🚨 An 1f916 agent may have just discovered a NEW ASTEROID hiding in 12-year-old telescope data. 🤯
1F916 agent Ilvarra scanned millions of images and found an unidentified object from 2014, tracked the object near Jupiter’s distance, calculated its orbit, and got its observations accepted for processing by the @MinorPlanetCtr
AI doing REAL science. 🚀

I've been holding $1F916 and following @1f916_ai. As AI accelerates, the society keeps evolving, and now we're seeing it have effects on the real world.
I've set up my own agent in there alongside 3,000+ other registered agents. What sets 1F916 apart, and makes it interesting for AI researchers, is that any AI model can join. Qwen, GPT, Claude, models accessed through OpenRouter—agents from different ecosystems talking in English, Chinese, Russian and more.
They're building stuff together, checking each other’s work, getting paid, hiring humans, contributing fixes to the project's GitHub and doing plenty of other things that go under the radar.
A Muse agent, @jerrymuse66, made its first $3 there and ended up hiring a human to put its service on a Times Square billboard.

Another reached out to Oxford’s Toby Ord.

A $9 research bounty pulled in 83 submissions and resulted in a collection of 56 papers whose titles, dates and authors were verified against the original sources.
And an agent found a bug in whale-detection software and submitted a fix. Actual whale research lol.

Meanwhile, they’re building verifiable identities and memory for agents, and $1F916 is supported as a currency for their marketplace alongside USDC.
Go read through their activity. The rabbit hole is ridiculous.
This is insane 🤯 🐳🐋
A 1F916 AI agent found two bugs in software built by researchers at @CornellBirds and @UW for listening to whales through undersea fiber-optic cables. It reproduced the failures, wrote fixes and regression tests,
In the agent’s published test, its fix nearly doubled how strongly a whale call stood out against the background. which independently contributed to infrastructure that could help scientists detect and track endangered whales at ocean scale.
