going great really really excited looking at all these amazing amazing
titles creation people are coming up and it's like every time I refresh I see
some amazing artworks being created it's insane how many have been created
like I knew so like I have been I've played around with like AI image
generators before but and I they're really really fun and so I thought
people would like this but you're right it's like every time I check like on the
doge or on tiles like someone a new one has been made it's like it's crazy I
think like over so like over a thousand have been published that's that's how
many of them published that's there's way more that have been made yeah it's
really cool this is interesting we'll dive into the air drop and titles but
before that we've got Kui how you doing good morning how y'all doing
what's up Kui y'all hear me okay yes yeah wonderful wonderful well you want
me to you want me to start it off with a little teens here yes definitely let's
get this room started let's go guys I'm gonna be banging off with in doge we
trust by base track base trackers here today we got weekly 121 already holy
remember to like and retweet the space fam let's go
much Wow all right let's go let's go that's my son's new favorite track yeah
this is definitely amazing this one was produced by on the doge and done by base
checkers and this was released on doge or on the doges first anniversary so
this song is really really special thank you everyone for joining once again
requesting everyone to retweet the spaces so that all our friends can join
in and with this let's get started smoke how are you doing today hey doing great
today trying it can you see on your end if Saran has been brought up I've been
trying to bring him up yes definitely I'll just invite him again awesome yeah
doing great I mean it's been a wild ride we've had an amazing campaign that
you've all seen over the last few days and just super excited to see the the
hype and the attention that we've gotten and also the really dope mints
that we've seen come through titles using our doge model like we had
mentioned we have over a thousand mints so far so if you are interested in
participating and we're going to talk about this a little later but I just
want to mention make sure to head over to titles.xyz click on our model and
yeah you can mint an NFT on base your own special creation and not only will
you be entered to win some of this airdrop and potentially be one of the
main winners that gets a larger portion but you're also going to be entered into
oh I mean you're also going to be training the doge model so each time you
imagine something and you enter it in there and you make that NFT our model
grows and learns from that as to how to be more dogely and more community owned
so I think that's a really cool aspect but I think I'm here to intro the
project right now so we are on the doge we have fractionalized the doge meme NFT
that was created by it Suko Sato and we turned it into what's called dog token
so recently a lot of people anyone that's new has seen that we dropped this
token on base but we originally are from a theory of mainnet and so you can
actually bridge that token back and forth and all of these tokens are
actually backed by the doge meme NFT which was minted by it Suko Sato she
received all of the proceeds for that and she largely gave it away to charity
and it's really something special to us and over the years we've grown and
become a really amazing community done some amazing things from building a
statue in Japan recently in November starting an international doge day we
have a Hollywood produced film in the works documenting doge's life so really
excited about the things that we've accomplished and really looking to the
future as to what can we do on base what can we build and how can we grow
this community in a way where everybody wins and everybody has the chance to
that's awesome hey Randy do you want to discuss more about the relationship we
have been recently establishing with that Suko sure what's up everybody I'm
Vandy for those that I don't know yet it's nice to meet you all so yeah so I
think I'm just gonna go over some of the other things that our community has done
in the past and then kind of talk about like why we're here and what we believe
in so I think the shoot you know what a tweet I'm talking about I think it'd be
good for us to like pin it to the top or like something like that just so everyone
can see like easily kind of what we've done in the past so one thing we do is a
lot of charity work so we are the number one donator to save the children say the
children is a charity fund that helps children in like war torn and poverty
stricken areas so we do like to use our funds to like give back to charity and
causes that we believe in another thing we did is we do a lot of NFT mints for
our pixel holders so if you don't know I'm like some people don't know the
basics of this project is like you actually own part of the doge NFT so by
owning dough by owning dog I think smoke might have mentioned this like you
actually own the NFT and so what you can do is you can actually like kind of it's
kind of like staking or so you stake your dog and you get an actual pixel of
the doge NFT randomly so you could get the nose the eyes you know whatever it's
random and by holding pixel there's something called pixel perks there have
been like tons of NFTs that we've been given away to pixel holders one of them
was like first doge which is my personal favorite it's um it's the first ever
photo taken of kabosu we can probably link that somewhere at the top as well
it's like an extremely cool collectible yeah so that's one thing we've done
another thing we've done is I'm not sure smoke mentioned this but we did do
International Doge Day so every year on kabosu's birthday in Japan where kabosu
is from it's actually a national holiday where we celebrate kabosu's birthday so
that we did that another thing we've done is in the same park like smoke
mentioned we created a statue the statue has kabosu on it it's a bunch of
