Episode Details

Zion, hear me! For Season 2 of the Mere Morpheus podcast I'm going to be uploading the Morpheus builder weekly updates. My reason for doing this is to make it more accessible for those who want an update directly via their podcast app and to have them all in one place. If you'd like to participate they are held weekly on the @MorpheusAIs Twitter spaces. So enjoy Episode #70!

Recorded: 23 April 2026 

AI SUMMARY: This episode features Rob from DRM3 introducing Cashew a community‑first block explorer for Morpheus that surfaces providers models staking stats and subnet data with plans for capital contract coverage and time‑series insights. It also covers Morpheus shipping Version 7 with full TEE phase‑2 support enabling end‑to‑end private attested inference between consumer nodes and TEE‑tagged models achieved with Secret Labs. The discussion includes latest model updates (Kimi 2.6, GLM 5.1, Qwen 3.6, GPT‑Image 2) the push for auditable agent workflows via DRM3 provenance and why decentralisation and data privacy matter as AI expands into science and healthcare. It closes on industry moves community plans for demos and weekly town halls and upcoming appearances at Consensus.
