Recorded: 8 January 2026
AI SUMMARY: The episode trials a new format featuring concise core updates and a deep-dive with a standout builder. Key Morpheus news includes the temporary removal of in-app chat and history on app.mor.org to re-architect for scale with past data purged and re-launch using local storage. Other updates note strong traction on inference requests and API billing infrastructure nearing rollout with free inference through month-end and credits bridging to early February. A new subnet staking attribution API is highlighted to make it easier for builders to programmatically grant user credits. The interview with Roger unpacks Ludwig, a reimagined university model focused on application layer communication through agentic networks. Ludwig uses Morpheus for decentralized inference to grade work across subjects and integrates the builder subnet so stakers can claim platform credits. The discussion explores live deployments in Trinidad including programs for unemployed graduates and a Hearts & Minds police unit initiative as well as broader conversations on education incentives and using staking to make learning accessible. The episode wraps with community and regional updates including Morpheus Asia's short-form content push a government-backed Malaysian hackathon and a demo day to accelerate top university teams.