atsuko's cats and things like that and yeah so I think why we're here is we
believe in like this idea of provenance and like meme coins like if they really
want to be cultural stores of value it's best that they they have some kind
of like substance to them but they have some kind of backing and some maybe some
relevance and benefits to the source of the meme so for example dogecoin you
know we love everyone knows what dogecoin is we love dogecoin but
technically the the meme of doge was actually taken and used without any
benefits to the source of the meme atsuko or kabosu and that kind of spurred
this idea of like meme artists whether it's the photographer or the meme
itself they should benefits from the meme if possible and then the meme
itself if possible should be kind of backed by something just so that it can
it can have long-lasting values I'm not sure if a lot of people have seen
recently but like for example a famous let's say let's just pick a meme let's
just pick like Harambe for example you can go on like any chain there's
probably a hundred different Harambe coins right but if you really want to
have like a culturally significant coin that lasts a long time it has to be
backed by something like where did this meme originate and how can we give it
substance whether it's like the the pictures the memes ties to the
photographer or something like that and so that's this idea of provenance like
we we are connected to the source of the meme and that's kind of coming back
to to the coin that's been airdropped in dog is you actually own the meme itself
in dog and it has close ties to the actual dog and the owner of the dog so
that's kind of what why we're here and what we believe in and yeah we're gonna
keep kind of preaching that that message as we as we build
that's amazing one one fact is that today the first image of kabosu which was ever taken
and minted by us as an NFT which we call the first doge NFT has turned one year old on the
blockchain so this is really interesting and kind of just ties us back to provenance and where
that meme and where the image actually origin from so this image was actually you know who are
posted on a glucose blog like years before doge actually even became a thing and became popular
and people who are a part of the doge couch auction which we held back last year in the
in the episode of pleaser house organized by please now you and the people who are able to mint
the first image of kabosu i'm just trying to find a tweet right now so that i can pin it and we'll
probably also do another follow-up tweet about that but this is something which is really interesting
and one little correction over there is that in order to get pixels you do not really have to
stake your dog it's just locking your dog into the pixel portal and minting or visualizing your
ownership in the actual doge meme and just like mandy said you'll actually be able to see which
coordinate on this digital meme estate you hold so pixels are like your first class ticket to
unlimited doge entertainment for all our activations all our partnerships what we try
is keeping pixel holders at the pedestal and try to build around them so pixel holders are
definitely someone to benefit the most out of all the partnerships and all the activations we do
and probably it's just something so fun that you own an actual picture
actual pixel of the doge meme so this is something which is really interesting and which is very
very fascinating yeah and if you want to follow the first doge fan page it's
at first doge nft um yeah like first doge content is posted on there also the open c link
is attached to that twitter page as well if you want to look at the collection
yeah i love that that's one of the things that really impressed me about vandy uh being in our
community because vandy has been a die-hard nfd supporter and as well as dog uh for a long time
now but he really just came out of nowhere and decided that he wanted to make a fan page for
first doge and just run it himself for free just for fun um and i thought that was really powerful
and that's one of the reasons why i reached out to him when we had the opportunity and asked him
to be on the team because we could see that he's in it for all the right reasons and a lot of people
you know they hang around but they always have like ulterior motives but the people who are there
because they love what's going on they want to make friends which i think you guys have seen it
but on chain uh featured soren recently and a quote that he made about the fact that basically
what we're all doing here is just trying to meet our best friends make memes have fun chill and
find people we can relate to so i think that that's really one of the most powerful things
that comes from these relationships and these projects hell yeah
such wow i i think like just one one more thought especially on the like
the the history and kind of provenance piece is it really like i think sometimes we can feel like
that stuff's far off and distant and unattainable but like i think what i've really come to terms
with is that like we're all really toiling with that endeavor every day here like it really is
early days in terms of like how you can contribute to the provenance of memes and be part of those
you know internet cultures so i never feel like it's like you know you're isolated or
removed from that it's like everybody in the room here is kind of currently contributing to that
factor so hats off to y'all love it um now let's just jump to the elephant in the room so yesterday
around 500 000 wallets were airdrop dog tokens on base we airdropped nearly about 770 million dog
on base chain for people who are active on base so i'm just gonna read out the communities which
were involved and you can you know just go through it and probably you can also check
your wallets on the base chain and see if you receive the dog airdrop and again smoke is gonna
come in and talk about all the things which are happening and will happen so that you can know how
to get more involved with the airdrop coming up in the following days uh the communities which were
