This is why I wash my clothes and till my soil by hand, for the machines use far more energy and resources, and that is wasteful.
Can't say enough good things about using @AskVenice for my projects.
Quite a few shots from this video and a few previous videos would get moderated and rejected when using other platforms, meanwhile Venice lets all of these prompts pass right on through to the model.
You'd be amazed at how much moderation/prompt refusal is not from the AI model itself, but instead the platform you are using and their additional layers they've added between you and said model.
@AskVenice basically treats you like an actual adult (still within reason) - a very refreshing take compared to some other similar platforms out there.

@QuintenFrancois I think it’s the dinosaur pattern. Extremely rare bullish signal.
All of them are available privately on Venice

Just a reminder that GLM 5.3 Flash, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, Qwen 3.8 Next Flash, and even Qwen 3.8 27B are all outperforming (in both intelligence and capabilities) every model that was considered "frontier intelligence" in Xmas 2025 (just 10 months ago)

Jev is now free on the Venice API 🤫
You don’t fully grasp how much of your life is tracked until you’re sitting in a courtroom, watching federal prosecutors use your digital history against you, down to your most harmless Google searches. Your entire life becomes an open book, and even your most innocent actions can be twisted into something sinister.
They get to tell the most damning version of your story. To tell yours in your own words, you have to take the stand.

Circle has integrated Venice into their agent Marketplace
Jev by @typesafeai is now on the Venice API, in beta.
It answers, it doesn't write. Send it your app's state and typed questions. Get back a typed answer your code can branch on: a probability, a chosen option, or a score on your rubric. No JSON to coax out of a chat model.

Watching the 19th century regulatory system indulging in the hubris of imagining it has any material effect on the emergence of superintelligence
🚨 Breaking: Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceX, Google sued for alleged agreement to pace AI in violation of Sherman Act
i’ve been using Venice since early beta and it’s super easy to drop in as a replacement to openai or other providers.

In light of a lot of issues with regulatory capture this trend will continue grow. I’ve moved my games and projects over to @AskVenice exclusively and no longer use Claude code for my day to day.
Big news! We just integrated @VeniceAI
Private AI on hardware you own. Jail broken and unrestricted use of ambient intelligence. Build abilities that live in the room and respond to real life, not prompts.

Also my personal favorite model right now.
Use this model privately for your agent:
deepseek-v4-1-flash
DeepSeek v4.1 flash is the first open-weight model I have used much more on a daily basis than closed-weight models from OpenAI and Anthropic. It is a MAJOR problem for US labs.
◆ Very fast over API (often 150-200+ tps)
◆ Very capable model, can do long-horizon + multiple subagent work very well.
◆ Ridiculously cheap. You don't even need a subscription at the pricing.
