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…

The robotics security ecosystem remains nascent. @CarnegieMellon University @CyLab's Robotics Security & Privacy Initiative (RSPI) is a timely effort to make security and privacy first-order concerns as consumer robotics moves from prototypes to products.
This echoes lessons from automotive security. In 2016, my graduate research examined how connected vehicles relied on flat in-vehicle networks where infotainment and cyber-physical systems shared pathways, and how the industry shifted to segmented, secure architectures.
Humanoid robotics appear at a similar inflection point. RSPI’s work on AI safety and guardrails helps define the methods and controls required for trustworthy AI-driven robots. Organizations that implement these foundations early will set the standard for the field.

@CyLab wrote a great article on @hankhplee's #chi2025 paper on Purpose Mode.
He presented it today and did a great job!
PurposeMode reduces distraction on social media from 28% -> 7%. You can use it, too! It's open source :)