airdropped yesterday were degen base paint speed tracer game yellow collective mochi toshi thank
you base card base fellas tiny base frog dog nfd holders on ethereum chain pixel holders uh
airdrome lp providers and top 1500 rainbow point holders so these are the communities which were
airdrop dog tokens if you also held base on chain somewhere nfts or probably any of the base nfts
which were which were you know just used by base and on chain somewhere initiative and base
campaigns you will also be eligible and the contract addresses will be found in the medium
article attached to the tweet which is pinned above you can go through the medium article to
find in-depth analysis and in-depth details about which contract addresses are eligible
and lastly we also airdrop people who are really active on base so if you had more than 40
transactions on base you probably received a dog airdrop so these are the three portions of
yesterday's airdrop communities then based on chain somewhere nft holders and then people who
are active on base and now smoke will tell you about how you can get more involved and probably
be eligible for the further rounds of airdrop account yes and i i think you said this i just
want to go over it very quickly but i'm almost positive you said it so we made sure to include
dog holders nft holders and pixel holders in the drop as well so people look out we want to make
sure that the people who've been loyal to our project are benefiting from everything that we do
and also last second we did add the frame community so shout out to the frame community
especially my buddy gray who really kind of showed me the vision and i'm really excited
about what they're doing so we did add frame to the drop and we will likely shortly revise the
medium article but i have updated both the x post and the forecaster post with farcaster
post with that information um beyond that yeah so we have a really dope way for you to participate
today in this airdrop let me just take a look because there are actually two ways for you to
three ways for you to participate one will be if you transact or bridge on base
let me just go because we have a few different options here two seconds
yeah so anybody who transacts on base within the next 72 hours
and anybody who bridges with the super bridge app now when i say 72 hours that's from when
the drop actually occurred which was yesterday so you've got about 48 hours if you transact on base
if you use the super bridge app or and bridge to base then you will actually be applicable for a
secondary airdrop and then the most amazing part of this competition is the fact that we have an
awesome relationship with titles who has been building an amazing ai product that continues to
astound me and grow and change over time led by the legendary soren and his very capable team
parker and other devs and this project basically has a doge ai model that was modeled after our
project in many ways and after the doge meme so what they did was they fed different images
from our project from the basis of the doge meme into the model which helped to train it to become
what it is now and like i mentioned earlier everybody who participates and makes a cool doge
image is training this ai to become more dogely so 300 000 usd up for grabs if you join this
competition the website is titles.xyz very innovative platform you go in you mint on base
it's i believe it's totally free gas is very very minimal and you yeah you just mint the nft and if
you like some that you see on there they're all up for mint so make sure that you look at other
peoples and that you mint your favorites because one of the parts of the competition is the people
who get the most mints are going to be applicable for higher prizes so make sure that you support
your friends and the people that you think did an amazing job with their nft by minting it and then
that's the gist of it i to go into it very briefly we had i'm sure you guys saw we had a large viral
campaign that we planned along with titles and base that was very successful we're super proud of
the work that we've done and we know that the work has just started i want to give a shout out to
every person who has reached out to us over the last 24 to 48 hours we've had about 60 projects
and tech companies that are building that have directly contacted us and dm's twitter x rather
you name it and we plan to figure out what we can do with every one of these projects
we're here to stay on base and we're really excited to work with everyone
that's amazing we've also got serene today with us who is the founder of titles platform and can
provide more in-depth analysis and we've got some questions lined up for you serene but before that
let me just touch briefly upon how people can get more involved again so it's going to be a secondary
era which is going to happen in the next 48 hours so yesterday we announced it and it was 72 hours
now two days remain if you use the super bridge app which has been created especially for us to
bridge bridge your tokens bridge your dog from ethereum to base you'll be eligible and if you
do base transactions then you'll be eligible so these are the two things which you need to do
in the next 48 hours and you will probably be eligible for receiving another round of dog
air drop and then lastly we've got titles so serene can you briefly touch upon what this
platform is probably explain uh what this platform is about and probably also touch
upon the partnership we have going on absolutely um it's uh really good to be in here and it's also
uh fantastic to see a bunch of faces that i've already seen using the tool and publishing and
what i call extending the doge universe for sure um so i guess to talk about things from
you know the genesis point for all of this um you know we started titles with the idea that
more and more people were starting to publish essentially creative work um and there are really
other you know their ip at the end of the day on chain and what was most most unique to us was
