyLab.
As AI evolves from single products into complex ecosystems, defining how value is created and shared is more important than ever.
At @anaxilabs , we are committed to building the infrastructure that rewards contributors fairly.
The journey has just begun! 🌐📷🤝
A new collaboration between @CarnegieMellon and @anaxilabs aims to tackle one of the biggest unanswered questions in artificial intelligence: how the rapidly expanding #AI ecosystem should distribute the economic value it creates. @mintstudio_ai cylab.cmu.edu/news/2026/04/0…
