Update your node or wallet:

https://github.com/…/AI-Power-Grid…/releases/tag/v1.4.0

The upcoming v1.4.0 hardfork marks a turning point for AIPG. Starting with this release, 50% of all emissions will go directly to AI image and text worker nodes. If you want to participate as a worker and earn $AIPG, now is the time.

__*Image Workers*__

Compatible with most NVIDIA GPUs (8GB+ VRAM)

Easiest setup: bridge to a local ComfyUI install (bridge will be released before the fork)

ComfyUI now has easy install binaries: https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI

For advanced users: run a bare metal image worker — https://github.com/AIPowerGrid/image-worker

__*Text Workers*__

Recommended: 24GB+ RAM, NVIDIA 3090/4090/5090 or A5000/A6000

Bridge available for:

* Ollama

* OpenAI API

* KoboldAI

https://github.com/AIPowerGrid/multi-bridge

Any public LLM can also be bridged in as a worker, such as ChatGPT 4.1 or even oss models hosted by public providers. This is sort of like cloud mining.

Bare metal text worker with local chat: https://github.com/AIPowerGrid/omniforge

__*Clients and front ends powered by workers*__

* Text generation developer playground: https://chat.aipowergrid.io

* Old beta art gallery (new coming in days): https://aipg.art

*Coming soon*

* Discord image generator bot powered by grid workers (available to other Discord based projects soon)

* New AI Art Gallery launch: generate, view, and mint art as NFTs

* Better chat website: streamlined chat front end and deep research app/website, plus Discord bots that answer project questions using grid text workers

**Our goal remains the same: democratize access to open, local, generative AI. Thank you to everyone who’s supported us to this point. If you want to run a worker, this is the right time to get started.**