this idea that all of these nft collections that end up on chain have attribution to produce them
and who owns them and that specifically you can create payout addresses to those
and so when ai started to kind of make material progress specifically on the creative front
what we got really excited about is the opportunity to turn a lot of that ip
into ai models that make it much easier for people to take existing imagery and ip and be able to
extend it in new ways right and so when you look at doge for example you know what do people do
with it right they take this core asset that people love and they turn it into all these
different essentially derivatives and memes and so uh when we got to know the team at own the doge
you know we thought and that exciting opportunity would be to turn that core piece of ip into a model
in which the entire community of holders and can essentially uh proliferate the doge meme and so
titles at the core of it is kind of two parts one it's a creative tool that makes it really easy
for you to use these custom trained models um just like the doge one and then two it's an nft
publishing protocol that sits beneath that so when you create something that you really think
is awesome and the community should see you're able to publish that super simply and easily
but then it also attributes the core collection that you are essentially creating a derivative
of and so you create that cultural connection right and further it also passes some of the
proceeds from that collection back to the doge foundation and so every time a new collection is
produced essentially what's happening is this money is going back to the doge foundation that
they can use to in a variety of different meme or means to essentially further kind of the entire
ecosystem and so like in aggregate you know what we're really talking about here is simple creative
tools to further and spread the doge meme and kind of create this together effect right where
we're all creating stuff to further kind of this this core thing that we all love and so to talk
about it in the context of the product today and you know this activation you know we started to
get to know tube and smoke and path and this whole crew here and we got really excited about the
opportunity to take this doge model and then involve it within this airdrop and so it's really
really cool to see kind of uh you know the dog token moving over to base and and being a part of
this ecosystem now and seeing it kind of take off in the context that it is um and furthermore
it's really fun to kind of see how you can use the dog token to kind of incentivize people to
expose like expose other people through other means just like titles and so in terms of uh
what you can do today um uh you can go on the titles website um or mobile application but
you can go to titles dot xyz tit les slash um doge and when you go there you can click contribute
and it'll pull up essentially a creation portal or a creative tool set where you can generate doge
memes and then be able to publish those directly on base really simply and easily and so when you
do that right all of those addresses are essentially being aggregated where then they'll be a part of
essentially that airdrop that we've been talking about um and there's kind of two more layers to
it we're touching on there is the best doge um which is uh through all of these different
um doge memes that are being produced um the dog team is going to essentially pick out um
some of their favorites and so we've had about let me look real quick
um how many how many different collections we've have produced so far we have 1200 collections
produced in the last day so that's about a collection every minute that's happening right
now and some of these are really really fantastic um and so what the dog team is going to do is
scour through all of those and be able to pick out you know essentially um uh their favorites
and uh the top prize is uh one million dog second place is 400 000 and third place is 200 000
and then the second way you can also earn extra dog is essentially through the top 50 most minted
submissions and so similarly first place gets a million dog and then it uh goes down over time
um and there's lots of different ways to earn so the the what's most interesting to me about
minting these things as well is that by the community minting those we're figuring out
which ones are the best that we should actually include and uh retrain the model on and so as you
produce more and more collections all this media is then going to essentially be reinvested and
we're going to retrain the model and make it even better um and so this is really like kind of awesome
kind of flywheel that's happening right where more and more doge memes get proliferated creates the
better doge model that model gets better and affect what we're going to create is the world's
best doge AI model um where anyone can come in and create and further kind of um further the
community at the end of the day so i think that's probably a lot to cut and cover in one fail swoop
but uh let me know if there's any further questions on that front
yeah i love that i think it's amazing um i think we do have an interview style portion that we
wanted to get into so let me just make sure that this is the right timing we may have lost a couple
of our hosts we're seeing some really weird glitches going on right now with the space so
just bear with us it looks like gooey and vandy have temporarily disappeared for some reason
all good everywhere has bugs these days lots of tech being built yes for sure yeah yeah that's
pretty weird but i've got a follow-up question on that i mean i really love the platform i have been
using the platform and i see that you know you can create really really great doge images and
the fact that this doge AI model is self-training so you know as you feed in data and as it you know
produces results it's actually also learning from that data so this is something which is very very
interesting and i can probably also see i mean i was like one of the first users of the platform
