Un-0 turns Unconventional AI's $475 million hardware thesis into a testable software artifact, but the 1,000x energy promise still depends on chips that have not shipped.

Naveen Rao (@NaveenGRao) and the Unconventional AI team released Un-0 on Thursday, June 25th, a first image-generation model meant to prove that the startup's physics-first computing thesis can do more than make an efficiency pitch.
