BIG NEWS! 📣 Fission has received an $800,000 USD grant to support further applied research of the InterPlanetary Virtual Machine (IPVM) protocols and the Homestar reference implementation from the Arcological Association and the IPFS Network Capital Pool.

To date, IPFS has been a project focused on data. IPVM is a spec for bringing content-addressed execution to content-addressed data on IPFS. To this end, the IPVM standard aims to be the easiest, fastest, most secure, and open way to run decentralized compute jobs everywhere.

Zama's research on the application of FHE to Large Language Models is featured on Hugging Face.
Our ML team recently discovered that FHE has the potential to safeguard both user privacy and the Intellectual Property of the model.

We just released a video tutorial to help you get started with Concrete, Zama's homomorphic encryption compiler (featuring Umut, compiler engineer at Zama) — If you're commuting tonight, you know what to watch 🟨🙂

Congrats Feross & Socket 🎉

Securing code requires securing all deps — we’ve lacked tools to do this at scale for open source. Glad to see Socket doing this🛡️

With AI accelerating code gen and attack vectors, this will get even more important 🤖🔥

1/ Solutions to the climate crisis are already here. But they're stuck in academic labs.

Often, after the basic science is done, there’s just a little more work needed to show the science has commercial potential. But no one funds this!

Introducing Manifest Climate!

🚀 Huge news! Socket has raised $20M Series A funding led by Andreessen Horowitz (@a16z).

⭐️ This funding fuels our mission to make open source safer for everyone!

🚀🚀🚀 We're also announcing 4 new products this week as part of Socket Launch Week! ✨

#FTCHackathon

Well, it happened… We hosted (with Fhenix) the first ever hackathon so you could play with Zama’s fhEVM, our private smart contract protocol using homomorphic encryption.
🏆 Here are some projects who made it to the finale. A thread 🧵📃⤵️

We are hiring GPU engineers to work on homomorphic encryption. If you like cryptography and high performance GPU programming, this is for you! jobs.zama.ai/jobs/gpu-engin… #gpu #fhe Zama