when the when the when it actually launched and you know you can just see that how it's kind of
you know just improving by each each uh each thing you create on it but i just want to know
how did you come up with this idea of probably you know just um bring building this platform
on titles and probably building this on base and specifically the base chain
yeah i mean i think you know the idea about titles is really kind of you know the problem
that we set out to solve is is helping creators own the things that they put on the internet
right so like as more and more people move online as more and more of us essentially make our
livings online right and it's more and a big part of that being you know creative media um you know
i think what we've seen with web2 overall is that like one we don't own our identities we don't own
our networks um but moreover right the kind of exchange that we're making in those networks
right is not only as we add followers that we're also giving away the ownership of the pieces of
media that we put on there and so you know ethereum and rather the all the evml2s represent
you know a really interesting opportunity to essentially you know empower the user
with specifically that provenance and attribution that vandy was talking about and most uniquely
right what happens when you know you allow people to own the pieces of media that they publish um
and so you know we got really excited about that idea right it's like what is ethereum what does
that all mean um and you know what we found as we were starting to build was that it's incredibly
unique essentially infrastructure for kind of ai first creative tools um in that everything
that's produced right can can be tracked as provenance and if you look at kind of a lot of
the discourse that centers around kind of ai first creative tools um like mid-journey there are a lot
of attribution and ownership problems that are going on there um and people are getting a lot
of value out of the tool but a lot of people are being left out of that and so what we thought was
really cool is just the opportunity to say hey what would that look like if you use crypto again
to kind of benefit the creators and the people that are adding the cultural value to it
um and then in terms of base i just think like it's pretty simple which is just um
cheaper faster better transactions more liquidity more accessibility all of that makes you know is
the same reason why you want to move dog token up to base is that it makes it more accessible for
everyone to you know be able to participate and be able to trade in and kind of allow that coin to
reflect kind of the cultural movements that are happening there and so you know in terms of um
you know moving titles up to base and and you know having the doge ai model up there it's it's
pretty simple it's just hey it's cheaper publishing which is allows more accessibility for everyone
right and that means more memes more fun and more laughs
i love that i have a couple of questions for you uh how do you guys see titles progressing over
time maybe within the next year or so are there certain features that you can imagine that you'd
like to see implemented or mainly like just as far as the tool itself in the platform do you see
what do you see for the future of titles yeah so i mean the thing that we've learned very
specifically over the last you know three months and has become completely clear to us is that we
should open up the opportunity for really any individual ip owner or creator to be able to
essentially upload a collection train a model on that and then offer that for other people to use
based off of essentially does anyone want to use it or should there be conditions right and so
allow people to essentially um do what we're doing with this doge model but um across the board
and what's most fascinating to me about that is that there is this unique opportunity for
cross-pollination as well so the question becomes hey you know what's your favorite other pfp
collection and if they have a model inside of titles and then all of a sudden you can also use
the doge model in conjunction of making essentially a new collection you start to get these cultural
crossovers that haven't existed before and that you know i've created a doge you know with you
know um you know a galverse writing the back of it right so you have this like anime meets right
doge kind of imagery and that's just i think um i think there's going to be a lot of really interesting
and fun kind of new types of media that will materialize for that so to kind of ground all
that it's just hey can we open this opportunity up for more and more creators to be able to
train their own models and and be able to kind of benefit from that and then i think too it's like
we launched this web application pretty quickly um we have the mobile application that people
have been using for some time it's just make that product 100 times better right um and so i'm sure
a lot of people in the room may have encountered some bugs here or there and by the way i'm always
open to talk about those and help you get those fixed um we want to hear about them and so um if
you have those issues then let me know um and we're just going to make the product you know 100 times
better over the next couple months yeah i mean i was so impressed by the speed at which you guys
have built out this web this web experience and really how smooth it's been so yeah big ups to
the devs and to your whole team for just really rising to the challenge above and beyond what
we've seen a lot of other projects be able to actually handle so really impressive
yeah we appreciate that a lot i'm sure i'll relay that to our team and yeah i mean i think
the way to cap it all off is we want to build the best platform for creators to kind of um you know
allow their communities and groups to kind of use their ip to further um kind of you know their own
little meme in a sense right absolutely i think we may find memes are born through titles at some
point you know especially with the remix aspect that you guys are planning on implementing i think
