@everyone Tomorrow, we introduce to you all Altare 13 (formerly Revenact)

You’ll all be very happy I’m sure


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

Once the Discord is all set up and back to normal we’ll be professional


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

I don’t think Altare is dying this time


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

@everyone hello people who wants to see?


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

13


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

@everyone As Altare 13 begins operations - from 4 Sept, all users of Altare Cloud (legacy) and what used to be Revenact (legacy) will be migrated to the Altare Cloud Console

It’s the first platform that integrates our new brand and design system, using IBM’s Carbon UI. We think it’s very smooth and nice to use compared to earlier design systems and will be a great fit for Altare

We will have another announcement shortly for Arc and free hosting

@everyone Altare 13 will begin operations on Sep 8

Altare Cloud is already operational. Our edge network is functioning alongside all Cloud products. Hosting will become available on the 8th with limited locations, full availability on the 13th. Altare Model Factory will be available on the 8th with Arc and Arc Code being available some time between the 8th and 13th


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

Initially, Arc Code will be available completely for free with the same limits we plan to introduce on an Ultra tier plan in the future


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

-

Similar to Meta, we will introduce a “contributor” version of Arc Magnus that is extremely cheap and uses far less of your limits. Usage may be used to train future Altare models, if you want no data retention or usage then you can use the normal models

Benchmarks of Magnus 1.1: Altare’s Arc Magnus 1.1 model sits on the same point in most benchmarks as Opus/Fable and GPT 5.6 Sol. This is thanks to a significantly more advanced foundation model and more compute being available to us, alongside a new experiment to operate autonomous AI researchers which has turned out excellently for us. We have been trying to do this for a while due to the small size of Altare’s team and it has turned out well

Patrick (tehopatrick, 905351880119549962)

All made possible by me btw


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

We are delaying it like a day or two because someone deployed all of the infrastructure except the nodes for Altare hosting


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

We are blaming @Patrick (tehopatrick, 905351880119549962) for this


Patrick (tehopatrick, 905351880119549962)

Hi


Lirn (lirnn, 1230563250752458753)

we have spent the last 11 hours blaming you


Patrick (tehopatrick, 905351880119549962)

D:


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

it is clearly patrick’s fault and not mine


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

obviously


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

the big 13 approaches


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

@everyone Before the return of Altare, I’d just like to show the few people here something we have made (presumably in the future when we’re back to 20k people will scroll up and see this)

Across the span of a week, using an internal version of an Arc Magnus model, we completely rewrote Docker in Rust. It’s called Alchemy and performs dramatically better than Docker. It uses Youki internally instead of runc and works extremely well, it has close to 1:1 CLI and API compatibility and passes our very strict security and bug testing

Altare has began running it in production as a replacement for Docker. The same principle has been applied to other things Altare uses such as Pterodactyl, it has been rewritten in Rust and called Halogen and also works perfectly with Cryogenic (our existing Rust based daemon) and Alchemy

matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

At some point over the next month, we will make Alchemy, Halogen, Cryogenic all open source in case anyone would like to use it or at least have a dig through the codebase to confirm it’s not AI slop


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

alright fine keep your announcement


matt james (mattjzmes, 1049816501567373383)

if you get arrested for pedophilia its not my problem


Patrick (tehopatrick, 905351880119549962)

I am attracted exclusively to dead squirrels


Patrick (tehopatrick, 905351880119549962)

Although live ones are nice for the resistance sometimes
