Description
<p>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 #58!<br /><br />Recorded: 15 January 2026 <br /><br />AI SUMMARY: This week's builders update highlights Morpheus developments including updated API docs and extended free API access. It explains that scale will come from agents and workflows not simple chat and demonstrates building AI Research OS by switching from centralised providers to Morpheus' marketplace. This mixed specialised models for better depth efficiency and latency outperforming centralised tools. The update also covers inference economics privacy needs and security concerns. It advises new builders to start with n8n and architect first then implement. <br /><br />Timeline: <br />(00:00:00) Intro<br />(00:00:39) Morpheus updates: docs, app and billing timeline<br />(00:05:40) Introducing AI Research OS and the deep research gap<br />(00:08:43) From centralised to open: Venice and Morpheus switch<br />(00:10:29) Choosing models for cost, latency and quality<br />(00:15:45) VC subsidies, data trade-offs and excess capacity<br />(00:18:03) Privacy as insurance and looming "oh no" moment<br />(00:22:12) Phishing, deepfakes and on-chain verification<br />(00:26:11) What tools the team uses for privacy-first building<br />(00:29:05) AI Research OS results vs GPT, Gemini, Perplexity<br />(00:33:26) Idea people, infra realities and a live build idea<br />(00:36:37) Regional regulations: bans and access workarounds<br />(00:39:32) DAI adoption across regions and open models trend<br />(00:41:56) Closing: next builders, workbench and thought leadership </p> <p><br /><br />If you would like to support me for the value I provide you can use the referral link below when depositing capital and we will both earn bonus MOR.