that giving creators the tools giving people the tools to as you mentioned own their own ip
own their own digital identity be able to create and really taking a lot of the stigma as you
mentioned away from ai because i have seen um i've seen some amazing ai artists i'm a big fan of ai
i dropped a collection didn't go anywhere it was just for fun on salana a couple years ago using
dali um but i think that there's really unlimited potential with ai and i definitely agree the fact
that people feel that their work can be stolen or that they can't truly own what they're creating
has been a huge blocker and i think that the kind of collaborative concepts that you guys
and uh some people within the tech realm have started utilizing and building upon is really
what's going to open that floodgate for people to be able to have fun enjoy ai and use it for all
of its benefits rather than worrying about you know quote unquote is this fake art because i
think it's very real art and i think we just need to uh understand how the blockchain works and use
it to its full potential to really fully grasp what what we have here yeah and i think too the
thing that we're excited about is you know the word attribution right i think is like
a very tricky one in that like most people want attribution to be perfect and i it's you know
it's almost an impossible feat and you know i think what i'm most excited about is how you can use
attribution enabled by ethereum to help build connections between people and you know and so
in the specific context here you know what we've seen already within essentially what's it been 24
hours a little 24 uh 26 hours um over 26 hours we've seen you know a ton of people now become
exposed to you know dog on base and the doge foundation um and they've now become a part of
that materially by participating in creating something that reflects them but in the doge
kind of uh with through the doge eyes in a sense right and so i think that's like the unique thing
right is when you offer some new type of asset new type of creative tool for people to take in
a new direction what they do in effect is you can now build like a new you know new contextual kind
of connection and that's that's awesome yeah i couldn't agree more and i just think that in this
this is probably one of the best collaborations i've ever seen our project do um i've maybe i've
ever seen on the internet at least in the last couple of years and i think it's because so many
people put so much work into making sure that this happened so many projects collaborated together
i mean just to name a few you have titles base super bridge on the doge we have a ton of partners
that between myself and soren we reached out to and contacted that we knew over the years and worked
with over the years and now we're starting to see that cross-pollination i'm having different people
that we've worked with say what is this titles uh platform this is amazing and they're actually
reaching out and saying for example oshi gallery we're doing an exhibit there and now oshi gallery
wants to work with titles uh we're working on a doge toy with a certain toy company they were
floored by what they saw with titles and they want to do more with them as well and the same with
titles they had a lot of connections within base that they brought to us that are starting to look
at us and say wow what are you guys up to and a hundred percent can't be understated the masterful
brilliant plan that path had was in the audience here to actually make this airdrop a reality
uh plan out uh meticulously a way where we could spread this these tokens out uh so that a lot of
people are able to participate but at the same time uh various communities are rewarded uh lp
providers and you name it um and just the whole process we've had uh a lot of brilliant minds that
have made this possible and i'm just really excited because i know that our project was
interested in getting on base for the past year uh or longer since we realized especially zona
and our previous dab gainer who we called dad they were very bullish on base um and i think they
would be really happy to see that we actually did pursue and are continuing to pursue this because
i think we can all feel it there's something really special happening on base right now
um i got a quick question for you soren so i don't know how long titles has been around
but like from what my very small understanding of ai is like you have to train a model for a very
long time for it to like be effective i guess um so like a two-part question is like how did you
make this model so work so well under what i assume is like not that much time and then like
the second part is um like as it trains like what does what does it look like when it gets
smarter and better in terms of like producing memes like what are the things you're looking
forward to like it's like okay it is getting smarter and like creating better memes
yeah 100 so um you know if we kind of just rewind a little bit um in terms of kind of like the ai
world you know over the last couple years what we've seen is material advancements right and
essentially training techniques that allow for um you know llm's image generation models you know
you go down the line and what's kind of gone on there right is that there's been kind of two
classifications of models that um have kind of entered the world one is is just the kind
of open source ecosystem and then the second is is the closed source right so you know open ai
being a classic example of of someone that's started out in a very open context and moved very
closed um and so you know what's happened in the image generation space is you can go on websites
like hugging face for example and there are hundreds now of essentially open source image
generation models that have been produced there uh and so those models a lot of those take you
know a ton of time to train um but what's happened now is that a lot of these different communities
are essentially taking different variations of those open source models and taking data
