Marco van Dijk has seen Livepeer from almost every angle.
✅ Core infrastructure contributor
✅ Independent GPU node orchestrator
✅ Founder of FrameWorks, sovereign video infra built on the open compute network
His story is a rare look at what happens when someone builds from inside the stack.

NEW RELEASE Scope v0.2.5 from @DaydreamLiveAI
Current image-to-agent avatars land as flat talking faces. Scope v0.2.5 sharpens conversational avatar workflows by skipping CPU offload on high-VRAM GPUs, boosting generation speed.
Last week, we shipped the tutorial for a real-time conversational AI avatar in #Scope, running on a single GPU with a 24GB VRAM floor and LTX 2.3 model. You can see the demo of it running.
This week, we are taking it further and answering the question: When does running this locally beat a cloud API?
If you are making that decision, this is for you

The expansion of @Livepeer from a transcoding network to a realtime AI video infrastructure is well underway. Here are some of the highlights, and some of the upcoming challenges for the ecosystem:
Highlights:
* AI fees represent over 60% of the share of the network.
* Quarterly fee capture at an all time high.
* Diverse AI job types from generative realtime AI video and world models, to embodied agents, to LLM inference for OpenClaw, to audio and media generation.
* Inflation rate decreasing daily for 6 months+ and continuing to fall.
* Agent-based network access through MCPs and skill files.
Challenges ahead:
* AI apps built on the network moving from development and beta into scaled production use with product market fit.
* Eliminate or reduce circular fees (Gateways using only their own hardware and not falling over to broader network for scale.)
* Better DevX for using the Network as a Product.
See @MessariCrypto Q1 2026 report on Livepeer below.

"The AI buildout so far has been about making models smarter. The next phase is about building the infrastructure to run them for billions of users." @a16z
We see this on the cutting edge of media AI. Everyone is playing with and tuning models. Soon it'll be time to build apps.

Without an open internet, all that’s left is censorship.
The internet should be what it was always meant to be, an open, accessible ecosystem.
The path forward is building open-access products built on the Livepeer network.

Daydream is the new home for open source realtime AI video and AI world models, and it has a new API and Interactive Playground built on the @Livepeer network.
Check out early users like the TouchDesigner integration which lets creatives use realtime AI without their own GPUs.
Today’s the day🚀
We’re opening the doors to the Daydream platform - API + Playground Experience🌊
We’re the world’s first hosted StreamDiffusion platform:
1⃣ No GPU required
2⃣Sub-second latency
3⃣Advanced controls that let you experiment quickly and scale seamlessly.
This is the start of an open ecosystem for real-time video and world models. Your home for open source, real-time video AI 👇🧵