sets specifically on top of those and refining them over time and so that process is actually
doesn't take nearly as long right um we just curate you curated data set that you think is
going to reinforce and train the model to perform better um and so you take a lot of these existing
open source models and and you kind of further them forward into the direction that you want
and so um one way to think about this is it's kind of like if you go by you know a Leica camera body
and then you buy six or seven lenses right each of those lenses is going to essentially take your
photography in a different direction it's a little bit like that right in that you have the body which
is like this core open source model um that it does things generally okay right but then you
stick on these lenses and they become really performant at a specific type of task and so that's
what we have with the doge model um and then the second question right was around essentially
what does it look like going forward
am i right about that bandy yeah it was like um like as the model is being trained
like what are you looking for to be like okay like our AI model is getting better and smarter
like what are the things you're looking you're looking for yeah so there's kind of two um
kind of ways to think about this one is what's the quality of the generation that's been output
right so like um a lot of the images for example have like you know which i think is awesome like
six legs right and you know that'll be that's pretty funny and like creates this kind of unique
canny output and then a ton of them are like entirely photorealistic in some senses right
and so you get this band right of essentially good imagery super photorealistic all the way through
essentially things that are broken in a sense um and so you know it comes down to the artistic
perspective right which is like what do you value right do you do you want a model that can kind of
go in like can produce imagery in like a really weird and wacky way then you probably take a lot
of the imagery that's not perfect right and you'd further train it on that and see what comes from
that right or if you want to go super photorealistic route right um then what you do is you further
train the model um on the best imagery that you've essentially produced with it and so
that's that's the goal here is of effectively kind of imagery that could be then uh further
train and further make the model better now the question is is like how do we approximate that
right and so you can just look through all of them um and say hey that these are the best ones
um or two what's really interesting is that people can mint these things and they can say hey i think
that's really reflective of like the dojo verse in a sense right and i think that's really cool
it's like this means of essentially curating through capital right it's like am i willing to
say hey that this thing is of value right um through essentially a mint and so hopefully
what we see over time is that people mint essentially the images that they think um are
the best images that they want to see kind of the model taken forward and from a creative perspective
so um from the next steps on this end is you know none of these images are like recursively training
the model just yet but what we can do is we can actually take these and then train them again
right so um uh we'll uh kind of talk about that as next steps overall but there's a really
interesting kind of creative question that you know the entire community has ahead of it
yeah that's super super cool when i was doing some ai doge stuff i did find that like it did do
both like i did make a dog with like eight legs which was funny but then i also made like a glass
blue glass dog that like i mean you couldn't tell if it was real or fake like it was very impressive
um so i can see i saw that one yeah yeah so that was like i was like man like it's it's cool that
i can do like the really really realistic stuff but if you want to like get goofy and funny with
it like it can do both those things right now yeah absolutely i just want to jump into like i know
so it's what what sarin's saying is true like so i i do want to clarify like i say that
everything we do is training it i i actually believe that but i understand that uh definitely
it's good to make the differentiation that we as human beings have the ability to train the ai
when we decide to train the ai um but i am of the belief that if now in the very near future it will
be possible for these ai platforms or programs to actually learn from each instance that they
encounter regardless if a human has told them to remember what they've seen uh so i think that'll
probably become a philosophical debate in the future but i do think that it's just ai is becoming
more and more powerful and we're wondering where's the line where will the line be in two years from
now one year from now um we've already seen if anyone's uh familiar with it's called a q
q asterisk um mechanism uh it's a it's a with quantum computing and basically supposedly
they've seen instances where ai is learning without a learning model and then furthermore
potentially going beyond any training that it's being given um in which cases they've called those
lab leaks and they've actually been shut down for the most part supposedly but i think that
we're seeing that there's a really something powerful happening in ai that maybe we won't
even be able to fully control in a few years from now so i think it's very important how we use it
now what we decide to proliferate and i think the fact that titles came to us and was struck by the
doge meme and the doge concept and the fact that we're always out here talking about do only good
every day and building community being happy being silly i think that's a really important
thing for the future of ai to have these memes that have such community values within them uh
being spread out into the world because maybe one day when if we can't control it these memories
that's cool that's amazing hey um was somebody speaking i probably did not hear mom yeah i lost
my audio too for a second yeah i think they're shutting us down we know too much yeah it's
probably getting glitchy for you know doing anything from the official accounts right now
just because like we've getting we've been getting so much of traction but yeah this is really really
interesting and one quick uh one quick uh alert is that please be aware of any scam links any fishing
links because whenever some big airdrop happens and we've been seeing this a lot lately is that
you should always and always rely on all the official links and only and only the official
communications if you face any troubles if you face any issues you can definitely connect with
anybody who has this doge icon you can see you know um smoke has that wandy boob kooie path so
if you can you know if you have any troubles you can reach out to us you can double check the
information you have with us we have our socials channels all active you can open a ticket in the
discard you can reach out to us in our telegram channel and we will definitely be there to help
you out but please be aware of clicking on any links especially which are being proliferated on
x those are mostly scammers and we do not want anyone to lose their tokens to fishing scams
so please be aware and also follow our socials i think boob has linked the link tree we have
so you should follow our socials follow us on x follow us on instagram follow us on farcaster
and within some span of time you would know that that is rewarding in some way or the other so
follow the doge yes extremely important uh just as shub has mentioned we've had hundreds maybe a
thousand people reaching out wondering where is their airdrop maybe they think they got the wrong
amount maybe they think that they sent us money somehow to our contract or to our wallet
and we have been answering them as quickly as possible and in some cases yes it might be that
you know we something that we're going to each question we look into but we have to be mindful
for our team for our social media and everything else that there are a lot of scammers out there
with scam links so we need to be extremely careful make sure just as you mentioned you
in the community if you see somebody that seems like they're posting a link they shouldn't be
in our discord in our telegram or underneath any of our twitter posts now is going to be the time
where they're going to try to you know make a fake fake airdrop link or you name it um and again if
you see disgruntled anyone disgruntled you know uh advise them to come to us we'll work with them
the best we can but unfortunately when an airdrop happens you have a lot of different people come
out of the woodwork and some of them are not sincere so
one uh do we have any more questions for serene any more questions related to the airdrop any
more questions for titles in general as a platform i think the only thing i would mention by the way
is that um you know create wants to qualify for the airdrop for the for the um 100 million dog
but for the second two prize tiers you can create as many times as you want and so you know the more
things that you produce the better chance you have to win essentially the the top um um prizes um
and secondarily you know mint your favorite other ones right i think like that's going to be like a
curation for you know what other things you know what signals can you provide to the dog team that
sees like what what are you know the the favorite um ones that are being produced and so you know
it supports the community it supports the uh the foundation as well and so um yeah mint here or
there definitely helps um uh for sure so uh i just want to drop that in and yeah of course
the last thing would be just you know feel free to dm me if you have any questions around bugs or
or the product experience and then um yeah always open for more questions
that's awesome once again just repeating how you can participate in the further airdrops to come
the next airdrop is going to happen in probably the next 48 hours or so um so for participating
in that all you need to do is do some you know do some swaps on base if you if you if your wallet
is active on base you should probably be rewarded and you should you can also use the super bridge
tap which they created especially for us it's zero p platform and you can use that to bridge your
bridge from ethereum to base so these are the two things you can also see more details in the tweets
which are pinned above and i definitely recommend going in and reading the medium article if you
need more details about the airdrop we have covered everything which is there to cover in
that we have covered all the contract addresses which were eligible for the previous airdrop
the contract addresses for especially the communities which are involved repeating them
dgen base paint speed tracer game yellow collective mauji toshi thank you base card based fellas tiny
base frogs dog nfte holders dark pixel holders aerodrome lp providers and top 1500 rainbow
points holders these are the communities which were offered uh the airdrop and we also had a few
nfes which were based on jane summer nfes and base campaign nfes those were like somewhat 16
number you can definitely go in check the contract addresses and then if you had more than 40
transactions on base then you were eligible for the airdrop which happened previously
also recommend checking out the title's platform we have had more than 1200 submissions for now
and 100 million dog is up for grabs that is equal to 300 000 in my opinion i guess yeah i think it's
300 000 the price is kind of fluctuating but i think it's probably more than that
so definitely go check it out do some crazy crazy doge ai generated images posted on x posted on
farcaster for getting a boost and you can also read more about the boost and how you can you
know just get more involved in the medium article but once again follow titles follow us follow
serene follow all the speakers over here and turn on turn on the notifications for our x channel
because you'll be getting more information on how to participate further and have a happy weekend
